I was curled up in a corner on a sidewalk.
Its about in the afternoon now-   a few nice inklings asked why i was alone. But i just told them my momma will be back for me, she said so herself. And then they tried to bring me with them but momma told me to never follow other squids without me knowing them, at least in my broken sentences i did, I deffinetly didnt know any of them.
At all.

But i began to doubt what momma said. She wouldt leave me like this, But here i am. Exactly like that i was alone,
hungry and cold.

The sharp pain in my stomach grew each time it came at me, i should go find some food.

The only kind of food i could think of to find was either beg for it, or to look in the trash.
I went down a restaraunt alleyway to look for food back there, hopefuly they just too out the trash so the food would be fresh,
Well, fresh as it could be anyway.
I dug through the big dumpster wich was extremley difficult considering how soft and squishy my limbs are still, but i finally got in and found some half eatten food that was probally a few days old.
I grabbed a nearly finished sandwich and ate it slowly.
I had that feeling where your so hungry you dont wanna eat, but after a couple bites i was so damn hungry i had to have eatten one fourth of that trash food.

I started to get out of the dumpster when i heard someone shout "HEY KID!-" from in the alley. I nearly had a heart attack i quickly got out of the trash and ran as fast as i could. Wich deffinetly wasnt fast at all..

Within seconds the worker at the restaraunt caught me by my wrist and grabbed my shoulders.
"Are you okay??- wheres your parents at hun," she cupped her hand on my cheek, she was so warm i couldnt resist but cuddle into her for warmth.
At this point i didnt care who took me i just wanted to be safe again.

Safe and warm.
