operation de cock
…roach….yes yes. cockroach. 
this isn’t the one i gruesomely murdered. but it certain looked just the same as this one. just that it was in the upside-down orientation when it suffered a seemingly heavy blow to its head which led to its ‘fall from height’ and ‘paralysis’. two further blows sent it straight to heaven.
imagine this. u wake up sleeping with the lights on again. face down because you were supposed to have been reading an article on bed. u edge yourself out of that “predicament”, throw your arms at the blinds, ramaging for the strings to draw them shut.
then tada! it’s right there staring back at you. hmm by the way, i’m sinfully horrified by the simple presence of cockroaches. i’m even having problems spelling the word out and i think i’m having post traumatic syndromes…
so u plan your murder. starting right from the murder weapon –> my black and white slipper which i wrap over with a volume of SHaddup (sheares hall magazine). not because SHaddup deserves that fate, but just simply because i was soo damn scared and it was the only thing thick enough to provide a good protection for my slipper yet strong enough to delivery a fatal blow. then, u start shifting everything on the table. pulling ALL your stuffs to one side, clearing floor space to plan your escape route if IT should fall on the floor and start scrambling about, or worse still, decide to take flight (or in simple terms, fly). u mini-plan your approach route. but that’s all fake coz when u’re the one doing the real thing, u just W-A-C-K!!!
the above planned scenarios don’t happen. the cockroach (difficulty in spelling it out again.) just thuds to the ground. but u noe no matter wat happens, your escape route plan goes on as usual. u literally fly to the bed, something that elevates you from ground lvl.
anyway, after the murder, u decide u have to get rid of evidence. nope, u did not pick up the roach using a tissue. but yes, u scooped it up using SHaddup. fish out the smallest plastic bag you can get and slide the roach into it. throw it into the dustbin with everything else you deem dirty and throwable. and u’re done. i mean…i’m done. 
happy to have been brave (or perhaps it’s just me..;) ) afterall, it’s the first roach that died becoz of me. i have just been added onto the murder list. so all cockroaches, beware. *victory sign*
*P.S.: i did think of using an insect repellant. but i reckon that would take too long, and the roach might disappear beyond sight if i had left my room in search for one.
