A special event in my life during my childhood was Anidolfitha celebration at my father’s place. We were having a huge gathering over there with our friends, families, cousins and neighbors. After the lunch, me, my mother and my sister, we came back to our home around 3-4 in the evening. We bought me and my sister, we had a shower and we went to play outside and that was a hide and seek play. It was my turn to hide somewhere so I chose to hide near my neighborhood house and she was the one counting. After counting, she was searching me but she couldn’t find. She was calling for me screaming where am I hiding that she don’t know. Suddenly she got an intuition that I may be hiding in that neighborhood and that particular place was a nightmare for us, our childhood nightmare. As that person who was residing there is an alcoholic and he is always quarreling with each other with his family so we were frightened to see him. My sister climbed a wall to see what is happening to me. She had unfortunately fell down from the wall. We took her to the hospital immediately. Unfortunately she had fractured for her right arm. She had underwent a surgery for that. Still now I am remembering that with severe fear because at that time there were no one at our home to help us. My father was abroad, me and my mom what to do, where to seek help. Everything in our mind was totally blank.
