i was praying that my stomache wouldnt rumble

today at lecture i was trying very hard to keep my stomach from rumbling.
i was very hungry and was stuck in a 2 hour lecture with no food.
very bad combination.

i could feel the rumbles build up similar to tremors before the actual earthquake.

so i sucked in or pulled in my tummy whenever i felt it was gonna produce unplesant sound.

and i hoped desperately that my stomache was not going to let out an embarrassing rumble.
(just like it let me down so many times before)
