Adventure story. 491. Boss's father

                                                              Boss's father

Harish was typing every word carefully. He knew that it was his job. He needed to write down whatever his Boss told. He did it daily. Harish was not new in company. But he was working for two years. It was perfect for him in beginning since he got good salary. But when he began his job suddenly he sensed all that glitter was not gold. His company was full of employees. He was not needed in company. His Boss kept him to entertain his father. It was strange. He didn't understand why he needed to do it. Boss's father was retired man. He didn't need anyone since he was not working. But his Boss told him one first day " This is my company but you needed to work in my house for my Dad.." Harish was truely disappointed. He thought that he would learn things by working here. He could hardly learn anything by working for an old retired man! He wanted his progress. He was not planning to stay in this company forever. But salary was large so he agreed. He needed to work. He was working there. But it was totally meaningless. This fellow called him inside room. Then he supposed to sit there. He knew that this old man was going to tell him to type something useless. He didn't understand what this fellow was typing. He was writing everything carefully. It seemed like some murder mystery. Every day that old man described how did a man was poisoning his family step by step. Boss's father insisted that it must move ahead properly. They were doing it daily. He didn't understand why did this fellow need to do it so properly. One day he even forced him to see on internet about this poison. Boss's Dad was strange. Harish couldn't forget how much search on computer for that poison. He was sure that if someone saw it then that person would surely feel that he was going to poison someone. He started laughing at that thought. He didn't have anyone to poison. His parents were staying in village. He was sending them money for his brother & sister. He was not planning to marry so soon. In fact he didn't feel that he would marry anyone. He was so upset by all. He didn't understand when did his life become so miserable. He took this job with big hopes but he was doing just one thing that was entertaining one old man. He knew that old fellow deserved respect. He came from family background where he always respected elders. But it was upsetting. He wanted to learn something. He wanted to create his future. But nothing was happening. He was so busy in thinking that he managed to wrote few words wrong way. They were not that much important. Then he wrote about poison. His Boss's father wanted it to be perfect. Then Boss's father said " I want you to purchase that poison!" " Why?" " I need to confirm that it work in perfect way!" " I don't understand. You are not planning to try poison?" Boss's father smiled. "Yes I will!" He was so shocked. He asked " On whom?" " My pet mouse!" " You have pet mouse!" Boss's father gave strange smile. " You don't know all about me! Do you?" Harish agreed. But he didn't understand how could a cage of pet mouse didn't catch his attention? He didn't want to argue so he said " Ok Sir! I will bring it tomorrow." Next day Harish came with poison. Boss's father took it & went in kitchen. Harish was confused. Harish " Be careful! It must not go in anyone's stomach!" Then Harish resumed typing again. Harish began to write. Suddenly his Boss's father told him to type a suicide note of hero. He didn't understand link but he typed it. Then Boss's father told him to give that page. Then he smiled. He asked " Do you want to go home early?" Harish nodded. He didn't want to work. He wanted to take rest. " Then go just bring that poison tomorrow." Harish nodded. Then Boss's father suddenly offered him tea. He was so shocked. He wanted to drink tea but he never got such offer. He was so happy to get free snacks. Boss's father called maid. He ordered snacks for him. Harish felt so pleasant smell of food. It was so nice. He began to eat it. Boss's father started to discuss different things. He was so happy. Then finally Boss's father gave him one envelope. He looked at it carefully & asked "What did you have inside?" Harish looked confused. Boss's father gave it to him & asked him. Harish " How did I know?" Boss's father smiled. " You are right you don't know. But remember you must bring that poison tomorrow & keep this enevolpe in cupbroad." Harish nodded. Harish stood up. He took that enevolpe with him. He was taking away that enevolpe but he was not sure that he was doing right thing. It was shocking. He didn't like carrying something without reading. He kept patience until he didn't reach to home. But when he reached inside home, he took deep breath. He went to room. He decided to close door. He didn't want to anyone see that paper. He knew that no one would bother. But still he didn't want. He closed door. Then he took it out of enevolpe. He began to read it. It was his suicide letter. He was shocked when he saw his signature under it. He sensed that he had not done it. He was so confused. But it was his signature. Then he remembered. One day Boss's father gave him one contract to sign. He wanted to read it. He read it too. But it was different this letter was different. He didn't understand how was it possible. It was practical joke but of worst nature. He was so angry. He wanted to call his Boss. He dialed. But Boss didn't took his mobile. Then he remembered. That day Boss warned him about today's meeting. He told his father specifically. " Don't call me on that time I am busy.." Harish disconnected call. Then he suddenly felt strange pain. He didn't understand what was wrong with him. His entire body was burning. He was feeling so strange. He wanted to call someone but it was too late. He began to remember that poison which he researched & supposed to buy. He remembered that he bought it before. He did it once for some research. He told about it to Boss's father. That one he threw away. But he began to feel that he might manage eat or drink it in someway. He wanted to call Doctor. But he was too late. He fall on ground while holding that letter. He was in so much pain. But door was locked. He knew that no one would see him. He took his last conscious breath while watching door with hope that someone would open it.

    Kantibhai smiled. He was father of Harish's Boss. Harish never sensed what was his plan. He knew that Harish didn't like to work for him. On first day he heard Harish talking to his son. Harish said " Sir I have joined Company for real job. I don't want to take care of old man. You could keep nurse for it." " My father is not sick. He didn't need nurse. He just wanted someone to type his book. I am giving you salary which is much larger than normal salary." Harish was so upset. Harish didn't sense that Kantibai was hearing this all. Kantibai was so angry. He was was not useless man. He was doing his experiments on human mind & it was interesting research. He knew that no one cared at this point but as days went ahead they would suffer & when they would suffer then they would care. He knew that he needed to hurt them. He needed to give them pain. He knew that whenever heart get hurt people pay attention. His wife did that. His parents did that. He always took risk. He knew that he might get caught but he never did. Now he was so sure. He knew that Harish would read letter. Harish was not honest person. Kantibhai did inquiries. Harish was taking commission on his purchases. His last employee was better than Harish. He was not planning to take commission. He was doing all honestly. But then one day it all changed. Kantibhai instigated him. Kantibhai did it but so what. It was not his crime. Just because someone offered he took money was not excuse. He knew that at beginning employee before Harish was totally honest. But even in last that employee didn't took money. He took chocolate. Now it was wrong too. Harish was taking commission. Kantibhai knew it. Kantibhai didn't contacted that chemist. But still he knew that. He could see it in Harish's eyes. He knew that Harish would open letter then die with it. Kantibhai was laughing so loudly. Kantibhai was such good in acting. His son never sensed that he was doing something. He appeared like innocent old man. He needed to pretend & he managed to do it very well. His son never suspected that he did something wrong. Kantibhai looked so happy. He was winning. Kantibhai was on top of world. He was managing to hide all. Kantibhai decided to create more drama this time. He began to plan all. He thought that he would introduce love life to Harish's life. Kantibhai started to smile. He looked at watch for time. When suitable time came he called his son. Kantibhai " That Harish left early today..." His son was confused. " Why?" " I don't know.." he paused for sometime then he added. " He was after some girl! I think planning to propose her. But I feel she is not right choice. She seemed like girl belong to rich family. He is not rich. She is just playing with him like toy.." Kantibhai was so happy. His son was listening to this gossip. His son was paying full attention. His son was feeling so sure that Kantibhai was telling truth. It was half success for Kantibhai. Then suddenly his son said " I don't want you to get involved in this. Did you suggest something?" "Well I discovered it by chance. I can't just ask on face." " Then when mention it." Kantibhai was so happy. Now his son wouldn't mention it. But Kantibhai knew that he wouldn't keep that promise when he heard about suicide. His son wouldn't let Cops question him. But Kantibhai wanted it that way only. He didn't want to face some Cop. He was not sure how did Cop act. If that Cop was smart then it might lead to more trouble. But he was sure that his son wouldn't involve him. He smiled. He knew that his son would always protect him. He was old weak man. He just needed to just pretend & he was expert in it. He pretended same way last time & his son believed. It all turned out successful. He was planning to do same again. He knew that his son was going to take good care of him. He was smiling. He ordered wonderful lunch from hotel. It was so tasty. He was smelling that pleasant taste. He was feeling so happy. He needed to eat before his son came. He needed to pretend before his son that he was tense. He was not hungry. He knew that it would be upsetting. But he would do it. He wanted his son to feel that he was tense for Harish. He enjoyed that idea. He wanted to feel sure that he did all perfectly. He knew that perfection was important in such crimes. He began to laugh on this thought. He thought properly. Then he ordered tasty food. He was so happy. He set table. It was time to enjoy another success. It was his another hunting. He loved doing hunting. His father used to like real hunting but Govt objected. His father always used to blame Govt for it. His father used to say " It is thrill which we must learn to survive. You must learn it too. Come on I tell you stories." then his father used to tell him stories of hunting of his grandfather. He used to enjoy them. He used to believe them. But when he grew up, he began to see holes in them. He sensed that they were imaginary fiction. But he wanted to do hunting. He didn't like to hunt animal. He wanted to hunt human. He was so careful. He never let his passion go out. He never did anything directly. He did all indirectly. If he properly instigated people did what he wanted. He didn't use poison at that time. But then he was not sure. He felt sometimes he might had. He once put some medicine in tiffin box of his competitor but competitor didn't die. Competitor just got sick. He still felt sorrow of that failure. He knew that he used wrong medicine. He needed to change it. He did it. He kept exprimenting one person after another. He managed to get success few times. But normally he failed. They survived. He needed to find proper poison or instrument to kill. He needed to get expert & now he was. He was so happy. He ate everything. Then he went to sleep. He was careful to hide all. He decided that he would open door immediately for his son. He knew that he needed to pretend. He was laughing even in sleep. It was so strange. But he didn't mind acting little strange. He was so happy. It was his second hunting.

  When Harish didn't open door for long time, his landlady began to feel upset. She didn't understand why but today she felt that something was wrong with Harish. He ran in room without saying hello. His landlady didn't like the way he acted too. He didn't understand why he was acting that way. She knew that it was his own thinking. But she was becoming fond of him. She had one daughter who was in last year of college. Her daughter was in hostel now. But she noticed that her daughter liked Harish. Even Harish showed liking towards her. Landlady didn't want to lose such wonderful son-in-law. She sensed that Harish was too shy. Now when Harish ran in room with letter, she began to feel suspicious. She wanted to confirm that she would manage to get him as son-in-law. She waited outside. She was so anxious. She didn't understand what excuse she could make to get inside. She didn't want to appear nosy person. Then she got an idea. She started to make tea. She made one cup of tea & went to door. She started knocking. He didn't open. She didn't like it. She screamed his name. He didn't open but she felt as if she heard some noise. She was so confused. She knew one thing that she needed to look inside room. She decided that she would do it anyway. She began to sleep & started to look from gap. She couldn't see anything. She was frustrated. She began to hit door like mad woman. On that point her door rang. A man came with delivery of items she ordered. She opened door but she was so tense. That man looked confused. She told him all. That man came inside. He screamed then he began to bang door. Then he said " Something happened to Harish sir! Just break door." She was so scared. She screamed with name of watchman. Soon people gathered. They managed to break door. Then they called Ambulance immediately. They were so scared. No one paid any attention to letter in Harish's hand. Doctor checked him. Doctor called Cops. Then Harish's treatment was started. Doctor came out & said " He is critical. He is poisoned." Cop"Can I take his statement?" " No. He is unconscious." Cop looked frustrated. Then Cop decided to search in his room. Cop found suicide note. Cop read. He got convinced. He began to do inquiries. Then he called Harish's Boss. Boss told him all story which was told to him by father. He turned to landlady. " Do you know about any girl Harish loved?" Landlady was shocked. " No he didn't love any girl." " This was according to his Boss." Landlady was shocked. Cop told story that told by Boss's father. Landlady was confused. She started crying. It felt like betrayal. Then Cop showed her suicide note. Landlady was shocked. Landlady said slowly " I bought one poison for him. He said he needed it for work. He was so happy. I never thought... " She started crying. Everything was perfect but on that point suddenly mobile rang. Doctor called. " Harish survived." Cop immediately went to hospital. Cop waited for Harish to come to senses. Harish didn't wait for Cop to ask. He immediately said " My Boss's father poisoned me." Cop was shocked. Harish explained all. At beginning Cop didn't believe. Then he asked about last person who was working for Boss's father. It turned out that he was dead too. That was also poisoning. Cop took deep breath. Boss's father was sitting on table with Boss. Then Boss's father heard Police siren. He was pretending sorrows when Cop knocked door. Boss's father was shocked when Cops came in. Cops told that they were arresting him. Boss's father was most upset when Cop told Harish survived. He began to scream " I am expert hunter. I killed him. He must die." Cops arrested him. Boss was just watching all with shock. They took his father away. Boss looked out of window but he didn't do anything. He just went in kitchen. He started cleaning it. He looked around. He didn't understand what should he feel relief or sorrow. Finally his father was arrested. But he knew that his father was doing it for long time. He didn't want to show world his madness. But finally it all was out. He was planning to destroy all diaries of his father. But then he stopped. Boss called Cops & told them to take it away. Boss began to clean home. Finally worst evil was out of home. He needed to clean it. He began to think that he might just perform some ritual to clean it. He began to call priest for it.
