Have you ever played a prank on someone and it didn’t quite go as planned? Well, this story might just top them all! Picture this: a little girl named Emily decides to play a prank on her parents with some unexpected consequences.
One day, Emily’s father received a mysterious call. On the other end of the line, Emily’s sweet voice said, “No daddy. She is upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Paul.” Confused, her father replied, “But honey, you don’t have an Uncle Paul.” Emily insisted, “Oh yes, mommy says I do and he is upstairs with mommy in the bedroom right now.”
Concerned about what was happening, Emily’s father quickly came up with an idea. He told Emily, “Okay, then this is what I want you to do. Put the phone down on the table, run upstairs, knock on the bedroom door, and scream that daddy’s car just pulled into the driveway.” Eager to carry out her father’s plan, Emily exclaimed, “Okay daddy, just a minute.”
A few minutes later, Emily returned to the phone, breathless and filled with excitement. Her father asked, “And what happened, honey?” With a hint of mischief in her voice, Emily replied, “Well, mommy got all scared, jumped out of the bed with no clothes on, and ran around screaming. She tripped over the rug, hit her head on the dresser, and now she isn’t moving at all.” Her father’s shock was evident as he exclaimed, “Oh my God! And what happened to your Uncle Paul?”
Hesitating for a moment, Emily finally revealed, “He jumped out of the bed with no clothes on too. He was all scared and he jumped out of the back window and into the swimming pool. But I guess he didn’t know that you took out the water last week and cleaned it. He hit the bottom of the pool, and I think he is dead.” Silence filled the air until the father finally spoke, “Swimming pool?… Is this 486-5731?”
Poor Emily! Her innocent prank took an unexpected turn with disastrous consequences. Sometimes, what we planned doesn’t always go the way we want it to. Let this be a gentle reminder for all of us to be careful when playing pranks, especially when they involve phone calls and swimming pools!
So, the next time you think about playing a prank, remember Emily’s story and think twice. It’s always best to ensure everyone’s safety and have a good laugh in a harmless way.
