The Girl in the Chair

The accident happened about a year ago. The girl didn’t know that she wasn’t supposed to eat the peanut butter that was in the bowl on the counter. The family had been experiencing rodent problems and the mother heard that putting peanut butter on the mouse traps was a good way to catch those little bastards. Just to be sure, she decided that she would mix rat poison in with the peanut butter. Little did she know her eldest daughter would walk into the kitchen while she was out in the garage gathering the mousetraps.

This is a creative non-fiction piece I am turning in for class and I promised some creative writing to be posted soon, so I thought I'd start with this one... She felt sick. It was third period and she asked to be excused to use the bathroom. 11:00 am... In the bathroom, she throws up, yet it did not make her feel better. Thank goodness it was a half day of school. Once she walked to the elementary school to pick her sister up, she could finally go home and rest…something  didn't  feel right though. What was this feeling?
