New house

Arunangshu Babu spent half of his life in a shab

by old type building in a dampen dingy narrow lane. After a long struggling when he got rid of financial crisis he got a golden chance to purchase a newly constructed building from a unknown gentleman.

One Saturday he shifted to his new flat along with his family and belongings.

All the day a tremendous hectic has gone on with all of them. They were very tired and hungry as well. Arunangshu’s eighteen years old only daughter Keya has sunken in deep sleep out of hunger and fatigue. Just that moment a ghoogni and dosa vendor was passing that way. The hungry Arunangshu called the vendor and bought enough much tiffin for the whole family.

The vendor asked Arunangshu whether the family was new in that building. When he got a positive answer he commented only one remark that the building was not so blessed. Arunangshu and his wife didn’t pay heed to that remark.

They called Keya and fourteen years old son Keshav to serve the palatable food and the couple also did have that dish to their content.After having taken tiffin Arunangshu Babu wished a cup of hot tea. At once Keya got ready to prepare it.

When Keya was preparing tea Keshav came there and gave a shirt to Keya to request her to tack three buttons in it. Keya agreed to it. After having tea Keya stitched three buttons on her brother’s shirt. Then she called brother to take the shirt return and Keshav also took it back.

Fifteen minutes after it when Keshav again came and asked her sister for his shirt Keya got surprised that she has already returned the shirt but her parents claimed that Keshav was sleeping so long.

After it Arunangshu enquired about the pre history of the building and came to know that the former owner of the building lost his son of early teen age before selling the house.
