Night Visitors
The nights were meant for relaxation, rest ,sleep and decluttering and lifting off all the stress experienced during the day, it could be from work, businesses, academics, whatever it could be from. This sleep could give you a balanced next day because you will wake up, feel lighter and refreshed and ready for the new day.
It's been three nights since I resumed school and I haven't had a good night's rest. The first Night was a physical nightmare , just trying to deal with the vampire mosquitoes to battling with heat after the Lights went out and just when I could shut my eyes, I heard my roommates calling my Name to get up coz there's a thief Trying to steal.
During my last Semester, after a long night of prepping for my exams the next day, I came back to the hostel at 3am in the morning. Drowsy and sleepy as I was, I left my phone and power bank on top of my storage which happened to be By my Window. The lights came on and I managed to Get up and power my Phone leaving the power bank on the Storage.
A few minutes later, while catching some sleep, I heard my roommate screaming my name as though she just encountered a monster sucking Life out of her. I jumped out of the Bed Wondering what it was but she wasn't so calm to give an outright answer.
She was shivering, thick goosebumps encapsulated her hold body and she had fallen from the Top Bunk. We were all curious but even before she said a word , the deed was done and just before I could turn my Eyes my property had vanished into Darkness.
She woke up to read while I was asleep. While she was reading she sighted my powerbank on the Storage but then , her attention was solely on her book and she was concerned about the Power Bank. A few minutes Later , according to what she reported, she said that she saw the Powerbank floating on the air and before she could focus her vision on It , it vanished.
After rushing to sight of the Incident , I noticed that the thief careful Tore the Window Net and was able to open the louvers through one of the Holes available. From the There he stretched his hands which could fit the Burglary and took out the power bank. All this was done Meticulously and Noise free. Also bring that j want tired and feeling drowsy from the night class I didn't even know what was going on.
It wasn't the only room he stole from because all the rooms were alerted and the night was serenaded with cries from students who had been robbed through the window that Night. It wasn't a pleasant event as I have never been robbed before. Ever since then we've been very conscious even while sleeping.
And three nights ago he came back to resume his robbery, still trying to tear the windows but we were alerted and all our properties were hidden, all the lights were turned off and we were just laying awaiting whatever was gonna happen.
I just got my New device a month ago and I would want to give it out to a thief just like that, so I paked all my gadgets and stuffed them inside my pillow.
The nights have been very very very creepy, coz we've been hearing a lot of robbery attacks and I'm still hopeful that it doesn't come my way coz I came to study medicine, not to turn to a Cop.
It's not that bad, a polyvalent Nurse can be a COP🤪🤪🤪
These nights we just lay on our beds, very alert and somehow awaiting our Night visitors.
That’s really sad to hear that people would do something so shitty! It does suck because our bedrooms are supposed to be our safe space in a lot of ways. This definitely impacts that!
