In the beginning of this particular story , a fight occurs between two male characters of two different body sizes… huge and slim.


It all begins this way…

Adem, a young caramel skin man with a pretty face in his early 20’s who’s been sleeping for an hour plus suddenly feels a rush in his stomach, causing him to wake… the familiar sound sounds like nature’s call, he needs to poo. He gets up grunting, checks the time “12:56 AM” he exclaims… he moves out of his bedroom to the bathroom just to find out there’s no water. About to turn back to his room, his belle gives a low rumble. The thought of him going to ‘fetch from the well’ fills his mind. Angrily he kicks the bucket then picks it to go fetch water from the well…


Moving through the hallway to the staircase that leads to the main entrance, his stomach gives another rumbling sound, but louder.

He hurries more through the stairs…

On opening the door, he meets with a huge masculine figure (HMF). He shivers backward and unable to make a sound as if soaked in ice water. Moving backward… the HMF with all his strength raises his knee high to his abdomen level to unleash a military kick on Adem, but luckily the distance makes it less effective… he lands on the ground in a sitting position with the bucket still at hand and his back against a wall. He groans in pain as the HMF starts to walk in.

Adem looks towards the staircase before dashing along with his bucket towards the stairs.


He run through the stairs and hallway, then back to his room with his bucket still with him… he enters his room looking confused and terrified.

He paces forth and back from his door to the inner most part of his room in confusion for a while… pacing away from the door, he startled as he hears a sound from outside, he turns back to face the door, then he realize he hasn’t bolt the door and also he’s still holding tightly to the bucket.

Out of fear he drops it and rush to bolt the door then bolts towards his bed to a window where he sees a saw blade and tries fixing it to it’s clamp holder shakily… while still fixing, there’s a loud bang on his door which frightens him the more.

Shakily he’s able to fix the saw blade on the third bang and the door breaks open…


The HMF comes in and walks towards Adem, on getting to him he attempts hitting the HMF with the saw blade but the HMF blocks it and the blade breaks into halfs. He looks at the saw blade hopelessly and at the same time frightened.

Before he could move a feet backward, a heavy punch lands on Adem’s pretty face, knuckling him to the ground…


The HMF drags him by his feet as his back lays on the floor. Adem screams, he screams more and more and struggles to get hold of something as the HMF drags him towards his bedroom door but all effort proves futile… he continues to scream till he screams back to life on his bed.

He gets up looking terrified as he mumbles “it was just a dream”, followed by a low rumble in his stomach as if replying to his mumbling.

His eyes wide open, he picks up his phone to check the time…


“12:56 am” he said with a shock in his heart.
