My house got broken into!

Sharks! It was a nightmare. Happened on Monday dawn 5am. All of us were in deep slumber. I was awakened by the maid's eerie cries. When I came out, my mom was standing beside her. My maid's hands were tied up and a cloth was wrapped around her neck. I thought she was being possessed by ghost! Her voice was shaking and said "Ada orang", "ada orang"... We immediately opened the door and saw the grille door was still locked intact.

I told her she had a bad dream, she insisted, said there's someone in there. We looked around and saw there wasn't anyone in her room or the study. When we switched on the lights to prove to her there wasn't anyone around, only I realised our wallet and purse and my handbags were spread on the study table and holy shit! it was true! We were burglared!

Damn freaking scared, I realised this bugger even went to our room while we were asleep and took my jewellery box to the study to find his loot. Co-incidentally, he striked jackpot with all our foreign cash unlocked and took away my pathetic tiny collection of gold stuffs.

When questioned, my maid, who was still shaking from her trauma, told us that the thief wrapped her head with a blanket while she was still asleep in her room, and tied her mouth and hands and feet. Only later, when she realised he was gone, she came out from her room looking like a ghost with a blanket covering her.

Police came and went, I looked around and realised he had left a dirty t-shirt behind. I figured out he came in through the window by daringly climbing out from the outside corridor via the compressor. He had left a trail of dirt stains on the wall and had changed into one of our clean t-shirt before he went off.

What I couldn't understand was that how he seem to know where we kept our cash and valuables and why he had just tied up the maid and rest of us untouched. It's only natural that I have a suspicious mind over the maid. If my suspicion is proven true, then gosh, she should be the oscar bast actress award winner for this year! By far, all of us are perhaps 80% convinced she's innocent, but the doubt leaves me feeling uncomfortably unsafe when she's around.

Last night, I couldn't sleep the whole night through. I was trembling and shaking hard of coldness even under the blanket up till my neck. Damn freaked out I am when I think about a total unwanted, unwelcomed stranger right in my bedroom while I was asleep, I am unsure when I can get over this and get on with life as usual. I only hope before that, my hubby won't leave me to deal with the ordeal by going on business trip so soon.

By the way, that buggler also took both my cheap handphones away too, so I lost all the contact numbers. Please sms or call for me to save back your contact, I have no idea what your number is. And don't be offended if I ask who you are when you call.
