I though my teacher, ajaan Danai was trying to scare us when he told us about the giant lizards. Creamy white in color and approximately the size of a house cat, he told a story about a friend (of a relative) who was attacked on the toilet after her husband had tried to flush one down. She promptly bleed to death.
I reassured my fellow nak sik saw (college students) that this was only a myth.
Later that night I got up to go to the bathroom, I flipped the light switch and the lights flickered -like notorious scenes in slasher films when the killer appears out of nowhere. The lights always do this. I walked up to the urinal (located in the shower). I bumped the low cieling wiith my head, and as I did I dislodged a white streak of lizard flesh. The lizard ran so fast all I saw was its tail as it disappeared behind the urinal...
They move too fast, you never see them...
Today I decided not to turn the outside lights on as a walked barefoot down the side of the house towards where the laundry area is. What's the worst that could happen in the dark? I rounded the corner. I heard it before I saw it. It paused in silent confidence, warning me of its existence, before disappearing onto the roof. A creamy white llizard the size of my head.
Ajaan Danai also warned us about snakes...
