A Family Drama
After attending the reception cum dinner of their closest friend's daughter, at the famous five-star hotel 'The Oberoi', Mr. Pai and his family were returning home discussing the events of the function. Mr. and Mrs. Pai along with their two children Suhani and Soham had attended the function. It was quite late at night, and to add to it, it began to rain making the surroundings dark and scary. Mr. Pai drove the car cautiously and reached their colony safely.
Mr. Pai parked the car while the others waited for him at the entrance of their building. It was still raining and the watchman was nowhere in sight. The common light in the building was not on. The way leading to their house was in darkness. Somehow they dropped their way to the second floor, where they lived. As they reached their house, Mr. Pai felt that he heard footsteps and whispering coming from inside their house. He asked his wife to listen carefully and she too agreed that there was whispering.
The conversation indicated robbers searching for valuables. There was no light in their house. Mr. Pai was an army officer. He asked his family members to stand behind him and he opened the main door very slowly. He could hear conversations and movements too. He slowly went towards the bedroom from where the conversation was coming.
The door was closed. He took out his revolver and pushed the door open quickly I only to understand that the conversation was I from the TV serial 'Crime Patrol'. He then remembered that he had been watching this serial before leaving home and had forgotten I to switch off the TV. The other family members I who had followed him gave a huge sigh of relief.

There was a roaring in the wind all night;
The rain came heavily and fell in floods;
But now the sun is rising calm and bright,
The birds are singing in the distant woods;
Over his own sweet voice the Stock-dove broods;
The Jay makes answer as the Magpie chatters;
And all the air is filled with pleasant noise of waters
All things that love the sun are out of doors;
The sky rejoices in the morning’s birth;
The grass is bright with raindrops-on the moors
The hare is running races in her mirth;
And with her feet she from the plashy earth
Raises a mist; that, glittering in the sun,
Runs with her all the way, wherever she doth run.
