167. I'm not scared of you.

Akash strolled down from his room with his eyes half-closed to get some water. But to his surprise, there was someone already there. Whoever it was, was stumbling through the darkness making a whole lot of noise.

Akash entered the kitchen frowning. All the staff has quarters outside… so technically no one should be here now. Even if they were, it did not make sense to him why someone would loiter around in the middle of the night without bothering to switch on the light. He reached for the light switches and flipped it. And what came into view was Madhu sneaking into one of the cupboards.

Madhu was so startled by the sudden flash of light that she actually dropped the spoon in her hands and yelped turning around.

"What are you doing??" Akash asked confused seeing her here.
