1. A SLEEPLESS NIGHT
One night I was alone at home with my ten-year-old
daughter. She woke me up in the
middle of the night: "Mum, mum! There is a man
outside the house. He is watching me
through the window!"
I looked out of the window. I could see the shape of a
man outside. Who was he? What
was he doing there?
"I must get to the telephone in the hall and
telephone the police," I thought.
I went downstairs hardly daring to breathe, afraid
that he would hear my movements. I
reached for the telephone, lifted the receiver and
dialled 999. The police answered and I
explained what had happened. They said that they would
come at once.
Soon a police car stopped in front of the house. I
hurried downstairs and opened the
front door. A police officer came in.
"What has happened?" he asked.
After listening to my story he went out, and after a
while returned.
"It's all right," he said. "I have just
seen that man. He is walking his dog. By the way, he
lives in the house opposite.
