Well...until It Turned South, That's When Mr Danie Horn Asked Me To Borrow Him My Tempo Watch, Since

Well...until it turned south, that's when Mr Danie Horn asked me to borrow him my Tempo watch, since his was reported stolen from his bedroom by the unknowns. I borrowed it to him without hesitation, but then the tables turned around me when he decided that this very watch I just gave to him, was actually the one that was initially stolen. To my surprise I stood there dumbfounded, and hoping that this is just a joke and we will eventually laugh about it. But then my hope faded when he continued to insist, and actually got even loud about it and embarrassingly spoke to my face in front of all tenants.

At this point my heart was pumping in my head, and still in disbelief that this man in front of me is actually serious about an unsubstantiated statement like this. That's when I lost my cool, and I pushed him backwards and he fell on the bench where he sat. By now people were starting to approach and wondering what was going on, Robert the cook, came rushing and got between me and Danie. I looked at Robert, and I got even more infuriated remembering all the things that were missing from the premises, and some of which he was caught red-handed with and yet nothing was done about it.

I started punching him all over the place to a point where everybody started running to come separate us, by the time I let go of him my hand was aching and stayed like for two days. After we stopped with the fighting, by then Danie had already called the police. I went to my room to cool down for a few minutes, by now it was slowly coming back to me that cops were called, and my ass was on the line.

So, I went back outside to check the situation, and observe people's reactions, so we sat there for what was almost an hour and a half before the police can arrive. And eventually they did, they went straight to where Danie was sitting outside, and I momentarily also stood up from where I was sitting and joined the party.

Danie told them right away that he was charging me with assault, so the cops started questioning witnesses one by one, and they all confirmed that I was physical with Danie, Robert and a sudden appearance of a third victim whom I have no idea of how I got physical with him, but hey, the party got bigger than I anticipated, uninvited guests and all that.

By the time the questioning was directed towards me it was already concluded that I'm the guilty party, so it was a matter of me asking for forgiveness on the spot or try to defend myself, and I went for the latter. This was obviously not a wise move, because it made the cops agitated and they called me a smart ass, which didn't do me any favors because the next thing I know my ass was handed to me with hand cuffs and the back door of a police van was closed shut on my face. 

This happened on the 26th of July, 2024, what a mark this will on my calendar, and a grim memory of what my temper can make me do when the least expected. I have learned a great deal of knowledge on this day, that don't always try to defend yourself verbally of physically, especially where there are no physical altercations. The wise thing you can do, is to excuse your away from the party or ask for forgiveness to keep the peace, this tends to end things quicker without prolonging the argony of being emotional about things, or going the legal way if it even has to go there. After all...we are all adults, let's learn to solve our problems as such, because we at most times realize that we've grown up later into maturity.
