After failing asleep, waking up, and getting ready for the day became the everyday routine, I started to get bored. Sure, I was warming up to the place....but once Riggy left for "work" it was just me, Jimmy, and all his...terrifying plants. There wasn't much to do..even TV was boring me!

So I decided to sleep in today. I wasn't really hungry anyways..Riggy didn't seem to care, and just left for his "job"..after a couple extra hours of sleep, I got up, and into the kitchen, to see a note of the fridge.

The note was from Riggy, in the most sloppy, sketchy looking handwriting i've ever seen! It looked like a rancid note, if you ask me.. The note read: "to Preston. There's leftovers from dinner last night in the fridge if you get hungry. Just put them in the microwave then press the 2 button. DON'T BURN THE HOUSE DOWN. from Riggy. See you soon. P.S. make sure to feed the plants and take Jimmy out on a walk."

The "don't burn down the house" part was in red, and underlined. Not like I was going to burn the treehouse down anyway..I knew the whole microwave thing..Riggy taught me the basics of it..

I did end up feeding those gross plants, and take Jimmy for a walk, of course. After all that, I put the leftover dinner into the microwave and sat with Jimmy onto the couch, and grabbed the tv remote, and turned the tv on. Some random commercial started playing as I talked to Jimmy, trying to find evidence to prove he was a secret agent..but he wouldn't budge, just oinking and staring at me. Trying to convince me otherwise..but he can't fool me..

One meal and tv binge-watch later, I was starting to dose off, I check the time on the clock..Riggy wasn't going to be back for another hour....why does it take him so long to do a couple poses for a YouTube short??!?!???!!!!

Suddenly there was loud knock at the door.. "Augghh..." I groaned, getting up and walking over to the door "riggy's not home..." I sighed, thinking it was Barry again or something..

But instead, I heard a very familiar voice...almost too familiar...

"I know you're in there, clone Riggy." Their voice was very ominous, and honestly a bit terrifying..

I looked through the peephole..

It was the backstabber.
