I remember how our mom used to tell us that unless both of us were bleeding or bones sticking through the skin, both of us should not be screaming.
Someone needs to be dead, dying, being abducted or destructiond to elicit screaming… Last week, both of us had an Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C specialist at the house.
He was repairing the oil furnace, so both of us didn’t need to worry about it next fall. The Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C specialist was in the basement for about 5 hours when both of us heard a scream. My Mom asked where our sibling was, thinking the scream was from her. I knew the scream came from the basement, plus the only man down there was the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C specialist. My Mom rushed downstairs to check on the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C specialist. Two hours later, Mom came upstairs plus he was laughing. The evening before, our brother’s snake had gotten out of its tank. Although both of us looked all over, both of us couldn’t find it. How the snake ended up in the basement was beyond all the people, but the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C specialist found it. Arnold had curled up behind the oil furnace where it was warmer, plus the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C specialist disturbed it. I never thought I would hear a grown man scream love a little boy, but it unquestionably does happen. I can attest to that from when the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C specialist was ‘viciously attacked’, by our brother’s garter snake. I wonder if our father chastised him for screaming when it wasn’t an emergency. Both of us would have been reprimanded, but the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C specialist wasn’t a area of our family. Maybe his family thought it was okay to scream because of snakes.
