Her black eyes narrowed at me, her lean body straightened. She grinned at me, her darker skin than most Asians glowed under the sunlight and it made her look scary. My skin crawled in fear.  stepping near my pathetic body she stopped grinning. I wanted to stand up but my exhausted body didn’t support me and for the first time in my life, I understood the reason for eating. I had barely managed to exhale when a series of sharp kicks came down at my legs.

“How dare you touch my best friend from your filthy tissue.”
