IT’S AN EMERGENCY GHOST

IT’S AN EMERGENCY GHOST

August 1, 2013

 On fine day, I am moving fast to catch my college bus. Lot of struggle for maintain the speed of my running capacity, lungs resist the more air because of sudden variation in values, heart beats rise, some sweat in my eyes, legs are in vibration. Finally I get into the bus. While moving to college, I always look at my school which is on the way. One strong block made me to entry this college. B.v.n is my school name. My friend next to me asked “what the matter Sarath, why you smiling?”

“I thought about my school days, Ramesh “I looked straight to watch the road, “it’s a nice incident to be shared, can I continue to you”

“Ya say it “

One fine day in my school , I am in 12 th standard , every   teacher in my  school is in full swing to  develop the students and boost them to score good marks in the  public exam. We didn’t mind them and respect them. They too don’t want it. But they are strict in the exam point of view. They add special thing to the school duration, like special class. School time start and ends in 8 am – 4.30pm, special class starts at 5pm – 8pm. Every student in the class, bug the special class because they doesn’t like the special class. I am and few students will be in class till the end of the time. We will not bug the class because we not have bike, in this area transport facility is low.

    I made a bet with my friend, as I will bug the class and attend the party with him. Party was organized by a birthday boy, his name I don’t remember. Party time 8pm so need to come out of the school at 7pm. It doesn’t a matter for me to bug the class, though after 7o’clock it math’s class, I am free than. I am not good in maths but comparing with other students I am elite beyond them.

    We got the circular that math staff is absent someone going to engage the class. Whoever may be i got good name from everyone, so I can get the reputation. Student all sitting in the class principal came inside the class room and said “no one is allowed out of the school before closing time, it’s strict” then he went off to his cabin.

 If we think well, happening will be bad, sometimes very bad.

Arumugan sir is engaging the class just I moved forward and asked him “why principal is so angry? “

“It’s a problem because of you students bugging the class.”

“I am not “

“You also student know, you also in this issue partially”

“What issue, what you mean?”

“Today morning two of your friend (mohan Prasad and vijiyathar) got accident in front of our school main gate. They both were coming in Scotty pep to the school while crossing the road towards the left for parking. Unfortunately man driving splendor bike comes opposite to them crashed with them. Person in bike got injure in legs and soon he admitted in hospitals. This two of them escaped with minor injuries.  Principle is angry with that incident. Lot of scolding to the parents who gave the bike to UN licensed person, and from police too”.

“Sir it doesn’t a problem of them know, it’s an accident, it’s common for everyone. Who knows what happen next”

“Our main road (place were our school zone start and ends) has plenty of accident history. This accident are not happen because of rush driving or any mistake by accident. Our principal, I and person belong to the school belief in something, that not aware to you students”. “……………. ghost……………….. “He exclaimed.

 “Pardon excuse me “what it is?” I asked about the belief more than a time, but he didn’t attempt to explain. After 15 minutes he agrees to explain the belief.

“This accident happen because of ghost present in that area “.

“What ghost, do you believe in that spirit power, that unfair:”

Sometime you need to believe in that area more than physics, two year before one person coming in bike crashed in the road with other one and his head hits the nearby tree and his soul get out of his body in fraction of time. Plenty of people coming in that area say sometime strange things happen at midnight. that strange thing is "one guy cross this road in full speed hit the tree. His helmet is strange too. But there is no evidence of thing happening in night". This is power of evil he added

I doesn’t hear his myth and wrath of the evil power, because I believe in science. “I need to move home quick sir, today I have more work”. But story echo in me.

“Why so earlier wait till 8 pm, now time is 6.45 only” he avoided my eye contact.

“No sir, its emergency “

“Hmm go, finish the homework than move on”

“Yes sir” I moved out of the school. My school main road side has no street light it make the area dark. I am waiting for the bus. bus is not arrived yet, now the time is  7.30pm. It’s already late. I need to get the other facility, either by lift or by walk. Walk is not possible at this time; I need go 14 km to reach the destination point. I prefer lift and I raised my left hand with thumbs up sign. But the thought of ghost in that area side remind me to work fast. I hurried in action.

My eyes stretched and concentrated on the road. Darkness, deep silent, I too standing near a big tree, this made me too afraid. My badness no one is near me till my view point.   

Every second story echoed in my ears. silent motion leaves and crashing sound of branch, cooled wind hits my sweat area all over.

It happens. my eyes catch a bike coming in long distance.

 bike with full speed coming toward bus stop point. I shocked to see it, person who drives the bike with strange helmet. Everything i saw things as specified in the story by sir. I stepped backwards; my legs are shivering because of fear. Bike in full speed, its slow down and reached near me. within Few second i realized bike has stopped because of my thumbs-up sign. I can't avoid him because i signaled him to stop. 

   With a fear i walk near him, he has legs and neat face. I became brave and sit in the bike. Bike moves in full speed. 
bike slowly moves to the path. dew drops reached my hands. bike is moving in constant speed. then speed increase slowly. i thank the god because of his grace cleared the ghost point. 

  Within few more minutes his phone is ringing,  but he not noticing. strange guy with def  ears i said it in my mind. After one point i get the view of his jacket clearly in street light, jacket is with red color liquid. I toughed it, i am sure it’s a human blood. Phone was ranging but he is not listening to the sound, he is concentrated in driving moved left as need to pay the way for a truck. I am not sure he is a duff. His bike front portion is damaged. I asked him “why the front part of bike is damaged". 
voiced emerged "Bike hits the tree in a school area that's why” he concentrated in driving.

“And blood in you dress? Because of the accident! “I stressed him.
    He turned over his head and moved it front. Again the phone is ranging. He took the phone and gave it to me and asks to respond to it. I said “hello", waiting for the reply.

 Sweet girl voice from other side replied " bro where are you, it’s so late?”

“Mam your bro is on driving wait after some time his will speak” i said.

   Suddenly the person driving the bike speaks " i am not his bro, his brother  meet an accident in a school area, he serious " say this to the girl. what ?  I explained it to the girl. Girl started to cry and phone line dead. 

"Excuse me, why that girl’s bro hits on the tree, any reason behind it ? " he did reply i didn't ask him one more time.

    That person drops me in a destination before 2 km from the hospital. Where was he was going? (assumption)

I thanked him and moved to the hotel. "Suddenly voice from behind me, it’s from the person who drives the bike “that girls bro hits the tree because i came cross and opposite to him". He flies away.

 Now the time is 7.50pm i going to win in my beat.

Wait a second, the ghost story echoed again in my mind. If the person hits the tree means someone has to come across and opposite to him. Who is he? Where is he? Who is the guy given me lift?

      One answers “it’s an emergency ghost".
