When in trouble with household appliances, what do you do? Well you go and knock on your neighbors' door. I tried that. None of my neighbors are home. The heater in the lobby is emitting good amount of heat, the lobby of my apartment is warmer than my room. May be I should take my chair outside, sit there and read. But that is not a convenient option. May be I should just wait for my neighbors to return home. I must be attentive to sound, I generally hear the main door in the lobby being opened and shut. The residence caretaker can only be contacted twice a week that too for an hour, from 4 to 5 pm by phone. None of my emails written to him in English ever got reply. I do not see much help coming from that end.
Nonfunctional heater seems such a non significant trouble but the fact is it is causing me some serious worries. I know very well that I could not sleep all night just a month ago for feeling very cold. It was only in the morning I realized that my heater had given away. I am so hoping that suddenly my heater will start breathing life, the warm water will start circulating through its channels heating up the metallic body and radiating heat. A patient which has gone in cardiac arrest and is successfully defibrillated or a person who is drowning has been brought to shore, and the water from the lungs is squeezed out.. that first breath of air.. that cough.. it gives a sign that the life is saved.. a happy cough.. i need something similar to happen for my heater. But I dont know if he needs a defibrillator or just squeezing water out... whatever it may be, I just hope that he will suddenly come alive, warm up my room and also warm up my life in metaphoric ways...
Do I have some heater specialist, technicians, heater expert in this universe who can help me fix this problem?
