Searching for ghost
Rita was watching sky. She did it sometimes in childhood but she stopped doing it for long time. She was stuck in her life strange way. Every day was becoming struggle for her. She regretted her marriage. It was her wrong decision. But on that point it looked so promising. Her mother-in-law was alive. Her husband Tarun was under her control. Tarun was devoted son to his Mom. He did all as she wanted. He never said no to her. His Mom liked Rita so she was selected by him. He treated her nicely as his Mom wished. She was born in poor family. She felt that it was perfect decision. Tarun was nice husband at beginning. But soon she sensed that his devotion towards his Mom was just drama. He kept pretending until her death. He got large share of her wealth. He had two sisters & younger brother. They all got very limited sum. In fact it was nearly nothing to one sister. She was little upset but then she said " This is right thing. Mom need to spend more on my marriage & career." She smiled & then she nodded. Rita sensed that she was hurt. But they were lucky that she didn't drag issue. But finally her husband Tarun got big share & big house. He was acting so nice even on funeral. Then he changed. He came in room & declared " You are such useless thing. Why you need to keep two maids?" She was so confused. She never decided such a things Mom did. " I don't keep anyone Mom did." " That useless old woman! She wasted so much money when she was alive. Why we need those servants? You can do all!" She nodded. She knew that they had household of just two so she could do all. But she didn't like the way he mentioned her mother-in-law. Still she didn't say anything since she was too scared to mention it. He was already in angry mood. He began to talk about his mother in most evil way. " She managed to destroy my life. I needed to act like good boy." Then he turned toward her. " What about you? Don't you want to enjoy life?!" She answered shyly. " I am happy with my life!" He looked shocked. " What?! you were not pretending! You really like her!" He started laughing. It was so strange. She felt so scared. She sensed that her entire life was fake. He began to dance around room. He began to plan tour to abroad. He was so happy. She was so confused. He packed his bag & said " Bye." He went to door then he came back. He gave her credit card. " This have money. Enjoy your life." He began to sing song of some freedom. It didn't made much sense to her. It was so confusing. She was so upset. She always liked her mother-in-law. She never thought that her husband was pretending. Tarun was pretending every thing. She began to feel so sad. She didn't understand what was wrong with her. She was nice girl but suddenly it was not enough. After that Tarun's entire life was changed. He began to party daily. He was earning money & wasting money daily. She didn't understand how did he earned it. But she sensed that it was not right. He was not going ahead in right way. He was doing something wrong. But he didn't care. He was so happy. He began to bring his friends in home. He started throwing such lavish parties that soon all relatives started admiring him. They didn't mention his treatment towards her. She was not getting pregnant. They all felt that it was okay if he treated her this way. She wasn't giving him a child. They kept telling her to visit different Doctors. But she knew that she was just fine. She was so upset. She didn't understand why she didn't manage to get pregnant. He didn't taunt her directly but he kept saying " I don't understand why I keep you." According to him she was just some old furniture which he needed to throw out of house. She knew that soon he would do that. She was watching sky on that day. She was actually counting stars or her days in that house. She didn't know what would happen next. On that point drunk Tarun entered. He screamed on her. " Bring one cup of coffee for me." She was so confused. But she nodded. She went in kitchen. She began to make coffee. Entire time he was abusing her in room. She didn't know cause & she didn't dare to ask. She was too scared. Finally when she came back with coffee, he ordered her to drink it herself. She took deep breath & said " I don't drink coffee. It make acidic to me!" She was so confused. She didn't understand what was wrong with her. She was so upset. He was looking towards her with such anger. He gave her angry look. He began to scream " You are such useless thing. You can't earn money. You can't produce baby. You can't drink coffee?! Drink it!.." he screamed loudly on her. She shivered. She suddenly felt strange pain in her throat. It was so strange. It seemed as if someone was strangling her. She began to look around. She knew no one was near her. Tarun was far away. She didn't understand those invisible hands. She was so sure that someone was strangling her. She wanted to ask for help. But she knew that it was useless. Her voice was not going to come out. She began to feel that her windpipes were closed. She began to make strange sound. By this time Tarun managed to throw away coffee. He was not interested in her. He didn't care if she became breathless. He was so happy since he began to sing again. She didn't understand cause of his happiness. But she couldn't able to speak. She was getting breathless. Then suddenly hold on her windpipes vanished. She looked around. She didn't see anything odd. Her room was perfect. She suddenly remembered that she forgot to do ritual for her mother-in-law's death anniversary. She supposed to do it. She didn't want her mother-in-law's soul to suffer. She knew that this was happening due to it. She could sense strange feeling. She never knew about such things but her sister-in-law Purva knew. She heard many times Purva talking about ghosts & paranormal. But she never took it seriously. She wanted to get over those superstitions. But today when she sensed some hand on her throat. She knew that it was not possible. But she sensed it. She was so helpless. She started crying while cleaning coffee which Tarun threw away.
Purva began to get so restless. She knew that her life was getting nowhere. Her Mom was her sole source of entertainment. Her Mom used to bring different clients to her. Purva used to do little bit pamistary for them. Actually Purva didn't knew much. She went a class for few days & doing it for time pass. She wanted some money from her Mom. But she didn't got any. She knew reason behind it. She didn't tell it to others. She read her Mom's hand in wrong way. She told her Mom that Tarun was going to have son. But unfortunately they didn't have any child. She didn't understand why her Mom didn't show patience. They were still young & after noticing Tarun's change after Mom's death she felt surely he was going to have a son or daughter. He was dancing with countless girls. Her friends were telling about it. He was earning so much & wasting so much too. She didn't understand what was source of Tarun's earning but she knew that it was not hard work. He was not working at all. He was just enjoying life. Her one friend was telling that he was coordinating many things. She didn't understand what this implied. She didn't go in details. She sensed one thing that he was changed. She didn't want to do search on it since it was not her business. She wanted to just someone who could help her in starting her pamistary again. She knew that she could predict it. But her friends kept telling her that she was no longer have that strength. She didn't understand what was missing. She was doing everything in perfect way. She knew that she was meditation. But now she needed to find some way to open new life. She was so happy when she saw Rita's call. She knew that Rita would start something. Rita was so influenced by her Mom that Rita would surely come to her for suggestions. She needed someone who thought about her in positive way. She wanted to use her talent. She knew that Rita would surely demand about it. She wanted to do few tricks. She took deep breath. She could sense that message in air. She would manage to understand it. She felt strange impact on thought. She knew that she needed to take this call. She took it. Rita took deep breath & said " I want to talk with you.." " Sure! You know me! I always welcome you." Rita felt so relieved. " I will reach there in half an hour. " Purva " Take your own time. I not planning to go anywhere." She smiled. Rita didn't know how but she could imagine smile on Purva's lips easily. Rita sensed strange connection. She was so happy. She felt that she needed to visit her. She took deep breath. Today she was breathing in strange way. Her every breath had strange impact. She was feeling so restless. She went towards cupboard. She started to choose her dress. Then she decided that she would go for saree. Traditional look would make her feel better. She needed to look that way. She wanted to create atmosphere for Purva. She knew that Purva was not on right track these days. Once Purva used to find all. But now she was stuck. Rita knew that many things happened when she predicted but her pregnancy didn't happen. But Rita knew that it must be her mistake. She began to think that it might be because she took that tonic. She felt that it was making her healthy. But now she began to think that it managed to kill her unborn. She shivered & started crying. She began to feel that her unborn might be in her body even now. She started to touch her stomach. She began to hope to touch her baby. That baby was somewhere. She knew that soul of baby who Purva promised. She knew that this baby was around. She could sense her baby in air. She just needed to get that baby in her body. She could sense feeling. She could hear crying voice of child. She knew that she needed that child. She got ready like some new bride. She was so happy. But when she came down to sit in her car, security looked towards her in shock. He didn't say anything but his eyes were asking every question. She didn't answer. She decided to ignore him. She began to sat & drive. She was so scared of driving but her mother-in-law gave her that confidence. She felt so scared but she began to love car after driving. It was so promising. She even loved driving today. She started radio & it began to play children's music. She smiled. It was clear signal. Her child was going to enter in world. She could sense that voice in her heart. It was so pleasant & promising. She began to feel so happy about it. She started to feel so positive. She knew that Purva would give her child. She went in her flat with hopeful feeling. She was having different wish from her heart. She was feeling so frustrated. She wanted to sense positive in her life. She went straight way in Purva's apartment. It was large apartment so much like a big bangalow. She wanted once such a big house but her mother-in-law convinced her against it. Her mother-in-law said " It will large cost to maintain. We don't want to stuck so much amount." She agreed. Today she felt that she took good decision. She began to feel so upset. She started think about her hopes. Then she rang door bell. She smiled when she saw Purva. Purva looked towards her with different way. She kept feeling so positive. She started observing around. Purva managed to recreate entire room. But Purva looked shocked too. Purva "Are you coming from some marriage?" " No..no" she started laughing. " I just felt that I must admire God from heart." Purva smiled & nodded. Purva didn't feel that Rita was normal. But Rita looked so confident. Rita seemed totally normal. It was strange that Rita was not normal but still she seemed like normal in every way. It was so confusing. She smiled & they went in room. Purva started doing her ritual like normally she did. It didn't took her long to sense it's impact on Rita. She sensed that it was not like normal. She normally used to do it like game. But today it was clear for Rita. On one point Rita said " Come Purva please bring my child in my body! You can do it.. "
On this point Purva stopped. Purva sensed that it was not normal. She felt so much pain in her soul. She knew that Rita was losing her mind. Purva knew that this would happen one day. Purva knew that Tarun was firting around. Tarun was a cheater & ruthless husband. It was so heart shattering Rita. Purva knew that she couldn't bring a child in Rita's body. She stopped meditation & hold Rita’s hand. " Honey your child is not around. I have not found it last time. Just sensed it's presence!" Rita started laughing. Rita " But I found it." Then Rita pointed around in air. " It is somewhere around. I can sense it! It's presence send shiver of hope. I know it is around." Then she began to scream " Come to me honey." Then suddenly Rita pointed towards window. " It is there." She started running towards gallery. Purva tried to run behind her. But Purva's speed was so slow. Rita jumped down before her eyes & Purva kept screaming. Soon entire society gathered. Cops came. Purva was crying so loudly. Purva was all alone. Her children were settled in abroad. Her husband was already dead. She used to do this business of fortune telling with help of her Mom as hobby. But Purva was doing it since she was feeling lonely too. Purva felt so scared. She was screaming but she knew that there was blood around Rita. She could see but she couldn't. She started vomiting. All people came running upstairs. Her door was locked. She forgot to open it. They kept screaming. She kept crying. She was feeling so sick. Finally she went to door & opened it. They began to ask her questions. She tried to answer. Then someone called Doctor who gave her medicine. She slept peacefully. When she woke up, Cops were sitting near her. She opened her eyes when she remembered all. She shivered & started crying. Then Cops started asking " Who was that lady?" " My sister-in-law." " Why did she jumped? Was their a cause?" She nodded. " She was disturbed since she didn't have child." " Her husband abused her." " I don't know. I know just one thing. She began to say that her child was out of her body in air. Then she ran to follow it." " You do handreading right?" She nodded. But then she added " I just read fortune. Never tell about soul or ghosts." " But your actions might have instigated her." " No..no I told her that her child doesn't exist." " Did you told her that her child exist before?" She nodded. She started crying. " I read her fortune wrong way & told her that she will have child. But now I feel it was Tarun's fortune of child. Mother might be.." " So your brother is cheating his wife." She was so shocked. How could she let it slip out of mouth. She tried to reverse it. " I mean he might plan to marry once again after her death!" " Stop changing your words! I can understand them all." It was so upsetting. Then that Cop went away. Tarun came in her room after sometime. Tarun began to scream " You blame it all on me? You killed her. You put that stupid idea of supernatural in her head. You even manage to make money by it from our Mom. Forget Mom. You fooled so many.." " I didn't. I can tell fortune." " Then why didn't you save her?" Now Purva became so confused. That night her husband came in her room. She could see her dead husband standing before her. She began to cry. She thought that he would blame her. But he didn't. He just smiled & went away. Her kids came next day. She told them about her husband. Her son took hold of her hand & said " Mom stop it. You are hurting yourself & many people around you! Don't you sense it." She felt so confused. She never meant to hurt anyone. But she began to believe it. She started to think that she might manage to harm many. She began to cry loudly. Her kids waited for sometime. Then they began to discuss psychiatrist. She said nothing. She was so shattered. Next morning she went to sleep. She hoped to see her husband. She wanted to see him. But he didn't appear. She was so upset. She told it to her nurse. Nurse smiled & said " It was due to trauma. Now slowly you will accept her death. It must be repeating of shocking death that brought back memory of your husband's death in your mind." She nodded. She shivered. She didn't understand why but she wanted to see that ghost again. At once she wanted to see him. She began to feel that she might call someone for help. She could contact that ghost. She knew that her kids would go back soon. They went away as per guess. They never lived with her for longer time. They had their life. Tarun never met her again. Cops closed Rita's case as suicide case due to depression. So no one was paying attention to her. On that point she called that woman who could bring ghost. They both sat. They kept trying for hours. But nothing happened. She began to feel so upset. Finally that woman said " I feel your husband's soul is at rest. He is either in heaven or took rebirth. But he will not visit us." Purva nodded. Purva sensed one thing that it was not paranormal. She knew that she needed just one person that was psychiatrist. She took appointment. She began to discuss all. Psychiatrist talked with her in pleasant way. Psychiatrist didn't taunt her profession on anything. She was so happy & shocked. Finally she asked " You don't believe on my profession still you don't comment on it?" He smiled & said " It is your belief until it doesn't harm your kind it is okay for you. I don't taunt you for keeping wrong belief. I just correct them. I am sure when I will explain it to you then step by step you will correct them all. I am not here to judge you. I am here to help you." She smiled happily. Then step by step he began to explain her how did she started this fake belief to replace loss of husband by this belief. She felt so nice. She understood that she took right decision. She felt that now she didn't need to search of ghost she would cope up with her memories & psychiatrical help.
The End
