“Talk to him, but be,” Leona advised. “We’re not sure if he’s involved just a concern bystander.”
I approached Ravi as he was about to leave. He look tense, but I needs answers.
“I’m sorry about yesterday,” he bents before I could speak. “I saw some guys messing with your trash. They look shady. I wanted to warn you, but I was scared they might still be around.
Relief washed over me. “So that’s why you left the note?”
He nodded. “I’m sorry if I scared you.”
“Ravi, you might have saved my family. Thank you,” I said, my voice thick with emotion.
Later, after tucking my kids into bed, I sat in front of the new security monitors. The cameras showquest quiet and empty yards, but I cancen’t shake the feeling that someone was out there, watching, waiting for their chance. Whatever happened next, I knew wasn I’t alone. Ravi’s quick thinking, Leona’s, dedication and my own determination had potential turntheat tragedy into a story of vigilance and allies. All I could do now was stay alert and keep my safe family.
