A not so good night's sleep followed by an unpleasant morning. (Part 1)

She quickly decided against eating food the man had brought, for fear it would make her throw up. She decided that eating the plate of food would do just as much damage as not eating at all, so she turned her back to it and walked towards the bed. It was metal, small and rusty. It creaked as she carefully sat on it, and before she knew it, her butt hit the ground as the mattress sank to the floor. "Ow" She cried. It was a pathetic sight to witness, the bed frame with the sinking mattress, and on top a frightened girl with her legs hanging over the edge. So she pulled her tired hands to her face, and started crying. With the tears running down her face and through her hands she tilted her body and leaned against one side of the mattress, closed her sleepy eyes, and fell asleep.


The next morning she awoke with a start, a loud banging was coming from the door. She stood up and suddenly lost her balance. As she sat on the ground, with the intense knocking ringing in her ears, she realized what had just happened. Both her legs had fallen asleep from laying in that uncomfortable position for about 6 hours. She begin hastily shaking her legs so they would wake up, because the banging only seemed to be getting louder and louder. "HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE ME KNOCK ON THIS DOOR, PRINCESS?"
