It was a rainy day like no other. I left my jacket at my college, in a locker. I would have left my head there as well if I could have.

Anyway, I lost my keys. After a 2-hour bus drive during afternoon rush hour. I got home. I walked past rows of identical terraced houses. My door was locked. I knelt on the ground in front of my door and briefly considered running a wire through the mailbox to unlock my own door. My brother and mother were supposed to be away.

Then I remembered something.

I usually left my window open upstairs. All I needed to do was to break into the gated community next door and climb over half a dozen fences. So I broke into the gated community. A woman waved nervously at me as I climbed the spiky metal fence — unsure of whether to call the police or ask me what I was doing. I waved back confidently then climbed a huge stone wall to get to the wooden fences separating my terraced row.

The fences were 8-feet high and a few inches thick,

So I crawled like a cat across them through the thorny trees my neighbors had planted. My neighbor saw me. He offered me to climb down and use his ladder to get over the last fence and into my yard, after I explained to him what happened. I did.

Once there, I checked the door — also locked — and noticed my upstairs window. It didn’t seem open but I had to try. I climbed onto a flowerpot and back onto my fence. I then jumped ‘Prince of Persia’ style onto my window ledge and used one had to try and open it. It OPENED! I pulled it open all the way, then used the other half of the window — the part that didn’t swing — to pull myself in. I fell on my night stand and knocked over my lamp. My little brother entered the room. He was fucking home.

“Why aren’t you in a different country like you should have been?”

He shrugged. No fucks were given.
