Monster Under the Bed

Sally sneezed and moaned in misery.

"Sally, are you ill?" Und asked with concern for his friend.

"Yesh, I've got the flu," Sally mumbled.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Sally. I've heard of this flu before. I believe your grandmother and aunt both had it. Terrible illness." Und said.

"Yea, but I had my flu shot, and I still got it." Grumbled Sally.

"Flu shot?" Und asked.

"Yesh, it's supposed to help you not get the flu. I get one every year." Sally moaned, "But this year, I got it anyways. The doctor said it won't be as bad."

"Humans are fascinating creatures. So you have a way to protect yourself from diseases." Und said with some delight.

"Yesh, I've gotten a lot of shots." Sally sneezed.

"Well, you need to rest. Good night Sally."

"Good night, Und."
