What to Do When Locked Out of the House - Info
One day I found myself locked out of my house. It was a crazy day, I had lost track of the deliveries for the week and was running low on essentials, but luckily I still had my key to the house. I quickly locked the door and went looking for some cigarettes, beer, and other "drugs". As soon as I got inside I noticed there was someone in my house. I immediately asked, "Who is that?"
She answered, "This is Eagle. He locked himself in your unlocked car." I wasn't very sure what to make of this because she just came into my house with a friend. The two of them looked serious and didn't have good intentions.
I quickly tried to open the door, but it was locked. I quickly scanned the floor for a clue, but I only found empty soda cans, beer bottles and condoms. I then asked her what happened, but she said she didn't know.
I then asked, "When did you leave your house?" She told me she walked out the back door and locked herself in the backseat. She asked me if I locked the door because she saw a "guy" running towards her and she didn't know who it was. I told her no, I locked the back door while she was inside and then left her in the backseat while I went outside to find a locksmith and report the incident.
I returned minutes later to find a cop in the parking lot with a piece of paper in his hand. He told me she had called him saying she needed help. I asked why she would call thecop on a non-emergency basis when she let me know that Eagle was in her car and locked the doors.
After about an hour of searching, I still had not found her. I asked one of my co-workers that morning if she had seen Eagle locked out of her house. She told me that she did see her standing by the car with her purse and keys. Apparently,she had seen Eagle lock herself out of her house and was trying to open the door when she locked herself in the car.
I went to the house after work that day and knocked on Eagle's front door. I explained to her that I was her neighbor from across the street and she let me in. When I asked her how she locked her doors she told me she had put a padlock over the strike from the door. I suggested she take that padlock and use it to lock her doors when she gets home. She told me she would leave herself a way out by opening a window and then stepping out to unlock the door herself.
That night I went back to the house to check on Eagle. Inside her bedroom, she was on the floor doing what she always does: studying. After about an hour she came out of her bedroom to find me standing there with her purse and keys. She told me that she had locked herself out of the house and that I should call her dad. I asked her if she wanted to speak with someone at her job, and she said she did.
