Chloe grabbed a pot from the cabinet. She filled it with water and placed it on the stove. She turned on the heat and waited for it to warm up before she added the box of noodles that were waiting on the counter. She dumped the box of noodles into the pot then turned her attention to the dishes in the sink. One by one she washed them then returned to the pot on the eye. 

Chloe let out a disgusted scream and reached for the pot. She threw it in the sink. "D___ it!" she yelled. I jumped off the couch and ran over to the pot. The pot was covered in roaches. Big roaches. 

It is absolutely disgusting

It is absolutely disgusting. I can handle the holes in the walls, the broken things, the nasty smells and everything else but I can't handle roaches. I never ate at home after that. If I did eat at home, I would wash my dishes before I ate or got a drink. It was so bad there.

Whenever you opened a cabinet or a drawer there would be twenty of them. The roaches were everywhere even when I cooked supper. It would be so difficult. When I cut tomatoes on the cutting board I would go make sure that the food on the stove top wasn't burning and when I came back there could be roaches crawling on the tomatoes. I would get angry and disgusted then throw it all in the garbage. It was such a waste of food but I couldn't bring myself to eat it after the roaches had touched it.
