Where She Cannot Watch

A/N - for the Drabbles Challenge #2 'Food'.


We sees it wriggling. Mustn’t make a sound. Catch it while it swims in shallow waters. Mustn’t scare it. We slips our hand into the pool and we smiles. Nice food for us today. Not hungry today.

Something touches us. We feels it on our back. It burns! And we cannot see the fishes any more! Bright, burning light! No food today. Fishes swim away. Curse the light.

Then we remembers its name. Loathsome, burning thing. The Sun, that is what we called her.

And we hates her.

Now we catch our fishes in the dark, where she cannot watch.
