Coming home early after a short trip, a work day, or a long time, are meant to be a breath of fresh air. What you don’t expect is for the air to be knocked out of you when you see what awaits you behind your door. The people in this article experienced just that. From unexpected ’guests’ to questionable situations — they were quite surprised, and some of them, in the best way possible.
My boyfriend came home early and caught me off guard. He had left for work as usual, but barely half an hour later, he returned after remembering the rent check. When he walked in, he saw me finishing off a 2-litre soda, straight from the bottle, queso dripping down my shirt; and just giving strong goblin energy. Definitely not the version of me he’s seen before. To top it off, the male voice he heard on the other side of the door was of a YouTube video.
Today I came home early from work to surprise my wife…. who was surprising me. I walked in quietly, and I saw her in the kitchen, with flour and cake mix on her forehead and tapestries, birthday cups, flowers, and gifts around the table. She was making a cake, for a surprise party. My surprise birthday.
My mouth dropped and I quietly walked backwards to the door, exiting quietly and waiting till 7:30 to come back home. My wife would be so sad, and she was working so hard. So, within a time frame of about 3 and a half hours, I practiced my “oh my, I’m so surprised face”
When I came home, she yelled “Surprise!” And I did a very bad surprise face, hugged her and we had a movie marathon.
