"Nope, she’s definitely not hiding there," Seth said as he crouched down.
But haha, dream, little brother, dream!! ‘Cause... I was there!
Stretched across the seat tops of the chairs pushed under our kitchen table, I lay in hiding as one by one, over and over again, each of my siblings came within inches of me.
We were playing hide-and-seek-in-the-dark --- my three younger brothers, my little sister, and myself. The battle-lines had been drawn, our positions staked out, and the lights turned off. It was our last round for the night, and I was "it".
I lay there in the darkness, stretched out across the chairs, my face within centimeters of the under-side of the table, the nobs and corners of the several chairs I was stretched out across jabbing harshly into my back and side. Ahah, the sacrifices of finding the ultimate hiding place! They walked by, looking, whispering, prodding in the dark, checking, and then double checking, looking, but never finding. They leaned against the chairs, the table, and they even crawled under the table next to me. Boy, was I pleased! I hide. They cannot find! What fun!
Just before they were about to give up, and right before my exultant laughter was due to burst forth... I was found. Lights were turned on, they all stood laughing at themselves, and of course my own ridiculous position suspended between floor and table. It was a slam-bang finish!
I think we’ll play again tomorrow.
