Dorothy Luk and the Attack of the Spider

This evening, was no normal evening for protagonist, Dorothy. She was dressing after her satisfying shower, not knowing of the great danger she was in. As she usually does, she scanned the room, admiring the mess she has, but suddenly, something caught her eye.

*dun dun daaaaa*

There! A spider! On the curtain! Waiting, for the moment to leap on her when she least expected it! OHHH no no no - Dorothy saw It, and she was not going to let It defeat her.

After 5 minutes of screaming [not because of fear. ahem...strictly for scarING purposes..ahem..], her younger, taller, supposedly more intelligent sister suggested the use of fly spray. HA. Dear Jessica, fly spray is to kill flies. This was no fly. It was a dangerous spider! The great 0.5 cm tall, 1 cm wide spider glared at me as I retreated from the room. Little did It know, I was returning with BUG SPRAY.

Let me tell you about this "Bug Spray". It is in a red can. It was called All-Purpose Bug Spray. The brand is Mortein. This was supposed to be fast-killing. The can said that it would only take one spray. Perfect.

I entered the room again, strong and confident with my new weapon in hand. After some dramatic James Bond moves and hiding behind lamps and such. I stared at It, spray in hand.

Gosh. It was scarey. The legs were MASSIVE and THICK [well, as massive and thick it can get for a 1cm sized spider]. *shivers*

Aim. Fire. *spray*

AND THE SPIDER, DID NOT. DIE. Infact! It went completely psycho and scuttled all over my room. I had a panic attack and sprayed EVERYWHERE, completely making my room a toxic area. But the battle was not over yet.

I could handle one more spray. This single last spray, separated victory from ..well. defeat.

I searched for the spider once more. Gosh. The small size is problematic. I SAW IT! On my little brothers story book and under a bag. I aimed precisely. Took a deep breath of toxic air. SPRAY.

*SILENCE*

Well, I didn't really expect a scream from a spider.. But I didn't see any movement. I did not know if it was dead or not. Nor could I actually really see it. So, the only thing left to do was it stare it down for 20 minutes.

After texting my body guard who .. well, was not there to save me.. several times, I finally approached the bag and discovered............................

... *giggles* I won.

....... DAMMIT. I had to pick it up now, and put it in the bin.

Now, It's entire family is going to hunt me down while I'm asleep. I'm very scared.

I hope you all remember that I love you, just in case I don't make it through another day.
