“You want to get out of here” someone yelling from across the room. Still walking over to the closet near the door to get my jacket, is when I realize my friend Joe was yelling at me and not the guy I just met beside me at this Halloween party. When Joe finally catches up to me he repeats, “you want to get out of here, Jess, Danny, and I want to get something to eat”. “Yes, where you ...” I stop mid-sentence when I hear the still unnamed guy still beside me say “I was just about to leave; my granddad is making something really good at home. You guys want to come?”. Joe had this look like he was asking “do you even know this guy?”. Not knowing what to say I said “sure”.

One of the girls who is sitting by herself that seems to be friends with the noisy group, is eating nature valley peanut butter granola. When she notices me staring, she gets up and sits to my right. “You want some?” shoving the green plastic bag into my face. “Sure, I haven't eaten all day, Thanks!” “Where you from?” asking the girl with colored hair like milk chocolate...bittersweet chocolate.

First, I haven't eaten all day, I was already nauseous in the first place. Second, I was so hungry and knowing I couldn't eat meat anymore made me rethink my decision. Having that image in my head made me feel not good about myself, for rethinking that. “Hey, are you okay?” asking Elle still sitting next to me. I started getting dizzy from not eating all day and I started hearing Elle getting my friends attention. When the train stopped I ran to the nearest exit, to get some air. When all my friends followed me out, I told them what happened. Looking around I saw Strahinja walking over and saying, “We can walk from here it'll only take 15 minutes”. “Where are you guys going?” said Elle. “What are you doing? Aren't you going to a party?” I asked. “It's
