Under the Barn

Theres this spot under the barn, she always used to take me there. That was before the humans took her to the zoo. At least that's what we like to tell ourselves when loved ones go missing. I heard them talking the same way they did before they took her last year. I had been stress eating ever since she was gone. I was worried about her. I knew I was the biggest Turk on the farm. That's why I hid.

I hid under the barn until snow came. I had survived another year. I hope you're proud of me darling.
