My lost keys

I went out last Saturday with my friend. After coming back slightly after 12:00pm, I simply threw my stuff on the sofa. I was carrying quite a lot. One handbag, one bag stuffed with frozen food, and one umbrella. I couldn’t remember whether I had removed the key from the door or not. After making 2 long phone calls, I fell into asleep and woken up by an sms from another friend, letting me know me know that he’s arrived and was waiting downstairs. Only until that time, I started searching for my keys, but couldn’t find them anywhere. I contacted to the security chief downstairs and he came up to investigate. My tenant went out at around 2:00pm and had not seen any keys let in the door. And so it’s possible that sometime between 12:00pm and 2:00pm someone may have taken them. Security cameras are only in the lobby and not on my level. Lunch was from 12:00pm to 1:00pm, so it would be unusual for anyone to be around at the time. After that the cleaners might. So I asked him to bring the supervisor of the cleaning company to my house. Meanwhile, he gave me some phone numbers to contact a locksmith just in case if I couldn’t find them before the day ended. I called and made an arrangement. It cost $60 only to change to cylinder inside with 3 new keys. But I still needed to settle the rest. My office key, my bedroom key, my drawer, and so on. It was quite a lot and quite expensive to settle all of them. I checked with the supervisor who told me that began work at 1:00pm in the afternoon to clean these few levels. I thought that perhaps one of the cleaners may have taken my keys and I requested that the matter be investigated. The supervisor denied my request, becoming irritable and unwilling to help. The Chief of Security volunteered to help me to search the house. Finally he found the keys underneath the cushion of the sofa. That God! That saved me a lot of trouble. That guy was all the way patient during the whole process. A nice old man! That’s the kind of security officer we need.
