Finding my way home...

♥ Daily Blog: Scared to Death

I was just sitting in my room, watching something and doing homework. I had my headphones on, so when I took them off, I heard my dog barked hysterically. Okay, first of all, how did I hear my dog's barking from my room, which was upstairs on the other side of the house??? There must have been something going on. Then...my doorbell rang. I froze. The doorbell continued to ring, the dog continued to bark, and I stared at my unclosed window. My room was lit up. If someone was trying to break in, he or she already knew that someone was in the house already.

All I could do at the moment was typing to him quickly and quietly about what was going on. I wanted to get up and get the phone, but I was afraid to make a move. Suddenly, the dog stopped barking abruptly. A second after that, the doorbell stopped ringing. Silence. It was odd. I was afraid that my dog might be dead and someone had broken in. I wanted to get up so badly, but I couldn't. I tried to listen for any movement around the house. Nothing. I slowly stood up and tiptoed across the room for my home phone. I was about to call my mother, but then I realized that IF there was someone in the house already, someone can eavesdrop from the other line. Furthermore, dialing the number will create a sound. So I took out my cell phone and I stared at the door the whole time. I locked my bedroom door. I called my mother. She didn't pick up. I called my father. He said she'll be home in three minutes.

I continued to type to him quietly though. I was confused. I was stuck. I was too scared to do anything. I could barely move. At that moment, everything on my mind was blank. I was home alone.

I couldn't hide in the closet, because if anything, I would be trapped.

Luckily...my mother came home along with my sister. Everything turned out to be normal. I sighed in relief and told my sister what happened. My sister told my mother, and my mother was alarmed.

Phew...oh man....if something did happen...even if I could fight back...I couldn't, because at that exact time, I was too scared to even think or move. My heart was pounding. All I could do was type silently.
I didn't want to call the police yet, because I didn't hear any footsteps. I wanted to make sure if someone was in the house or not.

ehhh...what a night...

can't focus on hw now...eh i'm going to sleep...-_-
