Mary,
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't laugh at someone else's distress but this was hysterical. I was expecting that you had parked on the roof after all - and was NOT expecting THIS. MAN - you should have saved this for a contest, you silly goof! It would have won hands down!!

Thank you Robyn. When my husband reminded me of the story, I thought I would put it in print. We laugh about it now.
I appreciate your review.

Comment from Bill Schott
This story, The Garage, had me wondering how this mystery would end. I would never have guessed the wrong garage. Oh the suffering AND residual long-term kidding that must still be available for reference.

Comment from Seshadri_Sreenivasan
Beautiful narration which takes the reader to follow wherever you go. I could mentally visualize the scene. Nice start, gradual build-up and a surprise end. Well done. This happens to all of us at some time or the other. Another example of Murphy's law in force here. Which is 'anything that can go wrong will go wrong.' I have dealt with it in my two stories on Murphy's law. Thanks for sharing. much enjoyed.

Comment from Jesse James Doty
Wow. I did not expect it to end the way it did. You got me hooked from the minute I began this journey searching for your car. I expected it to be between two larger trucks or something on that order but, the ending took me completely by surprise. What a mistake to make! And what a relief to finally find your car, albeit in another garage down the street.
This story was suspenseful and entertaining to read. I was captivated by your narrator.
Thank you for sharing this suspenseful story.
Have a lovely upcoming week!
Jesse

Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
Hilarious! Not at the time, certainly. Masterful buildup to the stunning ending. This would surely have won a prize--many will be relieved it's not an entry in their contest. Delightful story, brilliantly rendered.

Comment from tfawcus
This is the kind of story you only laugh about in retrospect! Your description of your growing frustration and deteriorating humour is graphic. Clearly a first-hand account!
My brother did something similar once when he was a county court judge. Not such a thorough search as yours though. Finding his car missing, he reported it stolen. The local police found it on the floor below., much to his embarrassment!

Thank you Tony, I appreciate your kind words and review. Yes, we laugh about it now, if fact, it was my husband's reminding me of the story that I decided to write about it.

Comment from Iza Deleanu
Ha, ha, ha funny ending but I understand your pain too:"He was persistent that I get on my feet and up the stairs to check the roof parking. So, with wobbly legs, I took the added steps to the roof.
Our car search was over.
From the rooftop, I could see there was another garage down the street, where our car was on the third floor, waiting for us to claim it" Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

Ha that's funny. Heat can affect our minds though. Losing a car is very frustrating so I'm glad you managed to find it again. Thanks for sharing this and have a great day
