Who was in the house?
I was in my uncle's house that time, with my uncle, aunt and cousins. It was many years back. We were kids back then. I remember the incident very vividly.
My aunt is a very strong woman. It's not easy to scare her. One day, while she was cooking, she heard my uncle's voice from the next room. She was confused if she heard right, because uncle was supposed to be in his office. Him being at the house at this period of time wasn't expected. She thought maybe it was her mistake. She continued to cook, while we played in the garden. All of a sudden, she heard my uncle call her out, "Aparna! A cup of tea!' She was shocked. She wasn't wrong that he was home, so she thought. She said, "Yes, I'm coming." And started preparing a cup of tea for him. After 10 minutes, she took the cup of tea and went to the room. When she entered, there was no one. She thought he was in the washroom. She kept the cup on a centre table in the room and went to check the main door. She saw it was locked from inside. There was no one in the house except her, who could open the door. Or maybe the children did, she thought....
