Peeping Tom
The best thing about having a basement bedroom was that it was separate from the rest of the family. And it was cool – downright cold in summer thanks to the A/C. I loved my space and could do my own thing, undisturbed.
I was changing for bed when suddenly a ruckus broke out and I could hear thundering steps above my head and yells followed by the front door slamming. What the hell?
I looked out my window and saw my father and uncle chasing a guy down the street.
He’d been having a look-see at me without my knowing.
Neat dad and brother! It is true….right?
One never knows with you, Thunder!
Okay, in my warped mind; at first I thought I read, (The best thing about having a basement bedroom was that I had my own peeping Tom)
I closed my eyes, and when I opened them, the sentence had changed.
Some kind of Hocus Pocus going on here!

Creepy! I’m always a little paranoid when near windows in less than full attire, but I also like natural light a lot. It’s a trade-off. 🙂

Well told Dale. I felt a creepy vibe from the start – clue in the title I guess. Based on a true story ?

Ooooooooo creepy and icky. And true? Did they catch him. Your Dad and uncle are awesome for chasing after the dude, bet he didn’t do that again in a hurry.

True. And no, Dad did not catch him. And Dad would have had a conniption fit if he knew I knew who it was… which I did!
