After Rodney Roach untied me, we both fled from that place, Vinnie's hide-out. I was surprised how fast a roach could run, but sure enough, Rodney Roach kept right up with me all the time. He was so sweet, for a nasty bug and all. He kept yelling, "Run, Lammy, run!" and it brought a tear to my eye that he had rescued me and seemed like the only one who cared about me at all.
More tears flowed as I ran and thought that there was not one single person I have known that would help put up a ransom to get me free. And even more tears flowed as I thought about all those guys that I had gone with who rejected me.
And even more tears flowed as I thought of all the jobs I have had, but was fired just because no one liked me. More and more tears flowed as I grew more and more depressed thinking how nobody loves me. It is such a lonely feeling, like I am useless and no good for anything.
Even Enditall the witch had cursed me and I really never understood why, except that she must have hated me a lot. That really hurts to think about and it makes me cry so much that snot runs out of my nose and gets all over my face while I am running.
And I cried even more when I thought about my trial and getting my death reversed. The truth was that the Devil hated me and didn't want me in hell. Now that is really being hated! I really sobbed hard thinking of that one.
I was crying so much that I fell in that open man-hole again and fell into the slimy sewer. At first I thought all that liquefied muck and piss was how much tears I had shed. Then there was another splash.
Rodney Roach had jumped down the man-hole to be with me. How sweet that little fellow is! But then he turned really big like a man and that scared me so much I had to pee, but since I was sitting in sewage, I just let it go as if I was in a swimming pool.
Rodney had turned into Ninja Roach and was protecting me from the Dhole in the sewer. That made me cry to think that there was someone who really cared.
