I'd say the idea can work, but I think most can, so that isn't saying much. Main thing is to keep writing, or at least that tends to be a barrier for a good deal of people.
Is this a storygame or just a normal story? Either way, this seems a bit short for a chapter, but hey, short chapters aren't illegal.
Some improvements that shouldn't be too hard to implement would just be stuff like remembering to separate words, i.e. calledhandsome, ablack.
Proofreading is a great tool that shouldn't be undervalued. If you are writing a linear story then drafting is also worth considering (do note you can draft for branching stories too, I just think it is more time consuming).
Also, personally, I think you should add some paragraphs, but I guess it isn't that long and that it can be a style thing...
However, when a different character speaks, it has to be a new line.
"Stay safe honey."
"I will try," you reply to her.
There was also one spot where you forgot to capitalise the first letter of a new sentence: ... beer cans lie on the ground. you silently walk up ...
Also, to show possession, use an apostrophe: i.e. mother's room instead of mothers room.
Do note that with 'its' you only use the apostrophe to show a contraction (it's = it is). So for possession you don't use an apostrophe: "its claws were long".
There is a lot things surrounding apostrophes, so here is a site that lists a bunch of situations (worth consulting if you are unsure): Grammar Book
Other than that, having the protagonist look into a mirror to give readers a description is pretty cliche, but it is hardly the end of the world.
Fix these things up and keep writing! Feel free to come back with the second chapter, and we may look into some other elements surrounding writing, but really, you want to find what works for you, and I think the 'just write' is a good spot to start.
