I was lying on my bed that night, tossing and turning. All I
could think about was the article I read of the psychotic killer on the prowl
in my area.
Suddenly, I see the shadow of a bi-cycle on the wall of my
living room that is visible from my bedroom. I was startled, then I see some
shadow creeping up near the bi-cycle. It looked huge and scary.
I thought its my end today. I had to get rid of him before he gets rid of me. I got up and walk
slowly, shivering with my baseball bat. I was ready for a fight. Then I saw the
thing move and gave a huge shout.
It was a stupid mouse and the toy bi-cycle toy that gave me
a heart attack.

Deleteshadows are always scary! i remember once being scared of a shadow visible from my bathroom window... i thought it was a man in a black shiny raincoat wearing a Napoleon style hat.... in the morning I realised it was just a drainpipe!
ReplyDeleteI have had no many such incidents which make me feel so stupid in the morning :P

DeleteHaha! I have pepper spray right at my disposal in my room. Every time I somehow think there is an intruder in my place my thought always goes to my pepper spray can! In my case it is always the cat that I like to feed...
