Rainy day

It was a rainy day. I was around 14 yrs of age then. I was at home alone and it was raining heavily. I heard the door bell ring. I saw an unknown man of around 45 yrs of age after opening the door. He mentioned my father's name and my uncle's name. My uncle also lives in the same city as us. I let him in thinking he is a family friend.

He sat on sofa and started a chat himself. He complained that some part of the land where my uncle is constructing the house belonged to him. He presented many scary situations like he might call police, will go to court and will call rowdies to scare my uncle etc. I just listened as he would not let me speak. He was not angry. He was talking in calm and normal voice. I felt my uncle has really done some illegal act and I was very scared that something bad might happen to him.

After 25 minutes, the rain stopped. He saw that it is not raining and got up. He said now that rain is stopped he will leave. He mentioned that he came to our house as he did not had umbrella and he did not want to walk in rain.

I was puzzled. I talked to my uncle next day and asked him if he has grabbed any land. He answered negatively. Even after many weeks/months/years there was no police complaint or court case or any rowdy threatening anyone in our family.

Maybe I should have asked stranger's name.
