“ Nobody is in the house except me and my children, I closed the door of the bedroom, trying to keep my fussy baby stay calm and finally make her sleep ..everything is silent in the room then suddenly a knock on the door. If it is a knock on the main door I may guess it’s someone but its a knock on the bedroom “
What?
Who?
Hell Who is it?
What actually happened?
Let’s see…………………………………………………………………………………………………….
The five family includes a working husband, a housewife, two children(one-year baby girl and 8-year boy ), and mother in law. We live in a three-floor building far away from the city with two or more neighbors staying at a farther distance. We recently moved in the month of December staying on the last floor. Due to the pandemic, the other residents didn’t move into the building.
Early in the morning, after waking up, I opened the main doors and didn’t unlock the grill doors. Everyday routine is being followed in the house, everyone is doing what they do.
On this day, my husband and mother-in-law planned to go to our village for important work. They started around 11 Am on their bike. I am busy with my children, my son is having lunch and my daughter completed the lunch after a long struggle. Then I got a phone call from my husband stating that they are about to reach the village in a few min, he forgot to take the spare house keys with him so he asked me to leave the keys behind if I go anywhere out. I kept my phone charged and closed the main door after completing the lunch.
As its mid-noon, my daughter started being fussy because she is sleepy, so I took my children into the room. I have locked the door as we switched on the AC. My children fall asleep after some time and I am trying to take a super nap.
All of a sudden I heard a knock and I thought its some noise outside but again I heard the knock and it is in my home. Moreover, it’s not on the main entrance door but it’s a knock on the door which I just closed i.e my bedroom. It begin with just a normal knock then a continuous banging on the door has started. I stayed blank who is the one banging on the door. I couldn’t understand the situation who is knocking on the door when there is no one except me and my children. My heartbeat raised, my hands and legs started shivering…
After a few min, I asked, “who is there?” But no one responded. I asked repeatedly but no response. I don’t have my phone to call, There is a window in the room and i tried shouting from it but no body couldn’t hear me. I went into the bathroom which is inside my room to see whether anyone can hear me from the bathroom window, but there is no use.
Suddenly sounds from outside the door have stopped. I don’t know what’s happening there, so I slowly went close to the door. After some silent pause, I heard the continuous rattling sound of the utensils, then I guessed that person is in the kitchen. With every bit of strength left and with my irregularly beating heart, I thought to open the door at that time to see who the hell is it?
Now The clanging sounds in the kitchen were stopped, I also stopped the thought of opening the door and moved back. Again the sounds started but this time its very huge thud noise on the door, I think he is trying to break the door.
Oh no !!!!!!! What should i do ????
Many thoughts are wandering around my head, couldn’t control my tears after seeing my children. I’m scared to death. The door banging didn’t stop. What will happen if i open the door or if he breaks the door ? what if that person kills me or my children?
I can’t find any way to come out, there is just a door between me and the stranger.
What shall I do?
What have I done along with two children?
