Hey Dad,

So the title of this letter wasn't that difficult to come up with and I'll explain why.

So there's this video game that I like to play, right, called Dota 2. And one of my favourite heroes in the entire game is called Phantom Assassin. And she has this one ability called Blur where she's able to disappear off the map so she can easily sneak up on people.

Well, this is a story of when I went to Chiang Mai with my group of friends, Rex, Cheetah, and Honey.

So at Chiang Mai we stayed at Honey's house which was kinda like a mansion, imagine our house in Perfect side-to-side with a two car garage in the middle connected by an overhanging corridor. And in this house only one side was used to the corridor leading to the other part of the house and the other house itself was insanely creepy, right.

And it was probably like 10-11 at night we were in the dining room and we were gonna watch Harry Potter because Cheetah had never seen it (Heathen, I know. I know.). But we had the laptop, the charger, the food all set up but we forgot one important thing...the hard drive the film was on. And I did not want to go upstairs and get it because even the journey just to the bedroom was creepy because you walk past that corridor, past a room that's directly across from yours that's not in use, and a spiral staircase right next to your door. So many nopes for me.

But Cheetah and Rex were trying to adjust the sound and make the laptop stand where it could be clearly seen by the four of us so I didn't want to be like, "Yeah, one of you guys go get it." because I didn't want them to know I was scared.

'Cause you know, I'm a man. Grr.

Anyhow, I walked upstairs terrified out of my mind but i tried to look brave, you know. After I got up the stairs to where they couldn't see me, I bolted to the bedroom and turned on the light switches so that there was no darkness. And it was a cozy room, so I felt safe - I got a nice breather. So I walk to the bed where we had our tech spilled all over and I found the hard drive but I heard something behind me and I was petrified.

Okay, not to interrupt but here's the second part to the backstory. So Honey loves this book series called the Throne of Glass series. (If she knew I read it without telling her she'd kill me - probably not anymore she wouldn't care, anyway I digress). And the main protagonist is an assassin so she LOVES assassins. She got mad at me because I named one of my friends "Snowy Assassin" after Snow Leopards and she got the name "Peckish". Because she's on #TeamAmerica and hates the pretentious British people. 

Okay, side note. I should explain a # to you. It's a "hashtag" not a pound sign. It's when you want to relate it to a topic - It's for people who use Twitter. Don't make me explain Twitter.

Okay, so back to the story.

So I hear a sound behind me and petrified I turn around and there's Honey standing right behind me like she was sneaking up on me. Like I was a victim and she was the assassin. 

No joke I was so terrified I probably jumped about a foot in the air.

And that's why she's the Phantom Assassin.

Love you always,

Nasri
