An unfortunate event.....

It was in the dead of the night......
The shrill sound of an alarm could be heard......
Little by little i gained consciousness, until i was fully awakened. The irritating alarm continued, my pale hand glowed in the surrounding darkness as it groped aimlessly on the book shelf for the offending Mobile phone. My fingers grasped an oval and flipped it open, the light emanated outwards filling the room with an eerie blue glow. Squinting at the source of the light i realised it was 4.30. I managed to drag myself out of the the warm, cosy bed and reached for my light switch. The instant light stung my eyeballs as i struggled to get my feet into my slippers. I opened the door and stumbled into the dark abyss that was the hall way, to my immediate right was a door..........

And thus the story ends abruptly as it is sometime during entering the bathroom to do my ablutions, praying my pre-dawn prayer and stumbling back into the warm folds of my bed that an unfortunate event occurs which i have no recollection of.....

A twinge of pain was felt in my left ankle several times during my sleep after praying, but i paid no heed to it....

It was in the morning light (OK maybe it was noon) that the unfortunate event surfaced...... i stepped out of bed and as i stood up, placing my left ankle forward, an intense pain spread across my ankle. A further inspection of the wounded area mysteriously yielded no results, as no sign of damage was to be found....

The rest of the day passed feebly hobbling around the house/garden (we had a barbecue). As the day progressed, the affected area swelled up and an odd bruise could be seen forming on the ankle bone(?).......

What could this oddity be? how did it happen? Should i go to the doctors?

find out next week on an unfortunate event (cue theme song......:)
