"Yeah okey-dokey, mom!" saying without actually paying any attention, I moved out of the house. This was my favourite part of the day. (Or Umm well night..?) Me, all alone taking a late evening stroll through the colony, thinking of all the big issues, small -2 -party arguments in my mind, the actual ME time!

It had rained an hour ago.

The smell of Fresh rains, the fragrance of the wet soil, the cool-winterly-wind occassionally chilling you out of your senses....

Nah. Nothing. Just humongous potholes that sneer at you, the constant honking of the irritated-job-hating-guys. Yeah. So romantic.

(This is the part when I really want you to concentrate. My life going downhill is kind of exciting. Ah nostalgia.)

I passed Jen's house. My favourite part of the late-evening-stroll-thing.

Jen's like the cutest girl of our class. Features that of a hollywood star.  Eyes as blue as the ocean, dark black curly hair falling all over her beautiful face, a smile that would definitely fetch her a colgate advertisement one day. And the best part. She is my best friend. She was always at her balcony when I came out for my stroll.

But tonight she wasn't at the balcony. All the lights of her house were switched off. That never happens.

I turned around to back to my house. Just round the corner, I kicked a pebble and it somehow hit the unfriendliest dog in the world. 

"Nice..uh..weird doggy. I would never hurt you..

The dog growled. It barred its teeth at me, showing off the complete set of teeth. And without wasting a moment, it growled and started chasing me.

And the worst part. I started off a little late.

" Back off you son-of-a-bitch" I BARKED, which by the way, is NOT insulting for a dog. Still angry at myself for being chased by a dog, and failing to insult it, I ran as fast as Tom Cruise does in the Mission Impossible 6 rooftop scenes . (I am a huge Mission Impossible fan . Quite obvious from the second reference so early. Anyway, Tom's getting faster in Every installment)

Where was I? Yeah running. Suddenly the barking stopped. The dog retreated without a noise. I, still stunned, looked at the scared-out-of-it's-dog-wit dog, with unbelieving eyes. I turned around just to see a man swinging a huge, gross, club at my face. That's the last thing I saw. The unbearable pain that swept of my left ear, was enough to knock me out. 

And the funniest part. I still don't understand, why in the world, at 10 in the night, would Jen's father swing a club at me.
