Despite the disturbed sleep, Ramya woke up the next day with a clearer head. It was a Saturday and she didn't have anything planned. She decided that she was going to find out for sure whether anybody was using the hole in her bathroom wall to peek at her while she was bathing or not.
A movie scene had given her an idea and she decided to use her smartphone. She went to her bathroom and made a lot of noise by rattling the bucket and dropping the plastic mug a couple of times. She then kept her smartphone against the wall with the camera right up against the hole that she'd discovered just under the shower handle. She'd put the camera in video mode, hit record and waited.
Within a few seconds, she could see some movement on her smartphone screen. The image was not very clear, but she kept her cool and just waited patiently. Suddenly, the picture came into sharper focus and looked brighter. Ramya realized that somebody had switched on the light in the room on the other side of the wall! As a shape started coming closer, she realized that her suspicions had become reality - somebody had been enjoying peepshows of her young, naked body while she was bathing!
She could now see the face quite clearly - it was her neighbour's son! "So YOU are the guy that's been jerking off while I bathe!" she thought to herself. She wanted to turn the tables on the boy, and started thinking about how to do it while she silently switched off her bathroom light and walked out softly.
Within a few minutes, Ramya had figured out how to confront the boy; she didn't even know his name, and take him to task. Just thinking about it made her aroused again, and she realized that this was going to be fun. She started wondering how far she'd be willing to take this, and started kneading her breasts through her t-shirt to relieve some of the built-up tension. She decided that she was going to put her plan into action right away since the guy seemed to be at home for the weekend. Ramya changed into her usual conservative clothes, walked over to her neighbour's house and rang the doorbell.
"Hello Vandhana aunty, how are you?" she said as her middle-aged neighbour opened the door. She seemed to be in the midst of cooking as she was still holding a spoon, and Ramya could smell food cooking.
"Hello Ramya, I am well, how are you?" Vandhana responded, "Come on in, we haven't seen in you while. How are your studies going?" she said.
"All fine, aunty, I had been very busy with my project submission and finally completed it yesterday. I now have a few days of break." Ramya said as she entered their home.
"That's good, I also keep telling Adarsh to take a lesson from you and focus on studies. Would you like some coffee?" Vandhana clearly worshipped her as the middle-class ideal of a hardworking student, Ramya realized as she remembered that the guy's name was Adarsh. It would only make it easier on her.
"No thank you, aunty. I've already had my coffee. I actually needed some help and was wondering if uncle or Adarsh could help," Ramya said, all the while hoping that uncle was not around. "I have some heavy boxes in the loft that need to be unpacked and I wanted to use the break to complete it. Its too heavy for me to lift, and so..." Ramya said, and before she could complete her request Vandhana was nodding her head vigorously.
"Yes sure, Adarsh can help." she said, and then said in a louder tone of voice designed to carry through the house, "It's not as though he is doing anything better. At least if he spends time in your company he may realize the importance of paying attention to his studies."
Ramya had to stop herself from laughing out aloud. She could her Adarsh's voice from inside his room calling out, "Amma, stop it, I am busy, I can't go."
"What busy, you are doing nothing. I dont wan't to hear any word. Now get dressed and go help akka (elder sister)." she said, "You go home, Ramya. I will send him in a little while." Ramya quickly thanked Vandhana and went back home to implement the second part of her plan.
It was another half hour before her doorbell rang. Ramya opened the door and silently motioned for Adarsh to enter and take a seat. He seemed to have a tough time making eye contact and just silently went and sat down allowing her some time to quietly bolt the door and look at him. Adarsh was not very tall - about 5'8" and had an average build. "Maybe he isn't able to attract any girlfriends and that's why he is resorting to such cheap tricks." Ramya thought to herself as she went closer. "What do you do, Adarsh?" she asked "I haven't had the chance to ask you previously."
He continued to avoid eye contact and was fidgeting with his smartphone. "First year BBA, akka," he said.
"Why are you not able make eye contact with me, Adarsh? Did you do anything wrong?" Ramya asked, deciding to go on the offensive.
"No, no," he stammered, "nothing like that."
"Are you sure?" Ramya asked again as she opened up the video she'd recorded in the bathroom, "Do you recognize this?" she asked as she walked up to him and put the phone up right against his face. She wanted to keep him off-balance and she wanted to keep control of the situation.
Adarsh started going red in the face and said, "I don't know, akka. I haven't seen this movie."
"This is not a movie, Adarsh," she said, "it's something worse." She moved the video to the portion where his face was clear and showed it to him again. "Do you recognize this now?" she asked.
"Its me! When did you get this?" Adarsh's surprise was very evident.
Ramya slapped him on the face - not too hard, but just enough to shock him. "I got it when you were trying to peep into my bathroom when I take my bath, you pervert!" she shouted at Adarsh. "What do you think I should do? What will your mother and father say when I show this to them?" she asked. Adarsh was too shocked to even try to deny anything.
"I'm sorry, akka. Please don't show this to my father. He'll kill me. He already things I am good for nothing. Please, please don't tell them. I won't do it ever again. I'm sorry." He started sobbing.
"Stop crying like a girl! Give me one reason why I should not tell your parents!" Ramya asked again. She was looking from capitulation from him.
"I am begging you, akka, please don't tell them, I'll never do it again. I'll close up the peephole today." he said again, "I'll do anything you tell me to."
"I want to know exactly what you did and what you saw. If you are completely honest with me, and do exactly as I tell you, I may not tell your parents. Again, I need you to do exactly as I tell you, is that clear?" she asked. Adarsh could only nod his head in agreement as he thought about what would happen if Ramya complained to his father!
