Human Animals

In the middle of January, the eighteenth to be exact, I freaked out. I stared at the empty space where my cracked phone was left, wondering how I could have lost it. Then, I heard giggling and I did the natural thing when you hear giggling in the middle of the afternoon of a rainy day when you're alone at your house, I ran. My dogs barked and barked, but I tripped in the hallway. Zapping sounds could be heard, in my bedroom, where my dogs were. I rush up and burst through the door to see four children that looked almost identical to my dogs.

"Hi.", one of them wispered.
But I had already screamed.
