A good noise🖼

Its 1 am at night...the entire house is filled with silence.

"Did they slept", whispered the TV

"I think so", said the sofa looking at the bed room.

"Awww..OMG my back is paining. Do you know how fast that bittu jumped on me", cute little yellow cushion on sofa said in grumpy way.

"Wait,Who is bittu?", forgetting everything as usual remote asked.

"Ufff..He is our owner's 4 year old son", said the TV and asked her,"when will your oblivion gonna stop?"

"Hmmm,she thought a while...ohh yes I remember now. What can I do? If I don't work properly, instead of changing my batteries these people will keep on tapping me. So that I got short term memory loss", said the remote making a puppy face.

"After this smartphone came to our home, they are not watching me as they used to watch", TV worried.

"It's ok kids watching u and our owners watching you either", 25 years old table consoled him.

"Did you hear that sound?", questioned the remote.

"What? We don't hear anything..If you are sleepy go and sleep... please don't blabber something", Cushion said her.

Suddenly some noise came from outside.

"Now!! Did you hear thar? Did you hear that?", remote asked.

Now everyone heard that sound.

"Look at the shadow in window..It's a

thief..", sofa panicked.

"What to do now?", cushion asked.

"We have to aware our owner, said the Table. Shall I switch on the TV, so that they wake up", remote gave an idea.

"Are you out of your mind? Which Thief in the world would watch TV in the house where he came to rob. If you do like that , then they will think some ghost might entered into our home", the TV said.

"Idea!! We will ask the wall hanging to fall down. So that they will wake up and it will be like an accident", said the Table looking at the glass wall hanging beside the window.

"Wow!! fantastic idea", cushion said.

"Hey..Wall hanging, wake up..", sofa tried to wake him up. Wall hanging opened his eyes slowly.

"Hmm..what do you want? Let me sleep", he said and again closed his eyes.

"Hey... Wholeday you are just sleeping. Atleast now you help us", by saying so cushion rolled his eyes.

"Ok fine. What's the matter?", wall hanging questioned them.

"Look there is some thief entered into our house. We have to aware our owners", remote said.

"What???", wall hanging gets shock, " but how?"

"Ahh..Its you...I mean you have to fell down to make a noise. So that they will wake up", Table said with a heavy heart.

"What!!!," everything seems blurred for the wall hanging, "no no no I can't...don't you think I will get hurt"

"Now we don't have any other option", the TV said by looking down.

The wall hanging thought for a while. Every moment came in front of him. He recalled the first time he came to their home. He was gifted to Bittu's mom by her sister. The happiness in her eyes while opening the gift. Everything came in front of him. Finally... after taking a long breath,

"I'm ready", said the wall hanging.

Tears started flowing from everyone's eyes. "Good luck", they said.

"Don't forget me. Bye friends. God save me", said the wall hanging.

He fallen down. Clink!!!

Having heard the breaking noise, Bittu's mom and dad awaken. "What's the sound ?" , she asked. "Let me check", Bittu's dad goes to see. His wife follows him.

She saw the broken wall hanging. They went near by it.

He saw someone shadow. He caught the thief by holding him by backside. "Hey who are you? What are you doing here?", he asked him. They both tied him by rope and handed over him to the police.

Bittu's mom took the broken wall hanging. She put it in a cover and kept it in another room. They returned to sleep.

Again the lights are switched off.

"We lost him", Remote cried.

"But he did an amazing job", Sofa consoled everyone.

"He not only saved our home, but the entire town. Hats off.", said the Table.

That night went by sorrow.

Next day, at the evening....

Bittu's dad came home from office.

"Look what I got", he said by giving a parcel to Bittu's mom.

She opened it. The same wall hanging. Her eyes wide with happiness.

"You got it fixed, Thank you", she smiled. Then she hanged it on the same place.

His friends became happy by seeing him. The wall hanging winked at his friends and smiled.
