"...Someone broke into the house"

Last night, I was working later than usual. My dad texted me if I wanted to join them for dinner, I passed as I don't think I could make it on time. I've decided to ask my dad if he could do a take away for me instead. Which he did.

I came home, being hungry, my dad asked me if I took his netbook to work. "No, why would I want your old netbook? I would have taken mine", I replied.

"My netbook is missing. I think someone broke into the house.", My dad said next. "WHAAATTT???", I was surprised. I literally raised my voice. So I told dad to calm down and ask my brothers if they had came over. Which in result, none of them stopped by.

Feeling suspicious, we checked the whole house if anything else is missing. It was really strange to deduce that it was break in since all the gates, grills and windows remained locked from inside. My brother's room were closed that's why the whole suspicion if my brother came back home today. Then we saw a foot print above my brother's room door. That's when we knew the thief came in from the attic.

We didn't know what time it happened but for sure he didn't complete what he intended to do. Later on we saw a package outside at the car porch, wrapped with my dad's tshirt.

After poking it and judging from the form of the package, we concluded it's my dad's shoes. We waited for police to came over before we open it.

Indeed it was my dad's shoes. But no sign of my dad's netbook in there. He must have taken the small items and escaped from the attic. Police checked the house - not really thoroughly - then they left. Then my dad only discovered that his digital camera was also missing. Then I noticed my old smartphone also has disappeared. Possibly some other miscellaneous items that we have overlooked was also taken from the theft.

The valuables missing wasn't much but it makes us feels as though the house is vulnerable and kept us on high alert from now. Good thing none of us is harmed.

You guys out there becareful too!
