The One That Got Away

I lived on the 4th floor of a brick apartment building. Across the street was a zoo that had no fences or cages. Directly across the street was one of their pools that they kept seals in. As I was looking out the window I noticed a seal got out. It crossed the street, and sat below my window looking up at me like it wanted in. I said to myself 'it's a good thing you can't climb'. That's when seal started climbing the wall like spiderman. I freaked out and shut my window. In seconds it was outside the glass looking for a way to get in. I hide behind a wall watching it for a while then I realized I had to get ready because I was late for work.
