"Roger Sir" I saluted.
I immediately locked the doors and triggered the alarm connecting to my room right after he left. I was now in charge of the house. Since it was parent free night, I and my little chubby did what every kid had dreamt of when their parents ain't around. When we were tired of the fun, we then set to our final destination, the television. She fell asleep at the middle of the first movie.
"Huh, and you were boasting to watch five episodes till you sleep?" Guess she's not a TV fan.
I carried her to her room and made sure she was sleeping tight. I watched fifteen episodes till I was exhausted and then I went to sleep as today, the last day of the week. I was dawn already and I set off to sleep. Enjoying my peace on the bed, the alarm triggered and I quickly woke up to see what had happened.
"Oh no, how did he get in here???" I spoke to myself.
I knew I locked every corner in the room but someone was able to break in. When I checked the CCTV from my computer, he had broke in from the window of the dinning hall. I started to panic and didn't know what to do.
"What should I do, what should I do???" I murmured to myself and gave my cheeks some few slaps.
"What will dad do in situations like this???" I thought about it and finally had an idea.
"[I'm the man of the house] Yes! I'm the man of the house now. I'm in charge and no one messes in my house." There came my bravery that was hidden for a lifetime.
I went to check on my sister if she was alright, cause the robber was still downstairs. I woke her up and told her to hide under the bed and I will come for her later. Even though she didn't know what was going on but she knew that there is trouble so she did as I said.
"She is safe, let's head to business." I said.
I went back to my room to check on the stat of the thief and he was in the kitchen doing weird things. If he was to be hungry, I would have let him off the hook but a thief and a rude man at the same time, this scumbag is in trouble. I took my baseball bat and went down stairs slowly. I went to the basement and set some booby traps for him. When I came back, I locked all the corridors carefully so he wouldn't find out. And finally I locked the kitchen's door. He struggled to open but to no avail. He tried the other door and it opened, went through the corridor and came to a dead end. His only way was the basement.
"Open the door you freak!" I whispered to myself.
After he hesitantly stood there, he finally opened the door and went inside.
"Gotcha!" I was so excited that my plan worked.
The door automatically locked when he triggered the first trap. All I had to do was to wait for him and do the finishing nicely. I waited for him outside as it was the only way to exit from the basement. After waiting for forty five minutes till he came out of the loop hole set for him.
"Ughh, leaving already. The fun just start and you too are leaving. Alright, that means game over." I murmured to myself.
He was really scared to death as to know how he fell into a trap knowing no elderly person was in the house. So, I perfectly mimicked my father's voice and scared him to hell real time.
"HEY YOU FREAKING MITWIT, TAKE THIS AS YOUR SECOND CHANCE TO LIVE AND BREATH!!! THE NEXT TIME YOU COME, I WILL CUT YOUR LIMBS AND FEED IT TO YOU ON THE DINNING TABLE!!!" I yelled at him as he ran for his life.
"Huh(exhales) what a relief." I had a little fun.
It seemed I was prepared for the big match ahead of me. The morning, it had spread across the town like a virus transforming into a deadly plague. My parents were a little worried but calmed down when they saw we were alright.
"Next time make him feel the REAL ACTION son." my father encouraged.
"Aiyaa Captain!" I responded with pleasure.
"Well it seems training my son wasn't a bad idea at all, Eben." my mum said.
"Yeah! big brother was the man of the house!" Sarah and her excitement over everything.
"That's right honey, he's my CODED MAN." my father replied.
All went smoothly the morning and we all went back to our post. I and my sister went to school and my father went to work to explain things further. After class, the pickups came to pick up on me again. But I had had enough of their games so I decided to end it. I brutally beat them up like crazy. It was really fun to pile up all of it and give it to them just a day. I really had fun.
"You freaking pigs! The next time I see you picking on someone even on a dustbin, you are in trouble." I warned.
"Yes sir!" they replied.
"I'm not sir, from now on, I'm the BULLY KING here. What did I say....???" I scared them.
"Yes Bully King. We will follow you with our mind, heart, soul and all that is within us Bully King!" they showed their honour to me.
At the end of the day, I felt satisfied and so I was resting, received a call from my cousin, Josh. He called and wanted to know about what happened last night. But he is worried and I don't wanna make things worse for him so, I don't think I have to tell him.
"Please can you tell me what happened??? You know I'm really worried." He asked much more concerned.
Let's put everything behind us and move on with the rest.
"Hehe.....about that, you know I'm used to situations like this, so hakuna matata." I rest assured.
"Then I will be coming there tomorrow so we can have fun." he said.
"Yeah! Tomorrow is weekend right, so come let's play." I replied.
They following day, I woke up early and finished my chores right before Josh came. We were having much fun playing football until, I unfortunately kicked the ball so hard that it went into my father's room. To make things clear, I broke my father's window. Oh man! I'm really screwed up, big time. I know what will be coming next.
"DOMINIC!!! COME HERE YOU SON OF A PINK MONION!!!" My father furiously yelled at me.
"I'm your own son dad." I replied to something I clearly know I shouldn't talk about.
"Oh, you were a dead man but now!!! YOUR GHOST WON'T EVEN MAKE IT TO THE AFTER LIFE!!! I'LL KILL YOU AND YOUR AFTERLIFE AS WELL!!!" I yelled back.
Well guys, think I will have to leave you here and negotiate with death. Since we all heard him, I won't make it here so, see you in the afterlife if only I manage to escape him.
THE END.
