Monday, September 29- I'm weirded out

                     As soon as I arrived, I could tell something was out of place. I had just walked downstairs because I though I heard someone open our garage door. My parents were both at work and would not be home for another four hours. I walked around and noticed that a fresh, cold glass of water was on the counter. I called for my Dad because he could possibly be home. He had training that day. Nobody answered. A feeling of terror suddenly arrived in my heart. I quickly ran upstairs and locked myself in my bathroom. I tried to call both my parents and neither answered. This was also a sign they were still at work. I heard heavy foot steps walking around downstairs and I called for my dad again praying it was him. There was still no answer. I got as far away from the door as possible when footsteps started towards the door of my bathroom. I again called out for my dad because I could not accept the reality someone who I did not know was in my house. No answer. I screamed when the door started shaking and then relief flooded me when I heard my dad say, "Open the door, you're crazy." He told me he was joking with me. It worked, I was scared out of my mind. I was so thankful that nobody was really there.
