Wha-...?
I wake up with a start to the sound of that dog barking again outside. So loud it like rattles my bones and echoes in my ears. W-w-what time is it? A glance over at the clock on my bedside table and - yikes - 6:12 PM. Another day wasted.
Oh god... I f-feel so drained. I rub my eyes and try to gather myself.
Even with that dog, there's an eerie quiet. The room feels empty. Immediately I can tell Kat's gone, not anywhere close. It's weird...I can sense her presence is missing...and I don't like it. Christ...this is bad... I'm g-getting too attached, aren't I?
But that's the least of my worries.
As I lay in bed, nothing to distract me besides that damn dog, I start to think about the events of the past week. I can't believe it. I never thought the day would come, but it's actually happening. I've only got until Friday to be out of here. How could I have let this happen? I... I used to stay on top of things like this.... the old me would have never let it get to this point...
But above that... what the fuck is happening to me? Do I have some rare endocrine disorder? A bone disease? I'm wasting away... how much longer is this going to go on? Am I just going to waste away to nothing?? I look down at my naked body. God I'm so thin... I barely even recognize it as belonging to me.
oh my god that dog. It's still barking, and it's really unnerving me, more than it should. It's a little dog, with a little dog's bark, but it's actually making me nervous. I wish it would stop...it's really bothering me.
Why?!? What's going on?! It's like my entire life is falling apart, crashing down around me... and I'm powerless to fix it.
I close my eyes, tears starting to form.
"...G-god DAMMIT!! Why is this happening to me??" I cry out into the dark room, gripping my blankets and burying my head into my pillow.
And as for Kat.... oh my GOD. She's grown almost a foot in less than a year! And not to mention - even crazier - over four inches in two weeks!! That... that shouldn't even be POSSIBLE!
...
...I wonder... is it related? I've been shrinking and she seems to be growing...
c-could I have caught some kind of... virus or something from her?
Haha... Don't be ridiculous, Charles. No virus like that exists......
...u-unless I'm patient zero of some rare disease........ ugh, this is too confusing...
I keep running through all the possibilities in my mind, searching for any kind of error I could have made somewhere. I'm desperately trying to convince myself that this all has a rational explanation and can be reversed.... anything to make me feel better and give me hope that my situation isn't as dire as it seems...
that dog is...starting to frighten me...
I need help. Please don't tell me I have to wait two entire weeks before getting treatment for this... if th-this keeps up at the rate it's been going, I'll....
Mentally exhausted from this whole situation, I push it out of my mind and turn over in bed.
...Huh?
As I glance over, I notice there's a note on my bedside table, where my cell phone usually sits...
