“Have you bought a new scooter, Dan?”
“Nope. Can’t afford one …..” He smiled wryly.
“I’ve seen it parked here a couple of times.”
Pop….Pop… Pop …. Dan’s phone crackled with notifications, as he entered the house. He was connected to the wifi. Who gave him the password?
The pieces of the puzzle were falling in place. He had to map the dates of Dan’s absence from office, disappearance of money from the house and the scooter being parked in this place. He would’ve all the proof, but after implicating a dear one of complicity in the crime. Will he?

Deceit is always discovered. Good one, Reena!

I like the line Dan’s phone crackled with notifications. If the guy can crack the wifi, I wouldnt put anything past him.

There’ll be some uncomfortable talks in that family coming up, I think. A different decision for the narrator.
