Peter hugged his knees close to his chest. Every now and again a sniffle was heard from him as he tried to stay warm. Then a buzzing sound could be heard. It seemed deafening in the alley. Peter pulled out his phone with shaking hands and looked at the cracked screen. 

Mr muffin:
Heya kiddo
How are you doing?

Bambi:
I'm doing alright I have a cold though
It's probably from the day I left my coat at home

Mr muffin:
Well then stay warm and get better

If only he knew. Peter thought to himself. Peter looked up at the sky. Not a wisp of blue could be seen only grey.

Bambi:
I'll be getting out of school for winter break soon
Then I can stay in bed where its warm all day
And I can drink hot chocolate and eat warm cookies

Mr muffin:
Kid you're obviously hungry

Bambi:
Yea I forgot my lunch today and I didn't eat breakfast

It wasn't that much of a lie, Peter hadn't eaten breakfast or lunch.

Mr muffin:
You should look after yourself more
I don't want anything to happen to you

Bambi:
I'll be fine
I'll just eat a bunch for dinner!
Anyway I have to go. My next lesson is about to start!
Bye Mr muffin!

Mr muffin:
Bye Bambi
