IA.J ,AT~ ttOEE' ~A~î ~ T T TAAA~RAIGR Wbat would you do? 1 was walking along in the early evening, minding my own business, 0n tb when aIl of a sud- 1 den 1 heard a o s scream coming from abouse 1hade just passed. Tben another, and another. Ail three of the screams sounded identical, about a second apart. Tbcy were [rom a womans voice I'd say was older than 20 and younger tben 40. 1 froze oh tbe sidewalk. Wbat sbould 1 do? Sbould 1 go up to tbe door and cbeck to see if everytbing was okay? In tbe movies, tbe star wonld burst tbrougb tbe front door and save tbe day Tbis wasn't tbe movies, but I bad to, do sometbing. Perbaps I had better analyze tbe screams first. Tbey didn't sound like tbey were coming [rom somebody wbose life was in peril. I didn't tbink immediate action was warranted. If it was an intruder, 1 don't expect tbey'd bave time to get off tbree screams. Plus, 1 tbink tbey migbt bave used tbe time taken for one of tbose screams to yell -Help! " Tbey sonnded more like surprise screams. Wbat could surprise somnebody enougb to, make them scream like that? A mouse wonld do it, but why tbree screams? Tbree blind mice? A spider? I doubt it. One scream maybe. And spiders are plentiful enough that they're not usually scream-worthy, Anytbing worse in the animal kingdom 1 didn't want to tbink about. I've known several cases of people who found snakes in their bouse, but tbey were ont in tbe country And once my dad went into tbe kitchen in tbe bouse I grew up in, and tbere was a raccoon sitting on tbe table. I've personally deait witb a squirrel, a bird and two bats. 1 wouldn't be mucb belp in those situations anyway, nor did 1 want to be. Thats why 1 always bave a cat. Once as a teenager 1 saw a mouse in my bouse and screamed (just once) and stood on a chair until my parcnts came. Could it bave been a bappy scream? 1 didn't tbink so, but sbe could bave cbecked bier numbers and won tbe lottery Maybe a sbocked scream? If sbe bad kids maybe one of tbem sbaved tbeir bead and painted tbeir skin blue. N ow I was just reacbing for straws, looking for any excuse not to bave to, deal witb tbis. I looked around tbe neigb- bourbood $0 see if tbere was somebody else wbo beard tbe screaîns. Nobody It was ail np to me. Wbat to do? My scream analysis was getting me nowbere, but tben I beard anotber voice, a female voice I conîdo't quite make out, but I assumed was asking wbat was wrong. And tben incredibly, anotber scream. Okay, tbree screams, a lengtby pause and tben anotber scream - 1 was done tryong to figure tbis ont. At this point I could safely say nobodys life was in danger and I could con- tinue on my way wbicb is just wbat I did wbile looking back every once in a wbile. StilI, I was curions and as I drove by tbe bouse tbe next day I saw a woman in front putting ont bier 'spninkler. I stopped and considered asking ber wbat ail tbe screaming was about. WhVat wonld I say? Tbat I beard some screams [rom tbere and was wondering if cverytbing was okay? WeIl, if I bad beard the screams the previouts day, wby didn't 1 ask then wben 1 migbî bavc been of some ose? I kept going.
