'THE BAD DOOR'

I started a blog in 2011 then didn't blog at all? joy thats nasty! get yourself together!!
Bt it's always great to read others.kwanza lately..ive read enuff blogs! n i got a story to tell..like i got so many stories just locked up in my mind i wonder how i survive waking up everyday n doing all human basics!smh

ok..'THE BAD DOOR'..

Yesterday at 4.00pm at the office i was pressed...yeah i was so damned pressed I had to pee.so i dashed to the loo n got inside so quick that i forgot about that 'bad door' loo. yeah,thats what is written from inside, 'BAD DOOR,DO NOT CLOSE'. We have 3loos on our floor. the first 2 are ok,perfect and fit for use.then the 3rd one. its door has no handle  from inside. thats why we have the warning.

Ok i get inside, forget about the 'bad door' n go straight to bizz.as i look up i read the warning then it hits me that i just banged the 'bad door' on my way inside! or was it the wind? well, i can't remember, told u i was too pressed.nothing else was on my minde. Then  I freak out so hard i hurry dressing up so i can start unlocking the 'bad door'. im thinking maybe the door just needs a little hard pulling.

(NOTE: this is not the first time someone's getting stuck in that loo..i've been here for almost 2months n i've heard storos from other offices.in fact last week i helped out a lady who got stuck in the same loo. i laughed at her so badly.in fact i LMAFAOd if there's such a thing! i had even bragged to everyone in the office before that i can never get stuck in that loo. i just couldn't understand how, when its even written on the wall. Now karma was back.. maybe...)

i start pulling...nothing. i pull from the top..then middle..then down. still nothing. i smh (infact i'm just shaking my head literally as im writing this) then i burst into laughter..''still cant believe this is me'' i whisper to myself. then i continue pushing from the middle.nothing. i take a keen look then i realize the metalic part that usually protrudes on the side actually got in the hole on the other frame. so i cant do much. it has to be opened from outside. at least the outside has a handle.

I laugh again. then i say "aah,i'm sure someone is coming here pretty soon. no worries". so i wait..5minutes...10minutes nothing.i'm a bit worried by now but i dont want to admit it. then i start thinking about those movies..yeah,so such things can be true stories? i smh again. i rly like doing that. you must've noticed it if we've ever met.

Sigh. Then i climb up the cistern, look ourside,at least the outer door is open, just a bit though.i console myself. then i'm thinking maybe i should try climbing up then jump down to the next loo then i get out. but it's too high.i'm not a tomboy as such. n the bars are too dusty.yeah, the cleaners never climb up to wipe the bars they only clean the loos then mop the floor.quite reasonable.i wouln't do it too if i was one.

its about 25 minutes now,that means its 4.25pm nobody has even bothered to get pressed! i start getting panic attackes bt i lie to myself again. im even a bit sweaty n realize i'm shaking.finally i say that 1 million dollar prayer,
'Lord plz send someone here''. nobody came.

it's now 33 minutes or so. not that i have a watch but i can estimate. yeah i'm usually good at estimating. i've waited enough for lots of things since i was young.from friends...to fam...u know those who keep u waiting in front of 20th Century for months? yeah. (nods)

then i hear the lady next door chatting up some guys, she's usually loud,i wonder what thrills her with all those boring court clerks in her office. Suddenly i get that light bulb on my head! since i can hear her from the loos, it means she can hear me if i call her. luckily, i know her name. ''Suzan!" nothing. "Suzaan!!" "Suzaaaaaaaaan!!!!!!" nkt! so she cant hear ama she's just ignoring?  "Suzaaaaaaaaaan!!!!" "Suz..!!! then the outside door opens!

pheuuuuxx! she heard,she came n opened!!

Luckily our loos are usually very clean n i was just doing a pee!
