Ransacked...
I have not really taken much interest when i hear friend's or relative's being broken into until my own house was looted last night. We went to temple at 8.30pm and my bro who was attending another function came rushing to the temple at 9.30pm saying the house was broken into.
Panicked and my mum in utter shock,kept repeating that she left all her jewels unlocked in the drawer. We rushed home to find that my room window grill had been forced open with a crow bar, all the cupboards in each room ransacked and the contents strewn on the floor, my sarees, my brother's books, photographs and other items all scattered around and stepped on, my locked drawers and my parent's dressing room drawers smashed open.The whole house was in a total mess.
Luckily, my parents just deposited their saving in the bank the day before. They ran away with some cash, jewels and my handphone which i had left charging in my room.
I always thought robberies are nothing as long as no one is hurt but now i understand the post effects of it. Home is supposed to be the safest place u can trust to be in but right now, i keep thinking that some bloody strangers had actually entered my house when no one was in, ridiculed all our personal items and had walked around freely, taking things of interest to them. All the sounds in the house, even the tinest creaking which under normal circumstances would have not bothered me seems to be freaking me out now. I wouldnt even want to be alone in the house anymore.
Even so, I'm just glad that most of the cash and jewels were safe in the bank. One thing i know now, there is no use in buying jewels. You cant wear them outside, you cant keep them inside.Might as well use the money to spend on vacations and relaxation stuff rather than spreading it out for the robbers. What's the use of saving it up in the bank either? I'm also glad that the robbers had already left when my younger brother entered the house or else i can't imagine what else could have happened.
My house was robbed between 8.30 to 9.30pm. The police investigators arrived at 12.30am to take photographs. Talk about efficiency..sigh!
Anyway, for those of you who know me personally, i have lost my handphone so i would be very grateful if you could mail me your handphone numbers as i had not saved it anywhere else.I will send you my number once i have purchased a new phone at the end of this month.
