"You gotta be kidding me, are you sure this lab has a licensed scientists?" I said to the bald guy with a serious look on my face.
"Yes... sir, I can't say they're the best.. but I'm pretty sure the scientists here are licensed." The bald guy replied.
"How many scientists are in there anyway?" I asked.
"It's confidential, I apologize for the results of the substance sir.. but it is what it is, you can't blame the scientists in here because they're only doing thier job." The bald guy said with a stern gesture.
I stopped arguing with the bald guy, before everything will get messy.. and pulled out the brown leathered wallet in my right pocket.
"How much is it?" I asked for the bill of the lab test.
"That'll be $29.25 sir." he replied.
I handed out the bill to the bald guy and walk out the establishment, I approached my Ducati motorcycle and check the unknown substance on the rims, but it's already dried up.
It's dark outside already, I checked the time on my wristwatch and the time displays 6:08 P.M. so I grabbed the key of my Ducati hanging from my neck and inserted it to the keyhole of the motorcycle, I reeve it up and hit the road. I still can't get over with the weird occurences that happened to me yesterday, and keep on thinking about it while driving on the way home.
"Oh man... what's happening to me.. does the unkown substance related to the missing time that happened to me yesterday? no-no-no-NO!! stop doing this to yourself Cairo, your just imagining things." I said on my thoughts while driving on Bomar street, I always pass this street on the way home.. because it's the quickest shortcut to our house, but unlike yesterday, it has no fog, no strange yellow light, and it's bustling with people walking on the sidewalks... everything on this street seems normal again.
I came home and just like I always do, I parked my Ducati near the garage on our front lawn. I walked inside our house and saw mom walking down the stairs, resting our cat Camelot on her both arms. I searched for a flashlight on the living room, Mom noticed that I'm searching for something..
"What're you searching for?" Mom asked.
"Have you seen the flashlight mom?" I replied while searching every corner of the living room, because granny used to keep it there.
"I think I saw it in the laundry room yesterday, you should check there." Mom said while standing on the staircase and petting Camelot.
"Ok, tnx mom.." I said while heading to the laundry room.
I entered the laundry room wich is located south west from the livingroom. The laundry room consists of grey walls with black polka dot design, brown floor, assorted stacked clothes, white ceiling, violate basket, and a two white top loader washing machines.
I searched the entire laundry room and minutes have passed, I finally saw the black colored HID flash light under the stacked assorted clothes.
I took the flashlight and headed outside to the front lawn, I entered the garage and turned on the flashlight on my right hand, to look for any sharp object that can pry the dried unknown substance sticking on the rims of my motorcycle. I walked to the rusted broken mercedes benz car and poked my head inside.. searching for a sharp object, until I noticed a shining metal on the lower left corner of my right eye.. so I looked down and saw a scalpel on the front seat. I grabbed it and rushed to my motorcycle to scrape the dried up unknown substance on the rims. After 30 minutes of scraping the driedup substance on the rims, I walked inside the garage to get a plastic. I took the yellow colored plastic hanging on the embedded nail inside the garage wall and headed to my ducati to put the scraped dried up substance inside it.
I scraped the unknown substance, because I'm planning to keep it.. just in case the legionella lab scientists finally discovers the origins of the substance and find it useful. So if the legionella scientist were looking for more of it, I can sell the scraped dried up substance to them..
After I finnished putting the scraped dried up substance inside the plastic, I stood up and entered the garage.
I approached the rusted mercedes benz and put the plastic inside the toolbox at the backseat of the car, then I walked inside our house to eat something in the kitchen. As I entered the kitchen.. I saw Camelot puking, so I grabbed him before he vommits on the floor.
"Hey, bad kitty!" I said while rushing him outside our house.
I walk towards the sink and washed my hands.. then I opened the fridge and grabbed a slice of pepperoni pizza to fill me up, because my stomache were grumbling.
I had my fill, so I walked to the livingroom to watch a tv show titled "Supernatural" as I approach the sofa, I saw my android phone beside the sony bravia tv, so I took it and put it inside my left pocket. After I finnished watching the show.. I head upstairs and entered my bedroom. I sit on my bed and grab my android phone wich is in the left side of my pocket, then I saw my white colored earphones dangling at the edge of the brown closet, so I approach and take it.
I put the earphones on, and browse the music playlist in my phone. The song titled
"Keane - Somewhere only we know" caught my attention, so I played it. This song is like a lullaby on my ears, so my eyes began to feel heavy.. and I fall asleep.I woke up early the next morning because I feel like I need to go to the bathroom, so I rushed to the bathroom and urinate.
I was walking back to my bedroom and passed by to our front lawn window, until I noticed a vehicle-looking stuff outside our front lawn through the window, but I can't make it out clearly because it's still dark. I checked my wristwatch and it displays 4:08 A.M., I was curious of who's the owner of the vehicle and what's it doing in our front lawn early in the morning. So I walked downstairs and grabbed the flashlight lying on the floor in the livingroom.. while rushing outside to the front lawn, to take a closer look of the intruder.
I walked slowly towards the vehicle, and pointed the flashlight on it.
I was stunned when I saw the vehicle's appearance.. I can feel the hairs on my arms standing up because of it's futuristic look. The size of it is almost the same as a 4 stacked moto jets and the vehicle's shape is oblate, it has 8 circled windows.. the color of it is red in the upper part and silver on the lower part, with 4 bluish lights emmited from it's rear, and a hieroglyphic writings is encrypted around the vehicle.
I walked closer and closer to the vehicle, and suddenly the vehicle's door opened.
A two humanoid figure wearing violate one-piece suit, holding a shiny silver rod on their right hands, and a black pear shaped helmet is on their heads, they ejects from the vehicle and one of them pointed the shiny silver rod on me.
Suddenly my legs become numb, and the numbness from my legs is climbing to my upper body.. until I completely weakened and plummets to the ground..
My eyesights are getting weak, but I can still see them approaching me, until I completely lose my consciousness.
I don't know what happened after that, but I do know that things will be different now...
