Chapter 3

RJ rubbed his temple as he was getting a headache. He was working on a new plan to get 10x the food they had been getting. He promised. He remembers it just like that.

"But didn't we just get some yesterday?" Stella questioned.

"Yeah! That's the worst part!" Bucky shot back Lilith walked out of the log, finished counting the food.

"We only have a quarter of food left guys." She said. Various groans came from the family.

"How about this..." RJ started. They all turned to him.

"You sure? Those eyes are telling me the truth." Heather joked. RJ chuckled.

"Oh..." He stared at amazement. And with that, his headache fades away...
