When I became a ghost!A Story by AmadaMy younger brother asked me "what would you do bheya (Brother) if you become a ghost for a day?"
Me: *Sleeping*
Mom: Rahul, wake up! There is a letter for you. Me: *Wakes up* Mom: Here take this letter. It’s from some GWA. *Takes the letter from Mom* Me: GWA? *Opens the envelope* “Dear Rahul, We, the Ghost Welfare Association (GWA) is proud to announce you as the leader of our Ghost Community but for just 1 day. We all have high hopes from you. So, tomorrow at 3 am in the morning, go to your house’s terrace and shout, “Chinki Chudail (=Witch), I love you!” Our associate would pick you up from there. Yours Deadly, Ganpat Head of GWA” Me: *To myself* Damn, what did I just read? Mom: What happened? What’s GWA? Me: Umm… nothing mom! GWA is the company where I applied for internship and they accepeted my offer. Mom: Cool! *At 3 am* Me: Let’s go to the terrace! *At terrace* Me: *Shouts* Chinki Chudail (=Witch), I love you! *A car arrives on the terrace, being driven by a Skeleton* Skeleton: Welcome sir! Me: ……. Skeleton: Don’t be scared sir. Now, you’re like us! Me: What do you mean? Skeleton: Look behind sir! *Looks behind* Me: *Scared* T..t..t..that’s my body! Skeleton: Relax sir, it’s only for one day. Now, just hop in my ferrari! *Reaches Ghost Headquarters* Me: Damn, you guys have social media handle too? Skeleton: Well yeah sir! Our Facebook page has 20 M+ dead likes. Me: What do you post on your Facebook page? Skeleton: Sir, we have professional photographers who work for us and clicks our photo during various occasions of scaring people, weekly picnics, parties, etc. Me: Sounds cool! But, are you guys visible in pictures? Skeleton: No! We actually don’t care. All that matters to us is this deadly relationship with other people. *Enters main office* Ganpat (Head of GWA): Welcome sir, welcome! Congratulations on this position! Me: Well, thanks. But how did you come to know about me? And what would be my duties for one day? Ganpat: Sir, Chinki (Witch) is a huge fan of yours, and she reads each and every stories and poems of yours on Writerscafe, and she review it too *winks*. She only referred us your name. Sir, you see these days, ghosts are going out of fashion. Zombies are coming in. Also, many humans think we don’t exist, so sir, we need your help, to get back our lost respect. *A girl with white clothes, long nails, twisted legs, and face covered with long hair, enters the room* Me: Chinki? Chinki: *Blushing* What? Me: How do you read my stories and poems with that long hair covering your face? Chinki: *Starts crying* Ganpat: *Consoling Chinki* That’s not funny sir! She’s like my daughter. Me: I was just joking! Sorry. *So my whole day is spent in bringing back the lost respect of Ghost community by developing scary techniques, and modifying the existing ones* *At the end* Me: *Shakes hand with Ganpat* It was nice working with you! Ganpat: Same here sir. Here is your certificate and offer letter, if you ever want to spend time with “Dead people”! Me: *For formality sake* Well, I would love to! Ganpat: Sir, just open that door and you’ll be back to your original form. Me: Okay, thanks! *Says goodbye to all* *Opens that door* *Enters the Ghost world again* Me: Damn, what the hell? Ganpat: Ahem! Sir forgot to tell you something. Me: *Scared* What? Ganpat: 1 Ghost day= 100 Human Years! *winks*
