Screams and Wings

──────── ⚫ 👁️ ⚫ 👁️ ⚫ 👁️ ⚫ ────────

It rests in the corner.

Small, dark, and...ancient?

😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰

A cockroach

It's ... a cockroach!

What shall we do?

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I grab a slipper.

My roommate arms herself with Raid.

We approach like warriors

With fear in our throats

And laughter trembling under it.

      it crawls and flies 
   🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎🕷︎
⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱
Screams. Chaos.

A slipper thrown like a spell.

It's over.

We are heroes.

We are grossed out.

😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠

The room falls quiet again.

Only the echo of laughter and insect spray lingers.

We laugh.

And then disinfect everything.
