Later that night was when it all began for me... Somehow I had managed to find sleep amidst the madness when my phone rang with a buzz from atop the shelf beside of my bed . Wriggling about the bed ; I turned to grab it, placing it over my ear, too tired to check who the caller was.
"hello, Allen speaking.. " I said exhaustedly. "Allen!.. Can you hear me?! " my dad's voice sounded tensed over the line, "yah dad, what's wrong? " I asked worriedly, the tone in his voice along with the tumult of noise erupting from the background had got me sitting on edge. " where's your mother?! ". "she's asleep in the master's bedroom, dad is something the matter?" I asked again.. Although having a conjecture to what the issue might be.. I had refused to accept it.
"oh thank God! Allen listen to me; lock all the doors and windows, don't let anyone in...go get your mum, Stay quiet the both of you and make sure all the lights are turned off. I'm on my way.. ", " dad!.. " I tried calling out to him; but the line had already dropped dead before I could utter the next row of words 'what the fuck is going on?!?! '.
I hurried out the door and into the corridor; as a commotion of noise from outside had immediately drawn my attention. Rushing to the window at the end of the hallway I stared out... And beheld, as hell was let loose.
