Susan tossed and turned in her bed for a bit before being woken up. She sat up in her bed and looked around the room, noticing that it was still encased in darkness.
"What time is it?" she thought to herself before glancing at the clock on her night stand.
The clock read 3:00 am. That was very strange to her. She'd never woken up this early before, unless she had a bad dream or was sick. But she felt fine and couldn't remember any bad dream she had. The only dream she did have was filled with tons of sweets and other junk food. She sighed happily and licked her lips as she thought back to that dream, before a sound broke her trance.
*grrrrllll*
She looked around the room for the source of the sound, but for some reason she was unable to pinpoint its location. She waited to see if it would happen again, but after a few minutes without hearing anything, she decided to try to fall back asleep. Just as her head hit the pillow, the sound was heard again, this time much louder.
*Gurrllll*
It sounded like a deep hollow growl from some sort of monster. This time the sound was accompanied by a very hollow feeling in her tummy. She pulled the covers off of her and looked down at her stomach. It was still fairly round from the stuffing she did, but it seemed to have a bit of softness to it now. She gave it a little rub to see if that would help ease the hollow feeling away. As she was doing this, the growling was heard a third time.
*GNAAARRRLLL*
She also felt a vibration in her tummy that accompanied the noise. She finally put two and two together.
"Oh so it's you! You're the one making that sound, aren't you girl?" she asked her tummy.
*Guuuuuurrrrggle....Growlgle* her tummy replied as she felt it squirm beneath her palm like some alien monster.
"Alright then, let's see if we can get you something to eat!" She whispered as she got up and slowly made her way to the kitchen, he stomach growling the whole way.
She managed to keep her tummy quiet enough that she didn't wake her dad. She got to the pantry and saw a package of cookies. She grabbed it and poured herself a glass of milk. She proceeded to go to town on those cookies and ended up finishing the whole package. She then chugged the milk and finished with a satisfied sigh.
