Trouble is following me around, it’s keeping to the shadows, but it’s there, its long fingernails tapping against the walls.
Weather: sunny sunny sunny
Mood: wary
Word of the day: philodox – one who loves his own opinions; a dogmatic person
We were all out today. Jinjing and Hamoudi were out being sociable with friends, and I was wandering about enjoying my own company. When I got back to my room I found the shiny pink foil of a Quality Street chocolate sitting on the floor. I don’t have any Quality Street. It was over by my desk, a good ten feet from the door. Someone has been in my room, and eaten chocolate, and not left me any. I don’t know which of these events I’m more angry about.
When Jinjing and Hamoudi got home, I told them about the sweetie wrapper I found. Jinjing claimed to have found dog hairs on her duvet.
‘This is proof! Neville has been coming into our rooms.’
‘But Neville doesn’t have a dog,’ I said.
‘I’ll bet he does! Maybe that’s why he’s cooking up all that meat. For a dog. A secret dog.’
‘Not in the flat though.’
‘It doesn’t have to be in the flat. Maybe he keeps the dog in the shed. Or at a friend’s house. He has a dog.’
‘But that doesn’t explain why he’s coming into our rooms.’
‘Because he’s evil!’ said Jinjing. And I think she might be losing all reason in the search for a villain. Neville is annoying, but he isn’t evil, and I’m not convinced he’s coming into our rooms, what would be the point? Although I don’t understand about the missing ketchup and the quality street. Or how my laptop got broken. This is all getting very odd.
I like the segmentation and the boundaries within which you develop your blogs.✌

Why thank you very much! I’ve never thought of them having segmentation or boundaries before, more like splurges of nonsense 😀

Well, these splurges help you to keep expanding the boundaries constantly, and enhance the beauty of your blogs evidently 🙂

can’t you lock the door of your room? I mean….. You seem to take it pretty cool, but it is kinda not to have someone uninvited in your space.

There aren’t any locks fitted. Maybe I need to have a word with the landlady. It’s really nice that you care, but I’m not feeling invaded exactly, more confused!

The question is was the wrapper accidentally dropped or passive aggressively placed?

Hey, eating chocolate in your room and not leaving any for you–that’s out right outrageous! Someone is trying to rile you up. But we can’t blame poor Neville.

I know, right? Some things are unforgivable! But I think you’re right about Neville.
