My name is Andrew and I’m 15.
This guy I hate named Scott was having a party and I went because my friend Peter was also going. I wanted Scott’s parents to find out that he had a party (they were on a business trip for a week) so that when they came back he would be in so much trouble!
So not long after I got to Scott’s house, I went in his basement. I went inside this utility closet thing and I took a hose. I opened a sliding door and hooked up the hose to the water spout thingy. I turned the wheel and water came out of the hose and I had it on full power and I aimed the hose so the water was going inside Scott’s basement! Then I closed the door (i couldn’t close it all the way cause the hose was in the way) and went back upstairs.
That happened at 5:00. Four hours later at 9:00, I went back to the basement and the entire thing was FLOODED with water! It was like a quarter of the way between the basement and the ceiling. I noticed that some of the water was going out through the crack in the door and going into other people’s yards!!
I called Scott over and I showed him all the water in the basement and he grabbed his phone and called his next-door neighbor who’s a plumber. He told Scott to open the door all the way to let the water out.
Scott did that and the carpet was SOAKED. His neighbor told him to rip the carpet off and Scott did and there was a bunch of water under it and also under the hardwood part of the floor!
So Scott went upstairs and told everyone except me to go home. He told me to put on dirty clothes and help him turn off the hose which was still going off outside. I changed and went outside with him and we tried really hard but the water was spraying out full force and we just had to leave it.
There was also some water from the hose going up toward the first floor and deck and the deck and siding was getting wet and water was starting to leak through the walls into the kitchen and living room!
Scott decided to try and call his parents with the landline phone but by then the water was going into the phone and electricity lines and when Scott was dialing their number the power totally shut off.
So Scott got out his cell phone and called his neighbor again and he was like you gotta come over and he did!
Scott’s neighbor had these scissor things and he cut the hose from the water thing and the water finally stopped but the basement and first floor were totally water damaged.
Scott called his cousin who lives in southern Pennsyvlania (we live in Maryland near the Pennsylvania border) and he told him everything and he picked up Scott and he slept over and their house.
I heard Scott and his parents have three options about their house:
-They could tear down the house and rebuild it.
-They could have it repaired with insurance money.
-Or they would have to move to another house and some home repair company would fix up the house and then put it up for sale.
I can’t believe I tried to do one simple prank and I ended up causing that much damage!! What will happen? Will I get caught and punished??
Help!
Man, thats bad.
There’s really not anything you can do but
confess, you probably will get in trouble, sorry.
But at least if you do confess tell them you sincerely did NOT
mean to ruin there house, and offer to do anything to fix it.
Sorry, but that’s probably all you can do.
Especially since you just put it on the internet where anybody can read it:(
Sorry:(
