No trace except a drop of blood was found near her home. The villagers demanded it to be declared as a man-eater and hence either trap or eliminate the big cat.

I could see him from my balcony clearly and distinctly standing on the opposite footpath. He is a handsome young man and there is no doubt  about it.

Perhaps he is been kept waiting for reasons only known to her ! For few moments I moved away from my balcony to come back again. My sight of course fell on the same spot where the young man stood impatiently. There was no one and I thought she must have come and they together went to their  chosen  place.
