Another brilliant piece from a GUNNAS WRITING MASTERCLASS writer.
Once upon a time, there was a girl name Rilee and she had a big, white chicken as a pet. She saved it from her father’s axe. Everyday she would take him for a walk. His name was Nugget. As gruesome as it is to name a pet chicken, Nugget she thought it suited him. But one day, Rilee came home from school and wanted to take Nugget for a walk but she couldn’t find him anywhere. She thought he would just turn up later and just went about with her day. As any kid would, she went and asked her mum what was for dinner.
“Chicken,” she said. Rilee then grew worried, her and her parents hadn’t had chicken since the day she saved Nugget from being beheaded.
“But chicken takes ages,” began Rilee, “you haven’t even started.”
“Oh don’t worry about that,” her mum chuckled, “There’s one we prepared earlier…”
Rilee was then horrified, her mum put Nugget’s feather plucked body on the kitchen counter.
