I stayed in my room as Akin had asked me to, and when dinner time came; I began to feel uneasy. I don’t know why he recommended I stay inside and then didn’t send anyone to check up on me. I stayed put for hours, but then it became harder and harder as I began to feel hungry.

It was around midnight when I gave up. Sleep is only peaceful when your stomach is full. So regardless of how much I tried to take a nap, I couldn’t blink an eye. My stomach kept growing and making weird noises as if it would explode if I didn’t feed it anything soon.
