Right now I wish that night games were a thing of the past. I remember as a kid I loved them. There was nothing better than running around with your friend in the dark streets as you played things like sardines or escape from Alcatraz. Now that I'm older though I wish they had stopped at some point so that I wouldn't have been startled by a group of young teens running around in the middle of the night.
As I walked out of my parents house this evening to drive home to my apartment off to the side of me I suddenly heard a voice whisper "hey". I could have jumped out of my skin. All I can say is that it is a good thing I am not a screamer or I would have woken up the entire neighborhood. I located the voice as coming from a young guy laying next to my brothers truck hiding from his friends. He is lucky to be alive right now. Good for him I wasn't startled enough to invoke a flight or fight reaction (though it was a close thing) because I'm pretty certain it would have been a fight response.
