Repent? Should i?

Had to stay in a lodge at Bangalore for a day on Sunday. While checking out on Monday, I do a shallow check of my belongings but unfortunately, the wireless card of my laptop is missing from its box, but I do I remember putting it there, the night before.

Filled with panic, I begin to unpack my belongings for making a thorough search. I search on and on……but the card is still missing. Then I check the card slot…………. not found.

Thinking for a while, I recall handing over my laptop to the lodge manager for an hour since I had to go out and couldn’t carry.
Immediately, I go to the lodge manager and tell him about the missing episode, but he gives me a cool and casual answer “We don’t know. You must have misplaced it somewhere Mam”. His attitude was such that, it would make every cool person’s spine boil. Filled with anger, I shout at the manager guy. He shouts back and there is a heated exchange of words.
Finally, while pushing out, I threaten him saying this incident would be the headlines in the next days paper. But he was still not budging. What guts?

My bad luck I thought and headed back home. Somehow, somewhere I had a strong urge at the back of my mind to check into the slot once again. Assuming it to be just another thought, I skipped it.
Few hours later I check my comp, and to my amazement card’s found in its slot. The only thing was its antenna had gone missing, that earlier checking went unnoticed.

As soon as I had the card in my hands, the first thing I thought was the innocent cottage guy, who had to bear with my wrath for no fault of his.
Thoughts that were running in my mind by then were – Should I call the cottage and apologise for my misbehaviour? But this ofcourse would give them an opportunity for repaying me back with all that I have told them along with interest. With all kinds of calculations I decided to keep quiet..

But at that moment what I did was right. Wasn’t i?

Or should I repent for my behaviour?

What would have been your possible reactions, had you been in my shoes?
