DAY 6

Drops of dew clung to every blade of grass, and the morning sun shining through them made the yard shimmer and glean. Mic came out early to refill my water bottle and food dish. He also dragged the cardboard box out of my cage and threw it onto the lawn. I still sat hunched at the spot next to the fence, engrossed in feelings of guilt and regret.

Was I the one who made Peebody sick? Was he even still alive? Whenever a rabbit would get sick at the store the blue shirts would come and take them away, and we would never see them again. The day dragged on with all these thoughts, and I began to think that I would go crazy if they didn’t end soon.

I barely ate anything; barely even moved, and before I knew it the sun was setting again. Mic hadn’t come out since that morning. After stretching my legs a little, and nibbling on some pellets to quiet my stomach, I laid back down in the spot by the fence and went back to sleep.

To be continued in day 7...
