Again and again your fists splash against the soft walls of your sister's stomach, but nothing happens. You stand there confused, figuring Tulip to at least dignify you with a response. You wonder why for a moment before noticing how unusually calm everything is. The walls expand and collapse in a smooth motion in sync with the bass-y sound of Tulip's breathing. It's pretty clear that she's sleeping, and from past experience you know how much of a heavy sleeper she can be.
You recall the last time she fell asleep with you, you were stuck in her sock. Your head was wedged between her toes, with your chest pinned against the sole of her foot. It felt like every time you were almost asleep, she’d wake you by reorienting you against her foot. You finally passed out after she rolled you into her toes and rubbed your head with her big toe.
A thought comes to you as you lay in the remaining pool of chime on the stomach floor. You could probably escape before your sister wakes up. You look around, listening carefully. She still seems deep asleep. There are only two ways out of here, you think to yourself. You could try to crawl back up Tulip’s throat, or you could take the… back… door. “Ugh”, you think as you imagine it. Going through the intestines has always been a pretty crappy experience. It's nothing but blind turns in a dark, wet, tube; possibly taking hours to get through. You also know that Tulip is probably planning to keep you in there until she passes you, and you wouldn’t want to give her the satisfaction.
‘That settles that’, you think. You might stand a chance as long as long as she doesn’t wake up before you escape.
You make your way to the entrance of her throat and try to wedge yourself in. For once luck seems to be on your side, the slick liquid coating your body allows you to slide in. Tulip’s throat is extremely tight, but just relaxed enough to allow you to wedge yourself along.
You continue to crawl until…
