1.7.05 Friday [my secret]

I got back to my apartment around 10:30. Fortunately Ben and Aaron were facing away from the window, watching TV. They’ve been talking for the last couple of days about how parkour was going to be on CSI. I guess they didn’t like it, because afterwards they started arguing about it. I don’t know what they were arguing about, exactly, since they seemed to be on the same side of the issue, but whatever. They’re weird like that.

I managed to slip in through our kitchen window, and from there I crept over to my room, where I unpacked and changed. I didn’t notice it before, but apparently some broken glass got into my shirt, because I had all these scrapes and cuts across my chest. But that was a small price, I’d say. I can’t determine the worth for a certainty, but I think I got at lest several thousand worth of jewelry (they always put it on their dresser!).

As I showered I realized that the cuts were a lot worse that I’d first thought, as they wouldn’t stop bleeding. The bathwater ran pink for some time. I even spotted a few red droplets on the tile, so I was careful in wiping it all up. Apparently I missed some of it.
Later Aaron asked me about it, so I made up some crap story about scraping my leg at work. I’m not sure if he bought it, but so long as I keep the goods out of his sight, he has no reason not to.
