Monster

Feeling thirsty, I got up from the couch and walked to the kitchen to get a can of soda. Out of the corner of my eye I saw something move in the sink. Turning quickly, I faced the pile of dirty dishes. Swallowing hard and squeezing the unopened can until my knuckles turned white, I stepped forward. Reluctantly I looked into the sink, and then I saw it, staring back at me with cold, oily eyes. The soggy rice monster.
