I was watching a DVD with my youngest sister this morning while eating toast with strawberry jam for breakfast when all of a sudden my sister shouts, “Sandra, check out that huge mosquito!” I turned to look, “Where is it, Belle?!” She points up to the top part of the curtains of the window right where the couch I was sitting on was. I saw the damn creature just sitting there on the curtain; it was the biggest mosquito I had seen in my life.

I jumped up off the couch, looked at the mosquito and exclaimed, “It’s fucking huge, hey…” My sister looked at me in disgust as I spoke with my mouth full of half chewed toast, “I am going to kill the bitch!” And with that I ran off to get the Raid from the cupboard.

I ran back into the lounge and sprayed a few short bursts at the blood sucking creature. It flew from the curtain to the side table where it turned onto its back and began twitching frantically. I sprayed at it a couple more times shouting, “Die bitch, die!” The mosquito’s twitching became less hysterical so I return back to the couch and continued to watch the movie.

Several minutes later my sister says, “Sandra, look… It is still moving!” I turned to look at the dying mosquito on the side table then looked at my sister and said, “It’s going to die, don’t worry.” I climbed off of the couch, onto the floor and crawled over to the side table. I proceeded to raise the can of Raid and sprayed a short burst at the mosquito and quickly got back to the couch and looked at my sister and smiled.

The look on her face expressed confusion, amusement and something along the lines of, “What the fuck is wrong with you?!” The look on her face was priceless.
