Hi all, How is life?
Here is the preview just to put you in the picture:
I live in a small apartment in my uncle’s building.
Few days ago, my uncle had to travel abroad and decided to take his family along.
My cousin who is a university student, had to stay to attend a midterm quiz.
So, there are only two people in the building, my cousin and me.
One night, I was up late doing some studying.
I was sitting in the dark - well I always sit in the dark - and do e-studying (so to speak).
Suddenly, I heard a real loud sound, more like a “BANG”! :umm2:
"The Hell was that!? O.O"
I thought it maybe a car crash since many people do drive crazy as they pass the nearby street.
I went to check it out, but there was no car crash or anything likes it, everything looked normal..
“I wonder if the sound came actually from inside the house… :ponder:? Could it be my cousin?
Maybe he dropped something.. I better check on him”.
I rang the house bell and waited for like 5 minutes, I rang again and again but nobody answered.
Then the sound came again! “BANG”!
:umm2:
It defiantly is coming form my uncle’s house!! Now I’m really worried! “I have to go in!”
I had a spare key just in case, so I brought it and opened the door, it was dark I searched for a light switch and turned it on.
I already know that my cousin’s room is at the second floor, so I tried and called his name but he never answered…
=|
Anxiously, I went up, called again and again, still, no answer.
When I made it to the upper living hall I noticed that his room lights were on, the door wasn’t really shut thought!
Logically, he should be able to hear my voice…
I called but this time my voice was too low because I was kinda frightened :D ,
I didn’t expect an answer this time, I stepped forward then I pushed the door quietly, :creep:
the door shocked me with its cracking sound :scared1: that I almost collapsed :09: lolz
I got myself together, entered the room, looked around, my cousin wasn’t there,
however, the bathroom light was on and the door was wide open!
o.O"
I stood near it and called my cousin’s name twice and asked: “Are you there?”
Finally, A respond came back: “huh? @.@ Wesam!! Is that you!? How come you are in my room o.O!! something wrong?”
Ahhh.. what a relief…) I said to myself as I took a real deep breath,
then I answered: “Yes it’s me, are you okay?”
Him: “I’m fine… what is wrong :31:? Something happened, are you okay??”
“ah.. I just heard a real loud sound and I came to check up on you, glad your ok.”
Then the sound came again “BANG” “BANG”!!! It wasn’t coming from my cousin’s room;
it was coming from another place in the house!
I said: “you heard that!”
He replied: “What was that!? Wait I’m coming out”
The sound came again and again “BANG” “BANG”!!! “BANG” “BANG”!!! It was just like gunfire sound :bigeyes:
I went out the room and was trying to follow the sound…
I was moving slowly and I won’t deny that I was really frightened:bigeyes2:.
Then a smell of burning reached my nose :paranoid:
I kept following the smell, and it led me to the stairs! “It is coming from up there I guess!”
I felt a sudden touch on my left shoulder that caused me to jump with fear! eek! :ahhhhh: :eek1:
I turned and it was only my cousin,
he said: “oops sorry, I told you to wait for me!!”
Nervously, I said: “something is burning, the smell is coming form up there, do you smell anything?” :paranoid:
He turned the lights on then pointed up and screamed: “LOOK! SMOKE!! FIRE!! FIRE!!” :yikes:
We went up in a hurry; the smoke was coming from the maid’s room!
We entered and there it was…
“God! The maid’s air conditioner was left on for at least three days!"
Me: “It certainly is broken by now.. thank god it didn’t blow up!”
We used a fire extinguisher, turned the air conditioner off, unplug it and opened the window.
Him: “Stupid maid! How could she left it on!! Wait ‘til mom hears about this… MAN that maid is doomed!”
Me: “She is doomed alright…:ponder:”
So two days later, my uncle and his family came home.
My cousin told the story and laughed hilariously at my sudden reactions XD
(however, 50% was made-up :ds022:).
The house maid was punished but wasn’t killed (unlike what we anticipated :09: )
My uncle noticed something exciting that my cousin didn’t saw coming,
he asked him: “Living next door on a separate apartment, Wesam was able to hear the sound,
in the other hand, you sitting one step far from the maid’s room didn’t heard a thing,
how come? Have you gone deaf? ” :31:
He timidly replied: “ah… I had my headset on and was listening to loud music, couldn’t hear a thing…”
My uncle: “I see, so, Wesam, how did you get in?”
Me: “I used the spare key that you gave me.”
My uncle: “you could have rang the door bell instead…”
I looked at my cousin,
rolled my eyes and said: “I did, many times.”
My uncle said to his son: “you are unreliable!!
The house could’ve been all on fire because of your stupid music!
That is it, you will be the one paying for the new air conditioner.” :jap039:
Ouch! Xo
Here are some tips to end this blog with:
1. Always expect the worst.
2. Parents never forgive carelessness even if you think it’s harmless.
3. Always knock before entering :D
4. Don’t leave your electronic devices on for too long especially during summer time.
5. Lasto, don’t read in the dark, (or too bright light either).
Thanks for reading.
Too long? eh….my apologies U.U”
