After school
Kifayat went to the monitoring room with Saba, as Lia and Cyra already left because Lia's father came to pick her up. As Lia and Cyra lives quite close, Lia forcefully took Cyra along with her.
"Teacher, May I come in?"
"Oh~ Kifayat, you are here."
"Well, teacher I needed to check the monitoring bcz...."
"You don't have to explain. Mrs Shen Already told me about it. It's great that you guys are trying to help your classmate."
"No, teacher it should be,"
Saba who was beside Kifayat glanced at her sideways. It's a pity Kifayat is not an actor.
"You can check the monitoring but be careful. Principal sir called a little while ago. So I need to go out for a while."
"Sure teacher. No problem." Kifayat nodded very obediently. Saba also followed along.
After the teacher left, Kifayat immediately started to check the CCTV footage. She checked the time during morning period. Soon found a sneaky figure. Not exactly one but two.
"What do you think?" Saba asked Kifayat who was concentrating on the video.
"Well, one of these two are culprits or...."
"Or?"
" It can be both of them."
"I think it's the girls doing. I don't recognize the girl which means she is not from our class but the boy is from our class and the boy is quite simple minded."
"You mean stupid."
"..."
"I know the boy too. He will not play such pranks rather he is too stupid to play these pranks for one year."
"Then why do you suspect him?"
"I guess he was instigated by someone."
"Is it the girl? This girl should be from class 10C. Does she have any hatred towards you? Or May be she has a secret crush on you." Saba said her guesses.
Kifayat looked at her speechlessly. "I am a girl."
"So what? It is very common these days."
"Shut up now. Go check if the teacher is coming. " As soon as Kifayat mentioned the teacher's name, she heard the teacher's footsteps.
"Did you found it?" Mr. Sharma asked while entering the room.
"Yes, teacher. We found the person." Saba made a slip of tongue.
"Person? Aren't you looking for an lost item?"
"Well, that.... " Saba hesitatedly looked at Kifayat and saw that she was quite calm.
"Teacher, the item was not lost but it was misplaced by someone. We found the person who misplaced it."
"Oh, I understand. It's good to find."
"Teacher, we have a bus to catch. We need to go now." Before the teacher could ask anymore question, Kifayat bid farewell to the teacher.
After coming out of the room, Saba once again was amazed by Kifayat's ability to lie without even batting a eye.
"I was scared to death. I thought we would get caught,"
"What is there to be scared about. We didn't lie to the teacher though. The letter was indeed misplaced. One was on my desk and another one was on Cyra's desk."
"Yeah... " Saba suddenly remembered one of the letter was indeed on Cyra's desk. But since it was written to Kifayat, it could be considered as misplacement.
Saba gave Kifayat a thumbs up.
"By the way, what do plan to do with them? Let's interrogate them together tomorrow. I am sure they would surrender under my fist." Saba gave a devilish smile.
"Don't give such creepy smile. Besides even if we ask they can deny."
"We can show them proof if they deny."
"And what proof do we have? The CCTV footage didn't show us that they are the one who put that letter in my desk."
"Then? What would we do?"
"We have to catch the thief without startling it. I will discuss it later in our group in details. Now hurry up. The bus will arrive within half an hour."
"Bus? Didn't you car came to pick you up."
"I told them not too."
"Do you really plan to go by bus today? Is it because you don't want to lie to the teacher."
"Hmm."
Saba sighed, "you are really something ,"
"Hahaha," both of them laughed and ran to catch the bus.
Later at home,
Kifayat had finished her school work right after coming home. She discussed her plans with her friends. She was so immersed in the chatting with her friends that she did not even notice her younger brother came to her room. Kifayat's younger brother entered her sister's room to check if she is alright.
Because everyday his sister would come to his room at this time to check his homework or play with him. But today she did not come.
"Sister, are you okay." Zarin said in a worried tone.
"Zarin!?" Kifayat immediately put her phone aside. "Why are you here?"
"You didn't come to my room. I thought you are sick."
"Oh my! Are you worried about me, baby." Zarin giggled. "I am sorry, Sister forgot,"
*It's okay Sister. I know you are busy."
Kifayat couldn't but help kissing his adorable younger brother. Especially when he tries to talk like an adult, he looks so cute !!!
Kifayat have a younger brother named Zarin Anjum who is five years younger than her. She loves her brother very much. Although they have a 5 year age gap these two siblings are very close. Their most favorite hobby is to spend time with each other.
"Sister, why do you have so many envelope on you bed."
Zarin looked curiously at the bed. These envelopes are so pretty. He also made several handmade envelopes for his sister before but those were not as pretty as these ones. He wanted to collect these envelopes.
"Zarin, do you like these envelopes?"
"Yes, sister. Can I have it?" Zarin looked with so much anticipation that Kifayat couldn't bear to reject him.
"Of course you can. Wait a minute." Kifayat started to take out the letters from the envelopes.
"So many letters, is it yours, sister." Zarin is a polite child. He didn't open the letters out of curiosity but asked his sister.
Kifayat was stunned. How should she answer this?!
"Ehmm!! Zarin, I have huge secret to tell you. Promise me you will not tell others about it."
Zarin was naturally curious about his sister's secret. He excitedly promised that he will not tell other's about the secret, not even their parents.
"Actually some has been sending letter's to your sister anonymously for a while."
"Is that so. What is written in that letter?"
Zarin was curious," Is it a love letter? "
He knew his sister is pretty. It is normal for people to send her love letter which means they have good eyes.
"Well...." Kifayat suddenly remembered that she never read those letters properly. It was either Cyra, Saba or Lia who read the letter and said it is a love letter. But she can't say that it is love letter to her brother though. It will lead to bad example.
"It is not a love letter but a threatening letter," Kifayat replied in a solemn tone.
Zarin's eyes got bigger. He help her mouth with both hands and said, "Is it a threatening letter shown in TV."
Kifayat nodded.
