It’s 5am.

15min ago I woke up to the sound of our dog barking. I had to use the bathroom so I went downstairs and decided to see what nonsense our dog was barking at. When I looked outside, to my shock and surprise, I saw a person in our yard wearing an orange jump suit holding a lighter to the ground. My heart skipped. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Maybe I was half asleep or dreaming? I thought, is this the gas company? The person stood up and was holding some papers. They quickly opened the gate and left. The way they moved and their build suggested it was a skinny woman. I’m not sure. I tried to see where this person was going but they seemed to dissappear.

Completely weird.

Now I’m up looking around outside to see if they come back. I’m not sure what to do if they do except yell at them or try to chase them down, or go out there with a crowbar or my martial arts sword, or what?
