Do you realize WHAT you were asking me to do?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>My mother-in-law sat stiffly, as if someone had tightened an iron belt around her shoulders.<\/p>\n<p>And I simply looked at the two of them. My husband \u2014 scared, shaken. My mother-in-law \u2014 for the first time in her life without an ounce of certainty.<\/p>\n<p>Strange, though\u2026 that the \u201cburglar\u201d hadn\u2019t taken anything valuable. Not even the jewelry, which was exactly where I had left it. Nothing was missing. Absolutely nothing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Even the investigators were surprised:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt looks more like someone just wanted to make noise\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I just nodded, pretending to hear this for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>From that day on, my mother-in-law never whispered anything to her son about locks again.
