I was sitting here at my desk sorting some MP3 files on my laptop when the sound of someone flipping a light switch and the closing of my parents’ bathroom door startled me. I thought I was home alone…
I quietly made my way to the kitchen and got one of the large knives, I lightly ran my thumb along the blade to make sure it was sharp. I slowly walk towards my parents’ bedroom with the knife in my trembling right hand, I could hear water running in my parents’ shower as I got closer. I get to the closed bathroom door and tap on it with the knife. I got no response from whoever was in there so I knocked with my left hand while holding the knife tightly with my right hand.
“What?!” shouted my youngest sister from inside the shower.
I opened the door, stuck in my head and shouted, “Jislaaik, Belle! I almost had a freaking heart attack; I didn’t know you were home, I thought I was home alone!” And with that I closed the door, ran to the kitchen and put the knife away.
I hate not being able to feel safe, even at home.

LOL I would assume an intruder wouldn’t be using the shower. Maybe I’m too trusting.

Oh wow. I would’ve been so freaked out if that was me. I get scared just hearing the wind blows almost:P Ok, it’s not that bad, but I get easily scared while being home alone.

Wow, I probably would have done the same thing, lol. I’m a nut when it comes to people being in my house.

I was almost sure, one night a few nights ago, that someone was hacking away at our gate’s lock. I made J get up and go look.
I guess you have to live in SA to get it huh? *Scary*
