It was fucking weird and scary. Last night I was soundly asleep, when heared what sounded like by door being banged by a heavy wind, I did not rouse initially, but the banging continued, so I got up. I went out the 'hallway' of my flat and I found that it was not the wind, but rather that someone was trying to unlock my door. I quickly came to the conclusion that this was someone who must be drunk and was attempting to gain access to my flat. I quickly tried to come up with a plan to deal with this, I was afraid that a drunk person could pose just as much a threat to me as someone attempting to burgularise my flat. Unfortunately my door does not have a spy hole, so I had to prepare to deal with an unknown. The best I could do was to grab a big knife and ready myself. I waited for a short while, hoping the person would leave. But no, they just tried over and over and over to access my door. Eventually they became more violent and begun to bang my door. So I decided it was about time I dealt with it. My body was coursing with adrenaline, so I was ready as I would ever be.
I shouted through the door in the most threatening voice and manner I could muster "What the FUCK are youd doin?" I don't know if it was a loud, angry froeigner or just threatening, but I heard footsteps leading away after I shouted. I left the footfalls continue before I peaked out. I recognised the sound of heels, so the attemptee was a woman. I deemed her far enough away, so I chanced a glance at this woman. She heard me open the door and her pace increased. She wanted to escape actual notice. She failed. I waited, but she did not leave the building, she simply went to the floor below and tried her luck on the door directly below.
I can only conclude that she does in fact live in this building, but she continued to struggle with the door below, before she finally either gave up or actually found her room. I returned to my room and the adrenaline rushed from my body, but it still took me a while to go to sleep.
This was not a pleasant experience, not by any means. I am of course glad that the event ended as it did, with no violence, but I would much prefer it to never have occurred in the first place.
