Excerpt ;
Pig
barked and snarled. I jumped up. I’d fallen asleep. What time was
it? Midnight… Maybe Aunt Millie was home. I flipped on the light.
Pig stood in the doorway with his hair raised and his teeth bared.
But, this time it was not at me. He was vicious. The little ten-pound
pug-nosed dog scared me worse than a Doberman Pincher or Pit Bull.
“Who’s
there?” I twisted my head around the corner. Pig did not get upset
that I stood so close to him now. His only concern was for the dark
shadowy figure crouching in the hall. Was it the cat? What was wrong
with the feline? Did she have rabies and they wouldn’t put her down
or something? My eyes adjusted and I squinted to get a better look at
the invader.
It
was a human, for sure.
We
were being robbed. Why else would Bipolar Pig be attacking? I needed
something to defend myself with. I looked around the barren room. The
only thing with substance was the shelf bolted into the wall. I
doubted Alex’s parents would approve of me ripping their shelf off
the wall but what else could I do? My heart pounded. I looked under
the bed and spotted a painter’s stick with a purple tip. I grabbed
it and held on tight. My fingers trembled and I couldn’t breathe.
Pig
snarled and snapped at whoever lurked in the hallway. Footsteps
echoed in my ears. The burglar was advancing. “Get out, whoever you
are! There is nothing here that’s valuable! They don’t even have
a TV!”
