Bats and birds

OUr Guntur house was very big and old building. Verandah was roofed by tiles.THere were big mango trees on both sides . IN the roof and on trees there were bats, birds and squirrels. Sparrows used to come in to the house and fly hither and thither. Once ONE sparrow died after hitting the fan. I was shocked and ran out . I was afraid even to take out the dead bird .Annapoornamma came and cleaned the house. Like wise bats used to come in to the house and fly during the nights. I was alone. So I was naturally afraid that they strike at me. THey would me miving so fast.Till they went away I used to rush outwards and wait.
I told you I wore white saree with green border on the day of pelli chupulu. After they went I kept it on stand and later folded it and kept it in the trunk. I did not wear that saree for many days. Oneday when I held that saree to take out from trunk some dry paperlike touch I felt. When I unfolded the saree to wear one bat was attached to saree holding it tight by its nails.I shrieked and ran out.I told to my house owners what happened. They came inside and found that it was dead.With great difficulty they removed and detatched the bat from the saree.I did not wear that saree from then onwards. I felt it was sort of omen and felt happy that that match was not materialised.
