This is not good. Zoey being cut up? "Mom" baking us a cake? We don't even have ingredients to make one.

She said the cake was special though.

It smelled horrible as gas from our stove filled the kitchen. I saw the redish peach cake batter on the counter behind it.

Looking at it, a tooth plopped to the surface.

This isn't a normal cake.

This, was Zoey.

These thoughts were flooding my mind and a tear fell from my eye. 

Why is this happening? How did I even end up in this situation? Why?! Why? Why. Why..

I looked up from the puddle I made from my tears, wiping my eyes, and drying my coloring book.

No. I shouldn't worry.

I will get out of here

Alive.

As I was thinking, Roman came up to me.

"Hey, you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm just being weird, right?"

"Wait wha-"

"Yeah", I said, sniffling.

"H-hey I'm sorry. I-I didn't mean it. R-Really..", he stuttered.

"Its fine, I guess.", I said.

"I was just trying to-"

"I said it's fine, Roman.", I said loudly.

"I'm just gonna go.. sit down.", he sputtered.

I replied with nothing. He already made me mad. No use in talking to him now.

Someday, I'm gonna get out of here and make some REAL friends.

Someday...
