When Time Runs Out

Chapter Six {Teaser/Sneak Peek}

Chapter Six

I woke up at about five in the morning, from another horrible dream. These nightmares haunted me every night, only having a break once or twice every month. They were always something terrible, always something gruesome, always something different. I decided to get up and get ready, because I knew that there was no way that I would be able to get anymore sleep today. I took my time with my prep of the day, because I had an extra three hours. I managed to somehow shake off the dream and look decent today, doing my signature spider-eye mascara perfectly. Unfortunately, that's the only makeup I wear beside a bit of moisturizer and a minuscule swipe of brown eyeliner on the outside of my lids, so I still managed to look terrible, at least to myself. I put my hair in a ballet bun on the bottom of my head, right above my neck so no hair would get into anybody's food. I took a final glance in the mirror, put on my now-usual frown, and walked downstairs. I looked into the pantry for some breakfast, and the only thing I had left was, literally, oatmeal. Perfect.

When I was working in the kitchen today, I realized that I hadn't spoken since I was upgraded from a waitress,  three weeks ago. I tried to speak to a co-cook, but all I did was open and close my mouth like a fish out of water. I only managed to emit a tiny squeak. To finally make everything so much worse, I was losing my skin color and eye color. My skin used to be a natural caramel, now I had almost achieved the color of milk. My eyes used to be a brownish-hazel, now they were the color of rain clouds, a depressing gray. Between my pigments and the dark blue circles under my eyes, I basically looked like the stereotypical zombie.
