Chapter #2Muriel by: Unknown Bzzzt!...Bzzzt!
Muriel groaned and rolled over to look at the clock which said 5:30 am. She groan again, normally she did mind getting up this early (she enjoyed swimming before school) but for the last few months she found herself more and more less energetic, probably why she devolved a bit of a belly. Make that a lot of a belly, Muriel sat up with a lot effort and place one hand on said belly whilst rubbing gunk out of her eyes with the other. She heaved herself up and slowly made her way downstairs where her mother had already got breakfast ready.
Muriel gave a moan at the sight of fruit, which was match by one from her belly at the sight of food in general. "No complaining," said her mother, who had her back to her washing up the dishes; "you know what the doctor said."
