Somebody in my Bed
My name is David Afamasaga and I am a world traveller from Long Beach, California. I currently live in Medellin, Colombia, but the story I will be telling you is about what I experienced in a town I traveled through in Peru. So I visited a beautiful beachside town named Huanchaco. It is located in Trujillo, Peru and is of Mochica origin. I stayed and worked in a wonderful hostel with a beautiful view of the beach. This is not a story about the hostel, but what I experienced there. I was volunteering there working at the bar. The volunteer dorm I was staying in was a 4 person dorm. One night while I was asleep in bed, I heard my roommate climb into his bed which was the one right above mine. Not thinking anything of it I started to go back to sleep when all of a sudden my roommate fell out of his bed and onto the floor. Concerned I looked over and asked him if he was okay. His response was "No, but I'll be fine". Still concerned and holding back my laughter, I laid back in bed and watched him climb back into his. I couldn't go back to sleep just yet, so I decided to go to the bathroom. As I was about to climb out of my bed, I looked down and right next to my bed, laying on my bags of clothes, was a young lady who was staying in our Hostel. I was shocked and confused as to how she got there, because this was not her room. I stepped over her and went to the bathroom anyway. As I came out of the bathroom my other roommate, who was sleeping in the bunk across from mine, was staring at the young lady who was sleeping on my stuff. He quietly asked me who she was, with my response being "I don't know". We decided to leave her there and not wake her up. I went back to sleep and when I woke in the morning she was gone. I asked my roommate who slept in the bed above mine if he was okay, which he replied "No, my neck hurts, but I'll be okay". I then asked him if he knew who the girl was who was sleeping on our floor. He responded "I don't know who she is. All I know is when I was sleeping in my bed, she climbed in bed with me. I got scared and turned over and when I did we both fell out of the bed." I was surprised, because neither of us really knew who she was, other than she stayed in our Hostel. Later that day I saw the young lady and asked her if she remembers anything from the night before and her response was "I was really drunk last night, I don't want to talk about it." Living in Hostels and shared housing is a wonderful experience, but it's not always the case for everyone. I have many more stories, and have heard many like my own. Some of which are a lot funnier. Please let me know if you enjoy my story and if you would like to hear more.
