~Hauntings?~
So what happened after the dinner? Nothing much actually...the usual...clubbing.
A funny thing happened when I came back though...normally, I washed my face by mixing hot water and cold but that night, no hot water came out of the hot water tap! Well, anyway I thought nothing of it and decided to see if the hot water comes back in the morning.
Next morning, again! No hot water! I was ready to complain I tell ya! Anyway, I came out of my room, into the corridoor and saw D taking the kettle out of the kitchen...
Me: What are you doing?
D: Going to take a bath (with a surprise-why-do-u-wan-to-know-u-k-po look on her face)
Me: No, I mean with the kettle
D: Oh.....there's no hot water and I can't bathe without hot water!
Me: Oh! So you dun have hot water too! I thought I was the only one!
D: Listen!
Me: Listen to what?!
D: Can't you hear? The sound of running water? Some prick must have left the water on upstairs and drain all the hot water! A (another flatmate) heard it since last night!
True enough, I heard the sound of a tap running as if it was free of charge! (actually it is, since water was included in the rent already) D proceeded to call her friend who was working on guard shift for our accommodation then and complained. During which I realised the sound gets louder in some parts along the corridoor, so I went to check out where it sounded the loudest. I then realised that the sound was really loud at room 2. If you press your ears on room 2's door, it sounded like it was coming from inside!
Now...here's the thing. No one lives in room 2 and it had been always locked, except for a short period time when the management thought someone is gonna move in but that was over 3 months ago. I didn't make much of it anyway 'cos I thought the sound was probably from the room 2 of upstairs!
I then told D to press her ears on room 2's door and listen and she agreed with me that it really sounded like it was from that room. She wanted to go and call her friend again to inform him about our new discovery but just then, he came through our door.
D asked him if he found anything from upstairs and he said no. She then told him to listen at room 2's door. He did and proceeded to unlock the door (they have a master key which can open every door in the accommodation! How cool is that! quite scary oso...imagine if they get a non-trustworthy fellow....anyway, let's get back to the story.) He went in and viola! The hot water tap of room 2 turned on full blast!
Me and D's jaw dropped to the floor I tell ya! I swear the door of room 2 is always locked and anyway her friend had to unlock it, proving that it was locked! So how did the tap turned on the previous night!
*Shudder* Freaky...eerie...scary!
