I thought i was only scared of ghosts but now i realised that what scares me more than pearly white semi-transparent, hoarse-voiced ghosts is live people! And moreover, if that person is a thief by profession!
Robbery, theft at night...all these were just some daily chatpata news till now as the place i used to live at never had to face these kind of situations. But now moving over to my aunt's place this 'chatpata' things gave a whole new dimension!
My aunt's house is a two-level banglow type one. The ground floor is not at all furnished-just a cluster of plaster, cement and bricks for walls-thats all-just a hollow cavity type and we (my aunt and I) stay on the 1st floor! There is a wall on the eastern side on the ground floor which is just made of bricks (attached by cement duh!)!
Last night, a thief cleverly(that's their job i guess) loosened the cement and removed those bricks at night and entered the house!!! But thankfully we have a gate in the 1st floor entrance so he couldn't even make an attempt to steal and he went out of the house using our garden backdoor!!!
But that adds a bigger worry! Although we have sealed the wall again temporarily until we can cement and plaster it real good, the thief may try again tonight!!!!
Sleep has gone to Davy Jones!!
Precautions taken-->
1)eXtra set of locks added to the house!
2)Armed ourselves with a weapon-in my case a kiddy 2 ft long cricket bat!
3)Planned to make a little loud coughing noise everytime we wake up at night to make any eavesdropper think that we are not that deep into sleep!
But i guess none of them are gonna be that effective! And i am real scared!!!!
:(

I'll never thiink robbery stories are chatpata from now on!
