I can hear the rain dropping on the roof, the drops are getting faster and faster as I hear it starts to turn into hail. I can tell that it's one of those Sundays that getting up early, it's just not going to happen, but i’ll have to at some point. I thought to myself that if i'm going to get up then the easiest way is to get someone to pull the covers off me. I shouted “China, come and pull the covers off me or else I won't be able to get myself out of bed today.” She came and chucked the covers onto the floor and left, I was just laying there in my bed shivering.
I quickly got off my mattress and put my clothes on then went to go get my socks and they weren't there? Where could they be? My whole sock collection drawers were all blank and had nothing in them. I quickly ran to the washing basket because my feet were freezing, they weren't there? I went to the clean clothes pile that I have to put away and they weren't there, where else could they be? I checked my sisters room (China) to see if she had even one pair of my socks but she doesn't, the only pairs of socks she has are size 4’s.
I went to ask my parents to see if they have my socks but then I remembered after walking halfway through the hall-way that they both are at work because they're on call out and they both got called to go to work early this morning. I was at home shivering until my sister said “why don't you call up one of your friends to see if you could borrow some of their socks?” I said back, “great idea i’ll do that now.” “Ring, ring, ring, ring and please leave a message after the BEEP!!!” Oh what am I going to do, It just hit me that what if i'm going to spend the whole day without my precious socks.
I sit on my naked bed because i'm too lazy to make it back up from when China chucked the covers off me and onto the ground, I have freezing cold feet and i'm just sitting there thinking about what I can do to get my socks back until I realised, they were stolen!!! I quickly ran to the phone and dialed 111 and told them everything about my nike socks collection and how a thief has stolen them from my drawers. it took a long time to persuade them that what I was saying was one hundred percent true, so they said “do we need to be there in a hurry,” and I said “YES be quick because my feet are freezing and I think that they're going to die and fall off.” I put down the phone and waited for them to arrive at my house.
I thought to myself while I was waiting for the police to arrive that I probably won't have to tell my parents because they don't wear socks so they probably won't care. I heard the siren come up my driveway so I was just preparing myself and telling my sister what I said to the police that everything will be ok and the thief we be in jail and hopefully die for stealing my possessions.
The police came through my door with all of their protective clothes on and I went to show them my drawers and all my socks were in there. I don't understand, I'm happy that their back but how did they get back there. One of the cops said, “you have wasted our time so we're going to charge you $50 because there could've been a real accident out there and we couldn't of help because of your stupid sock collection that was all fake.” After I paid the police, they left and I put on my socks and waited till mum and dad came home.
