Nobody believed me, but, it was true!. Two weeks ago, on Friday night, something really happened !

It was very dark that night. I was deep asleep. Suddenly I woke up, and heard "Squeek, Squeek".The very first thought that came to my mind was that it was a ghost for sure.Slowly, the sound got clearer. Soon, I knew that it was a mouse. I wanted to get rid of it, but I couldn't dare come out of my blanket. I kept on hiding in it for about another half hour.

Then I thought, "No, This is not right! I shouldn't be afraid of a little mouse!" I switched on the light and looked around for that tiny creature. Now my search had begun.Was it in the closet? No! Was it in the Kitchen? No! Not in the living room and not under my bed. I looked everywhere. I was tired,but, I didn't give up.

Finally I found it hiding behind my books on my study table. I exclaimed with joy -oh! "There you are! You little fellow".I chased him around. Then I got a broom,and scared him away.The very next day, the mouse came again. I was not scared because it was him. I wanted to catch it,but....it seemed like he disappeared into air.

Then I wondered where he had gone. I saw a hole in the wall. Oh! Now I got it! It was the mouse's house. I was finally happy once I found out where the mouse lived.

I waited for my little friend for about an hour or so. i also put out some biscuits and bread-crumbs. However, I never saw him again.After sometime, we moved to a new apartment and I never ever see that mouse again. I still miss my old house!
