The Glass Bottle

Everything is just sitting around outside talking to each other, when all of a sudden someone yells, “Run”.

Everyone adrenalin starts rushing throughout their veins as we all start sprinting for the apartment. Looking behind we see three of our friends trailing us and babbling on about what just happened. Apparently someone threw a glass bottle over a ledge of a hill and it almost hit someone. Who randomly throws a glass bottle anyway? We all bolt into the hostess apartment room and gaze out the window at the man who one of my bonehead friends almost hit. The man was stalking the area looking for the person who threw almost shattered a piece of glass over his head. In the midst of all this one of our friends was still outside text as the man walked by and he started asking him questions. Being question our friend just started walking a different direction and didn’t say anything. When the man ventured off to where he came from, we immediately went back outside like nothing ever happened. This minor mishap didn’t turn out with any consequence, but there could have been many.
