I squared my shoulders and with my best prayer to heavens,I lunged forward to give the stranger a heavy blow on his head.But to my immense astonishment,the person toppled off without so much as an OUCH let alone a shriek of agony.That was strange as I had put as much power as I was capable of in that blow.
But I didn't wait to ponder that fact and charged forward again with my hands balled up into fists for the first punch and again to my great astonishment,his face yielded beneath my fist.WHAT THE RUDDY HELL WAS HAPPENING?
At that precise moment lights flickered on and I found myself staring at my brother's life-size teddy bear.Mr.Frosty!For the teeniest part of a second I stared nonplussed at the russet brown teddy and then with a vehement exclaimation,I extricated myself from the floor.Apparently my brother had a knack of leaving his toys here and there.Usually his deeds irritated me to death but today he had scared me to death!HOW ON EARTH SOMEONE SO SMALL CAN BE SO AWEFULLY IRRITATING?I kicked Mr.Frosty aside and stalked off to the kitchen in great dudgeon.I will should have a few words with my stupid brother.After all he had nearly given me a heart attack!
I drank atleast a gallon of water,still my throat was dry.I made my way out to the balcony.I hadn't noticed in all my agitation that the violent storm was replaced by gentle breeze.I let the light drizzle wash away the beads of perspiration.Gradualy the swirling haze calmed my frayed nerves and substitiuted my anger with exasperation and amusement at my own hilarious attitude.I shook my head sadly at my out of control,wild imagination.Who knows perhaps thes are symptoms of an impending mania?Well I always thought that there was something seriously wrong with my mind so it shouldn't be surprising really.
I wondered idly whether I would tell my family and friends about my craziness but thought better of it.I didn't think I would be able to stand their guffaws and howls of laughter at my pigheadedness.Though confronting my brother and giving him hell felt like an intriguing idea.Oh well!I was still a bit petulant.But tonight's incidence has definitely scared the living daylight out of me.
