Get into the room means risk??

Yesterday was irritating because I had to climb my neighbor’s roof for getting in my room. Let me tell the story.

After I had dinner, I went to campus for updating my blog. Unfortunately the internet connection was being unconnected. Then I looked up to code on panel method analysis but I felt bored immediately. Before going back to my board, I watched a documentary movie titled ‘The Blue Planet.’ It’s such an interesting movie. I walked slowly to hear the whisper of dark night. It was beautiful though the sky was so pale without stars. Sound of leaves fell down and insects with their song completed the exquisiteness of that night.

My feeling changed severely as I’d just arrived at front of my board. I found the gate was locked. It was unusual. I tried to open it, but it didn’t work at all. So, I thought several possibilities to save my night of waiting dawn arise perplexedly front the gate.

1. Doing a phone call to my board. I didn’t think it was a good idea as it was almost 1.30 am. Moreover my mates are usually too lazy to pick up the phone. Phone at our board usually ring for kiosk need that owned by the owner of our board. So, I decided not to do it.
2. Going back to campus. It was neither good choice as the first idea. It was ridiculous went back to campus just for doing some sleep. So, naturally I avoided doing it.
3. Doing phone call to a friend and spend the night at his place. Ah, I did not want to disturb someone else’s rest.
4. Going to the mosque and sleeping there. No, no, no. Mosque for me just for doing prayer.
5. Climbing the gate. Still it was not good choice. The top side of gate set in by spike wire. “Don’t do something clumsy,” my heart whispered.
   

I became furious because there’s nothing that I could do. I spoke to myself, “who on earth locked the gate?” Suddenly I saw the wall next to kiosk. I thought I can climb it to get the roof and leap to the 2nd floor corridor of my board but I found that it to high. I almost gave up as I saw the wall gate of my board neighbor’s short enough to be climbed. The problem was: I had to cross over my neighbor’s roof. Man, it was so risky. How if someone saw me? I thought and thought, then decided not to do it. That’s enough. I walked away to internet kiosk. I thought to spend the rest of night at there, back to my first aim to update blog.

Actually, I just could stay there less than one hour and half. “Furious, everything gets expensive,” I spoke within my heart. I spent five thousand rupiah for such a little time. Almost 4 am., I wondered what should I do. Then, I thought to take all the risk of doing my ridiculous idea: climbing the wall and the roof of my neighbor to get in my room. I desperately needed to read. Reading until dawn is my routine (it is just interrupted by the time of sholat subuh). So, I went back to my board.

Hope nobody saw me, I climbed the wall carefully. Honestly, I afraid if there someone saw me and screamed that there was a thief on the roof. I climbed the higher wall before getting to the roof. Unfortunately, there were spike wire and branches of bougainvillea. Though, I kept moving carefully until I could reach the top. Walking on the roof was not easy because it had sharp gradient. My body was compelled to crawl so I could balance my body along my journey (Journey? Ridiculous, isn’t it? But I like to use it). Then I got the end of my neighbor’s roof. I had to walk through kiosk roof before getting the corridor. It was easier because the gradient’s not too significant. Finally, I could get the corridor barrier. A simple leap brought me to the 2nd floor of my board. Thank God, I could enter my room and read as usual.

I hope I’ve never found similar situation.
