sibling prank

Chloe shares a story about how her sister pranked her in their small town. Chloe was scared to be alone, so she asked to stay in the bathroom while her sister used it. Her sister pretended there was someone in the house, scaring Chloe. When Chloe finally ran out of the bathroom, her mom and sister revealed it was just a prank. Chloe's mom suggests getting revenge by putting whipped cream outside the bathroom door, which they do. Chloe reflects that she would never do something like that now. Hi, I'm Chloe. Thank you for joining me and wanting to listen and be a part of my podcast. Now let's get into it. Have you ever been picked on by a sibling, another family member, or even just a friend? Actually, we've all experienced this at some point. Well, my story is about how my sister pranked me, but she took it to the extreme. My event took place in my old hometown, Oak Grove, Missouri. It's a pretty small town. We lived right where the city and the country met. I lived with my mom, my stepdad, and my older sister lived with us. We were 12 years apart, and at the time, I was around 8 to 9, which would have made her about 21. My sister and I had a pretty good relationship growing up, but she was the main one who took care of me, since my mom was a single mom who always had to work overtime. Growing up, I tended to be a bit nervous because I had an intense fear of being alone, which made me super clingy. My sister often got the worst of it. She got pretty tired and annoyed a bit over time. She was one of the main people who I looked up to, and I thought she was one of the coolest people I knew. One early afternoon, after going out for brunch with my mom, my sister, and my grandma at a local diner nearby, we were headed out, and my mom and my grandma decided they were wanting to take a couple stops on their way home. So I rode home with my sister. After a short drive, we made it home. My sister came inside, and she had used the restroom. And of course, I was scared. I didn't want to wait outside the bathroom for her, because that meant I would be alone. So I asked to sit in there with her, and she got upset that I kept asking. So I started begging. Sissy, I'm scared. Can I please come in here with you? Fine, she said. After a couple seconds passed, she said, Who is that? There's someone in the house. I said, What? She replied, Lock the door. I'll come in here when everything's safe. I said, Okay. I did exactly what she said. I locked the door, and I crawled into the tub, and I pulled the curtain. I was so scared. I sat there silently. I didn't hear anything. My heart racing, and my breath getting heavier and heavier. I got nervous, but I didn't hear anything outside the doors. So I got the courage to crawl out of the tub and look under the crack of the opening of the door. I saw nothing. I started to panic that something had gone terribly wrong with my sister because she hadn't came to get me. I stood up, and I started to stare in the mirror for what felt like 30 minutes. I felt the pain in my chest while coming up with a plan of how I'm going to get out of here. Several thoughts raced through my mind. I couldn't even focus on one. I finally just built up the courage to sprint out the bathroom door and run to the front door. My next move was to run to the neighbors and call the cops, but that didn't quite happen. The second I got out the door, I opened it to my mom pulling in the driveway. I screamed, There's someone in the house. I'm not sure if she's okay. My mom got extremely worried. I mean, right as my mom started rushing inside, my sister came outside. It was just a prank. I crawled right back into my mom's arms. I was so scared. I thought someone was actually in the house, and something was going to happen like in the movies. I was going to get kidnapped or murdered. I stuck to my mom's side for the rest of the day. We watched movies, and towards the end of the night, my mom had oddly mentioned we needed to get payback on my sister. That idea made me nervous. I couldn't come up with any ideas because I was just so scared of what she would do next. My mom's idea was to spread whipped cream outside the bathroom door as my sister was using it, so when she walked out, she would step in it. So that's what we did. We spread whipped cream outside the door, and that's what happened. She stepped in it. She was confused on why we did that. My mom stated it was payback for this morning, but there was no way to equal out her actions. I agreed. Looking back, I would have never have done that. Even now at 18, I would still would have never have done that to a child. Well, that is how my sister pranks me. Thank you for listening. I would love to hear your pranks you have done to someone or someone has done to you. Thank you again, and have a nice day. Thank you.
