Crack! and pop!, the fire mocks me where I lie huddled in my bed. Each sound makes me twitch and my heart quivers in my chest, a frightened rabbit with no place to hide from a predator. If only I could calm down, but the fire won’t let me. The noise reminds me of the boomsof thunder, cautioning people to find shelter before the storm hits.
I keep my eyes squeezed shut hoping it will magically muffle the sounds. It doesn’t make a difference, so I slam my hands over my ears and cringe.
