Thief of My Mother Gold Earrings

Summer, & over to it a summer in India in my city I still remember. Those good days! Now I live in Spain from last 20 years & visited my city only 1-2 times in August month. In April, yes, I travelled when my father was ill & it was our responsibility to take care of him. Now he is not more. He left us at an age of 86 & we never thought that he will left us so early. 

Moreover, I still have an imprint on my brain of those days of summer. Now I am adult person but those memories are from my childhood period. Exactly I don't remember what would be my age when this shocking event occurred in my house 🏠🏡. 

At those time we were living 6 peoples in our 🏠🏡 house and my uncle & auntie (Bare papa & Bari mummy in Hindi) were living in neighbouring house 🏠🏡. Almost both houses were same except one small wall was between two houses & we could jump over the wall very easily to reach one to other house 🏠🏡. Now only the wall constructed to sperate roofs are still there but rest of the walls are disappeared. My uncle and auntie are also no more. But I remember very well that in summer season we were not sleeping inside the house. We slept sometimes on the roof together. Each one carried own mattress and on the roof we usually made a big bed keeping all together. But before doing it we washed the roof with tap water. We used many liters of water each day for lowering the roof temperature. Because, in summer, the temperature 🌡️ of roof was horrible, & now it is more horrible due to climate change. Moreover, after feeling that now the roof & environment became cool, we put our mattress together to make a big bed below the open dark sky with blinking stars 🤩.  After dinner all of us slept together on our big bed watching the stars & feeling the fresh air of our two Neem Trees 🌴🎄. Because temperature became down at night & mostly wind started to blow. A very good & best environment to sleep. One of our two tenants was having radio and mostly he put his radio on on the roof for hearing BBC news & music 🎵🎶. It was overall the best environment to 😴💤 sleep.

But, sometimes, we slept in premises (Aangan in Hindi) of our house under the Neem 🎄🌴 tree. The procedure was same. We cleaned the floor of premises with many liters of tap water 🌊💦, then each one took out own bed (Charpai in Hindi) & mattress and slept on own bed. Since there were two big Neem trees in premises, there we were able to watch sky & stars only partially. Moreover, environment was good to have a deep sleep 💤😴. 

One morning my mother did not find her earrings which were made up of 🪙🥇 gold. She checked every space of her bed & mattress, but her earrings were completely disappeared. Sometimes they disappeared but she always found them somewhere inside her bed or mattress. But they completely disappeared this time. She also remembered that she felt a jerk at night on her ears but she avoided this jerk thinking that it was due to dream or a sleeping position in bed that became uncomfortable 😣. She also remembered that she felt someone was walking & she avoided it thinking that any family member was going to bathroom. It usually happens at night. I live in a flat in a big city in Spain but sometimes I felt that a ghost is in my flat at night. The question always come in my mind: are there souls of previous owners of this flat who passed away few months & they come to have a visit of the flat. This is a creziness but we are human. We should not have to forget it. 

After few hours of investigation, my parents were sure that some one entered in our house at night from backside of our house. The thief or thieves, because we did not know their numbers, climbed on the walls of our neighbors, then he jumped inside our house 🏠🏡. On back side, one side there was a big area where one of our neighbors grew the plants & vegetables for own consumption & another side there was a house 🏠🏡 of our second neighbor. As we slept at roof in summer, they also were sleeping 😴💤 on the roof of their 🏠🏡 house. 

Therefore, it was expected that the thief entered from the side where the vegetables 🥒🍆 were planted. At last, after all of our private investigations, my father did a visit of a police station of our locality & laudged a complaint of robbery in our 🏠🏡 house (FIR in police station). After 2-3, the inspector of our local police station, which is located at 15 minutes walking distance from house, came to our house and did inspection of suspected route of entry of thief. He spent 30-60 minutes in our house for inspection. After that what had happened with my father's complaint, I didn't know & still I don't know. I may have to ask my mother. Yes, I know very well that there was no recovery. My mother lost her gold made costly earnings.
