For all readers information, the person here is not me. These are some of the stories I know. Enjoy. =)
As we all hate it. Most units have Officer Commanding (OC) who thinks their sergeant are Supermans. Having done a very garang DS's duty the night before, they expect you to start work immediately after returning arms even though we are entitled to 4 hours rest.
As there is not much of a choice, i request and highlighted to him that i would KIV my rest to afternoon (which i planned it nicely that i rest, then wake up can go back home), and surprisingly he agreed.
Time really flies real fast when are focused on finishing something. Soon it was already past lunch time and having delegated my work. I hastily make my way to my well deserved rest. Our bunk, an old barrack that was once belonged to the Old 3rd Guards, was usually hot in the afternoon, but having only me sleeping, I have the whole bed space below the fan to myself. After having a nice chilling bath, I immediately closed my eyes and fall asleep.
But, somehow deep in my sleep, whenever I was about to fall into deep sleep. Someone (or something) will start to flick my ear, as though I thought was my buddy playing a trick on me. And a few times, I opened my eyes to look around for the culprit, but was in vain. Still thinking that it was one of my camp mate playing a trick on me. I decided to fake my sleep but as I waited and due to my tiredness, I tend to fall asleep again. And it happened again without fail, disturbing me just when I was about to fall into deep sleep.
This time, I decided to open my eyes first before thinking who could it be. I open my eyes before my brain could send the relayed signal to do so.
To my horror, there was no one around, but my ears still feel the flickering...at that moment, the hair on both my arms all stood, and goosebumps appear all over my body, sensing something wasn't right. I darted out of the barrack and ran as fast as i could. As the back of the admin area was facing the barracks and was a smoking area as well. I stood there and stared with mixed feelings of fear and astonishment.
After a few sticks of smoke, my logical explanation of a camp mate culprit never appeared from the barracks.
