It is frustrating coming home from school every evening. The noise from my two neighbours is enough to kill me! I thought living in a private housing estate would mean more peace and quiet. However, I soon found out I was wrong. I never really liked living in a flat because it was cramped and
stuffy. My terrace house is larger, but while I have a bigger house in which to move around, I have to tolerate my neighbours and their quarrels. It all happened one day when one of my neighbours, Mr Sim (the one living to the left of my house), found his pair of shoes at the front door of old Mr Koh's house. Mr Koh lives to the right of my house. Mr Sim then accused Mr Koh of stealing his shoes. Mr Koh then told Mr Sim that he did not steal those shoes, but Mr Sim would not believe him. From that day on, the two men never stopped quarrelling. I especially hate it when they meet each other in front of my house to settle their quarrels. They got so noisy one day that I threatened to call the police should their fighting continue.
Since that time, the two men have tried to be less quarrelsome. As for me, I try not to think about how noisy they can be sometimes. |
