Myself and Sonia had few words thrown at each other as to why she would have to carry an extra set of keys with her even though we knew that I was carrying a set anyway. Well there is goes ! The need of having someone as a backup was well understood.
Both of us went out (with Sonia expecting me to have a set of keys, while she left it back home as she did not have pockets to carry) and Sonia asked me to give me my keys to have the second lock up. I was without my keys and we had a day on. We are out with door locked behind us with the first lock and there is no key with us out in the cold. I had to send Sonia back to the Biplob Bhai's house since it was not very comfortable outside. I went up to the Co-op, asking ways out. The man from the Co-op told us it was better to ask the University Students' Union about this since it is not very wise to break the glasses. It might end up with too high a fine to pay. However, Students' Union advised me to contact Security, Security asked me to contact Control Room and Control Room asked me to contact LockSmith. And LockSmith asked for a 2 hour time ! How boring !
I was worried and I had to find ways. Next to our door is "The Gate Pub". I entered the pub for the very first time, asked the till lady for the backdoor of the pub, which is connected to our backdoor. I found a tool from them which is good to give me a height from where I can jump down to my backyard. I entered the backyard but had no clue about how little damage could help me out of this. I had to bang the door more than half an hour but carefully so that I could make a way. I also made few attempts of getting through the kitchen, but failed to do so. Thanks God ! The day was saved. Locksmith was phoned to sit back home and take rest.
The lesson is : "Believe in Redundancy, Because you'd never know when you are DOWN and FORGOTTEN".
