The Misadventures of an Anti-social Shut In

The misadventures of Alex an anti-social shut in, who stays locked inside his room all day.

BAM! BAM! BAM! Goes the door. BAM! BAM! BAM! Goes the door again.

“Alex! Aren’t you going to get out of your bed?!” The angry voice from outside the room paused for a sec, then continued “It’s already 12:30 in the afternoon!  Get off that bed, get out and make some friends for Christ’s sake!”

Alex looked at his wall clock, conveniently placed adjacent to his bed. The short arm was pointing at the number 12, and the long arm was pointing in between the 26^th and the 27^th establishing small bars. It was indeed almost 12:30 in the afternoon.

The voice from outside, again, persistently making Alex come out of his man cave, “Alex aren’t you coming out?”

Alex cleared his throat and took a deep breath, and said…

“NO!”

Great story, sounds all too familiar. Short and sweet, for what else is there to say about an anti-social shut in? No means no.
