The NAiL! (I)

Are there days you have felt insignificant, like your whole existence can be summed up in a one word, Dull?

In comparison to your mates, your colleagues, your juniors, your friends, even haters, it's like your world is just stagnant.

Let me tell you a story...

So,there was this nail, it was used to support the wire of a wall fan, it was nothing fancy, just a normal nail.

Not too far from it, were similar looking nails, they were used to hold the rods of these beautiful curtains. These nails were nothing fancy too, but because of what they supported, they were called the "Grand nails".

Everyone who entered the room was mesmerized by the curtains and always praised its beauty and this made the grand nails the talk of the town amongst "nails".

Close to these grand nails, were nails used to hold the wooden hanger, used to hold clothes, these were called the Artisan's nails.
They were not as great as the "Grand nails" but they were also proud in their own arena.

Everyday, our ordinary looking nail would always wonder, why it was made to hold wire, ordinary wire of an old looking, creaking wall fan, until this fateful day...

"I needed to use the toilet urgently, so my sister and I entered the room, while I used the toilet, she was browsing on her phone, lying close to that old, creaking wall fan.
When it was time for us to leave, it became a problem.

Flashback:
In a hurry to use the toilet, and ensure our safety, we locked the gate of the house and left the key at the mouth of the gate.
As we entered the room, we left the key at the keyhole of the door and closed it because of mosquitoes.

Remember, we forgot the key at the door outside.
You see, that door had issues, you could only use the key to open it from the inside, this automatically meant we were stuck inside.
That would not have been a problem, but you see, the main gate was locked and the key was still at the mouth of the gate.

Tip: When a key is left at the keyhole of a door, another key can not open that door at the same time, you can try it.

So, this meant, we were stuck twice, nobody could help us from the outside and we were stuck on the inside.
Oh, we would have passed the windows but they were burglar proof..."

Look out for The Nail(II)...
