There was a storm brewing outside and I was alone at home as all the members of my family had fine to another city to attend a marriage function. However, I was not scared, as this was not the first time I had been alone. Soon, the storm became more and more furious. There were loud claps of thunder and bright flashes of lighting, and after sometime, the rain started pouring. Amidst all this, the fights went out. Now, I became quite scared. I started walking towards the study table where I knew, a torch was kept Suddenly, my hands touched something soft. What was it ? I screamed out in horror and that thing disappeared in a flash. I was dead scared. Still gathering my guts, I continued. I again started searchincg for e torch. Finally, I found the torch and switched it on. I was quite relieved to see that what I ha touched was just the neighbour’ 5 cat Tabb , who had come inside my room to take shelter from the rain. Just then, the lights were on and in that light, the light of my brain also brightened. I laughed at myself, thinking, how silly my fears were. I decided not to tell anyone about this incident, as I knew they would all laugh at me.
