This is a guest post by my former classmate and friend Shivansh… This is the first guest post on my blog so I am feelin’ gooood now…

It was 3.27 in the morning, as I casually glanced at the clock and got out of bed to pee. I was glad I didn’t have to wake up to the alarm next morning. I was free of it all. No more school, no more Mum yelling at me for studying, no more tuitions. “Ah! This is life…” I thought to myself. I was glad and I could see the wide smile on my face in the mirror. But now I didn’t want to sleep. Yes, why would I sleep? I had always wanted to see the “adult” magazine I had stolen from Dad’s desk.

I dashed to my closet and drew from the lower most shelf, an old copy of some magazine. The name was ‘Man’s World’. It was safely hidden between two old shirts of mine, away from Mum’s reach. I did enjoy that book but again got bored very soon, looking at the pictures of models posing in bikini.

Now I wanted to do something different. Maybe have fun on the phone. Yea I think I would have loved that. So I quickly got to the phone and dialed whatever numbers came to my mind. The bell rang for over 15-20 seconds and then an old woman picked it up. In a shrilled voice, she said “Hellooo” and I got scared out of my wits. She seemed like the old woman in the movie ‘Haunted House’. I put the receiver down and got my breath back.

But still I couldn’t be stopped by an old woman. So I, again picked up the receiver and dialed my friend’s number. After many rings his Mom picked up. I said “Hastala Vista, Baby” and put the phone down. This made me laugh and smile for over a minute. I enjoyed doing it, disturbing people at night for no apparent reason. It sure was fun. I, again called up another number, one which I dint know. As soon as the girl picked up, I said “I love you”. Listening to a childish voice, she said “Love you too sweety”. Both of us laughed for quite some time. She then asked me, what I was doing at this time in the night. I told her I didn’t want to sleep. Very soon we struck a chord and started chatting. I was enjoying the conversation, explaining to her why I fought with Rahul, when suddenly I heard some noise from outside. I quickly noted down the number of that girl and told her that I would chat with her later. I thought for some time, “what could that noise could be?” Then it clicked to me, that it could be the thief on the prowl.

Now I was reminded of my friend Nikhil who claimed to be Sherlock Homes because he once caught the boy in school who stole his pencil. I thought this was my chance to prove to him that I was better. I quickly brought my night vision goggles and a hockey stick and set out on a mission… to nab the thief in my house.

I picked up the gunny bag lying on the floor and brought a rope from the toilet. Well equipped to catch the thief red handed I swiftly got to the kitchen from where I could get a clear view of the thief. As I moved into the kitchen, I stepped on Bravo, my pet dog, who was lying right near the door. He scowled but didn’t bark. I asked him to stay calm and pushed him deeper inside the kitchen.

Now I brought my attention back to the living room. I peeped out of the kitchen and what I saw made me giggle. I saw the thief watching TV sitting on the couch. After a soft laugh to myself I got the gunny bag and leaped towards the man. But somehow he turned back and to my utter shock was my very own FATHER!!!

I said “Dad, what are you watching at this time?” Saying this I looked at the TV where I saw Jenna Jameson stripping…
