It was dark , I was on my bed .It was damn cold ! my legs started shivering I draw the blanket up and covered my body till my face .I was able to feel that warm and comfort in the blanket, which, one feels while bathing with hot water in winter..Ah! I love that feeling and so I was trying to sleep. Even though,there seemed no disturbance in the house, just the silent breeze, still I couldn't sleep because that silent stillness scared my shit ..I don't know what kind of fear is this..I kept on changing my sleeping positions but wasn't able to sleep..Added to that I was feeling a strong urge to pee but I didn't wanted to get up as the floor was cold. stepping on the freezing marble, requires a lot of work, so yeah! At the same time I heard a crazy fellow shouting outside the window I felt he was drunk I even heard the sound of trembling as well as breaking of bottle..I wasn't able to sleep so I started stalking pictures on Instagram. I found Zulia online so i texted her "Someone's still awake."
But she left without looking at my message Ah! My fate..
And then the drunk man outside crossed all limits, I heard an unusual bang on the door and again breaking of glass ..I got up,rushed out of my bed
step on the chilly floor with naked feets , I looked for my slippers below my bed, but couldn't find it in the dark so I switched on the lights, in the mean time the man outside was driving insane.
I wore my sleepers ,closed curtains of my windows and ran out of the room . I saw muma was awake ,
She said "I felt u were sleeping so I didn't intended to wake you up"
quite an irony!
Muma said" let's call our neighbors"
I said "let's call the police" and at that time phone rang.
That ring of the phone shakened both of us from inside.we glanced at each other's gloomy face and then finally muma picked the phone it was Mr Rajesh our neighbor. "Hello! Mis sarah are you and meera fine..We have called the police they shall be on their way ..Said Mr Rajesh
"Yes we are fine! Mr Rajesh thanks a lot for your favour"replied my mother with a sigh of relief.

"U and meera stay in,close all the windows and door till the police arrives" said Mr Rajesh
And we did same .
I already closed the windows of my room so I rushed and went through other rooms to do the same and while doing that I bumped my foot through the leg of the chair and got the inner arc of my foot injured .At the same time I heard the siren of the police car .And that made me freak out from inside , because it was the first time such a thing happened. I went and stood beside my mother .We could hear the footsteps of police men from inside which eventually turned into sounds of scorning. And when the drunk man argued with them it turned into flogging and beating, which filled.a teror in my heart..We didn't open the door, one of the police man shouted from outside" madam u go and sleep we will take care of him"and that gave a great relief.
We looked at each other, muma hugged me ,wished me good night and sent me into my room .
She asked me if I want her to sleep in my room ..But I denied .I went to the washroom to pee and then slept.

Next morning my mother's mother called us because she got the news of what happened last night .(I don't know how) she said she's coming over to have a serious discussion😣. And I know what thats gonna be about...
