My Life Flashed Before My Eyes
Some family friends came over with their crew of four young kids, all between 6-12 years old. All the kids usually went outside to play hide and seek. We lived on a farm with five outbuildings on about 6-7 acres.
My dad instructs us not to go in one small shed as he had geese eggs in there, that were in incubation and had to stay warm.
The game starts and I make a beeline for the shed, as I know no players would dare to go in the shed as my dad had a terrible temper.
The incubator is glowing with its bright light and I unplug it, thinking 5-10 minutes would be okay. When I go to plug it back in, I realize I had actually pulled the cord out of the plug part.
My life flashed before me, knowing I was going to get the belt in front of everyone there, I dropped the cord, snuck out of the shed, and hid at the back of the house, lying on the ground.
Ultimately, my dad accuses the second youngest of the visiting family and holds a grudge for the rest of the time. Story credit: Reddit / Kzkaynoh58
