A Boring story

Aftermath

After the mobile was lost, everyone in the family, even those who weren't very close to us, started to be cautious around me. It was as if I had a banner on me saying, "Beware the legendary mobile thief." My cousin brothers teased me relentlessly for more than a year, and at one point, I yelled at them, desperately pleading for them to believe me.This incident became a part of me, and I started to adapt to the teasing. However, deep down, I hoped that at least one person, just one, would believe me. Even though everyone had known me for so long, it seemed like no one truly knew me. Doubt filled their minds, wondering what I would do next.This incident made me realize something. It led to my second law of life: "The amount of glory and fame is equal to three times the number of accusations and humiliations you face" - Kapil's second law of life. I know these laws are not exact, but they hold some truth.Eventually, everything changed, and one day, someone mentioned, "Maybe ask Kapil; he might have taken it by mistake." Suddenly, everyone at home responded, "No way, we believe he wouldn't do something like that." You can't imagine how much I had been waiting for someone to say that. Though it might not be three times the glory, it meant so much to me. However, it's too much to tell in just one chapter, so let's take it nice and slow.I want to share a little something with you all. You may have experienced or witnessed situations like this before, and I suggest one thing: know the whole story and understand every perspective before drawing conclusions. Please don't have a soft corner for just one person. I won't tell you to believe every person you encounter, but at least consider the possibility that they might be correct. Accuse someone only if you have solid proof of their mistake. Once you write accusations on a person's character, it's difficult to erase them when you realize you were wrong. Don't blame others for your own mistakes, and don't sacrifice yourself for others. It's not heroic; instead, you're enabling that person to make more mistakes, even if they are a good person.Now, back to the puzzle. I have a few people in mind who might have taken the phone and blamed me, but it's just a hunch. I'm not sure, so I'll give you the options. Let's see what you can find:1. The girl herself2. The girl's mother3. Someone else at the function4. You took it, no doubt 😑 (highly unrecommended 🤥)5. The phone has a ghost in it, and it moved on its own6. It was never stolen. It was lost.
