Hi, I'm Danica Patrick. Watching my nieces grow, play, and learn is amazing, but not every child gets to be carefree. One in six kids in the U.S. are hungry. This breaks my heart, and it's something that feeding America is working to change. Each year, the feeding America network of food banks rescues billions of pounds of good food that would have gone to waste and gives it to families in need to help visit feedingamerica.org.

an additional story with you to help you get through that midweek slump. This week we have a story called The Night My College Room Made's Boyfriends Snapped by a listener named Jenna. I've been listening to the show for two years now, I heard about it from one of my best friends and I'm glad that they shared it with me. It has given me a space to share one of the most terrifying things that happened to me. Now for a little backstory, this happened four years ago and a college dorm. At the time I was attending Southern Utah University, majoring in criminal justice with an emphasis in forensic science. I had a very hard time

making friends there so I mostly stuck to hanging out with my roommates and their friends. We were making dinner in the shared kitchen one night when we ran into a couple of boys who lived in our dorm building. We started talking and shouting insults at each other, nothing mean hearted, just some flirtatious fun. Over the next couple of hours, my roommates became friends with them. Within weeks they became frequent flyers at our dorm. One of my roommates, Beth, had a huge crush on one of the boys, will call him Steve.

They started to hang out more, but little did Beth know, Steve did not like her. He constantly came over to smoke and talk about how he wished that Beth would just take a hint. One night, he told my other roommate Rebecca that he had a crush on her. He suggested they tell Beth since he didn't want to hurt her feelings. Now, Rebecca and Steve started dating, which didn't consist of much, it pretty much just meant that Steve continued to come over to smoke and spend the night. One night, Rebecca, Steve and I did what we did most nights after class. We smoked, ate snacks,

and talked shit. I had hung out for about two hours before realizing that I had a big paper do the next day. I climbed into bed, put my headphones on, and started to work on my paper. Rebecca and Steve continued to hang out and talk. Suddenly the energy in the room shifted, and I noticed Rebecca climbing onto her bed. She seemed sad, and Steve had an angry demeanor about him. I had assumed they had gotten into a fight. I took my headphones off, crawled out from under the blankets and went to Rebecca's bed. When I got there, she was crying, and she told me that they had gotten into an argument, and she wanted to be held. I peeled back her blankets, crawled under

the sheets, and held her in my arms like she was some kind of scared little kid. That's when Steve freaked out. He yelled at us, asking what he did and why we wouldn't talk to him. He proceeded to scream and yell for at least 10 minutes. At this point, Rebecca and I were clinging to each other and crying because we were both terrified of what might happen next. Steve slammed his hands on the wooden desk beside Rebecca's bed, throwing us both into a panic attack as both Rachel and I have extreme trauma. He tried to intimidate and

gaslight us into calming down. The night ended with him lying on the floor, crying about how nobody cared about him. I got off of the bed and told him he scared the floor, crying about how nobody cared about him. I got off of the bed and told him, he scared the ever-loving shit out of us. I told him that he needed to get the fuck out of there. He proceeded to get up, grab his stuff and leave, not forgetting to slam the door on his way out. I made sure that Rebecca was okay then headed back to my bed. We both quickly faded away into our dreams. The next morning Rebecca and I awoke to the sound of stuff moving around in our room.

We quickly sat up when we realized neither of us had gotten out of bed yet. Then we saw Steve tearing the room apart. He unpacked our bags, went through our desks and tore apart our closets, all for what? I asked him how he got in and what he was doing. He told us our other roommate had let him in because he was missing his building key. He begged and pleaded with Rebecca to tell him exactly what he did the night before to scare us so badly. Neither of us was comfortable or awake enough to be able to tell him, so we just stayed quiet. He started to yell, screaming again about how selfish we were, and if this was about our trauma, then we should get over it. We continued to stay silent, then at the top of his lungs he yelled, just fucking talk

to me. As he full on, swipe the surface of Rebecca's desk, clearing it, breaking some of the items that were on it in the process. Then he turned around and did the same thing to my desk. After this, he sat on the ground, bawling. He turned to me, and pleaded for me to tell him what was wrong since Rebecca wouldn't talk to him. I didn't respond so he left, slamming the door again. That was the last time he came to our dorm. We ended up finding his building key card under Rebecca's desk, so to Steve, the guy who dated my college roommate, made our night and morning a living hell,

then spread rumors throughout the whole campus, let's not meet again. Thank you for listening to this week's one shot and thank you to Jenna for submitting that story.
