Faith on Boss
Sameer started studying different files with different reports. He was reading all carefully. He was studying words he knew that his Boss was particular about everything. He needed everything to be perfect. He set all carefully. Then he turned towards frame of God. His Boss was believer of God so it was expected that all ritual should be done properly in office by staff before his entry. He began to call Archana who came with proper plate of flower and perfumed sticks to do rituals. She needed to do all properly. Boss wanted it to be perfect. Boss was believer so he wanted his office to do every ritual on time. He kept telling them that atmosphere of office but stay holi then only they would get business. Sameer believed him. Since when his Boss took over company it was on verge of closing. Sameer was so scared. He knew that he was going to lose job. He couldn't forget that nightmare. He kept giving interviews. But no one was giving him job. In fact he got rejected even on mobile. They kept demanding more skills from him. They began to create list of skills. He didn't possess them all. He had limited skills and he worked with them. He wanted to improve them. But he couldn't. He couldn't began to study them all. It was so frustrating. He was too tired. He didn't want to start learning again. In fact he was not even sure that he would get job if he learnt them. He sensed that they were just making excuses to avoid him. He was so scared when this Boss entered with his spirituality. They didn't have faith but when he started teaching it and company started getting profits they started to believe in it. They started to think that spiritual things were giving them success. They were opening new door for themselves. At beginning Sameer didn't believe it. But slowly he began to believe. He started to sense that this special power truly existe. He sensed it on first time when his son Satish became suddenly sick with fever. He still remembered that day. His son was burning with fever. He called family doctor. Doctor suggested medicine. He gave it as per instruction. He behaved like good patient. He did all as per advice of Doctor but soon he sensed that it was not helping. Fever of his son kept increasing. When he came in office, his wife was crying. He wanted to stay with her but it was impossible. He needed to go to job and earn money. Then he needed to spend it on Doctor's when their treatment was not much helpful. He was doing it even when he knew that it was useless. He was just doing duty of parent but he knew that it was meaningless. They didn't above to cure his son. His wife sensed same thing on that day so she was crying. She just bought new medicine which new Doctor suggested. They paid large fees to Doctor. Now they didn't see much effect at beginning they felt it worked but then fever came back again. He was so tense. He was working hard to hide his tears. But his Boss sensed it. Boss asked " What happened?" He said "Nothing!!" He just wanted to avoid subject. But his Boss kept insisting and finally he had to give up. He answered " My son is burning with fever." His Boss took deep breath. Then he suggested him a daily chanting. Boss " This is just chanting you don't need to feel scared of it even if you don't have faith." "But doesn't it becomes useless if said without faith?!!" Boss laughed. Boss "No..no it develops faith in you." Then Sameer began that chanting and slowly his son truly cured. After that he began to believe all. He started to believe that his son would become fine soon. He was no longer scared of evil spirits since he knew that he had lucky charm with him. He touched that necklace which his Boss gave him. He was so confused when it was given without his faith. But now he was sure. In fact entire office was sure. Archana was also doing it with full faith. Sameer asked her " Do you believe in God?" Archana looked nervous by this question. She looked around to get clue why did he asked this question. But she couldn't find cause so she asked him " What happened? Did you feel I did some mistake in ritual? Why did you question me like that?" Sameer " No..no it's perfect. Actually I am impressed by it's perfection." " Actually my Mom was devotee but not me. But still I don't mind keep little faith. Specially since our Boss improved our financial status so I am with him. Whatever he want should be done!!" Sameer was shocked. He sensed that it was not about faith but about money. Archana was only trying to please her Boss. He felt so sad. He wanted to find someone who shared same interest as him. But clearly it was not going to happen. He felt so scared. He started to sense that others didn't share faith. They were just pretending. He didn't like it. " Archana you must not just pretend faith. It might have bad effects. " Archana looked shocked. " Shh don't say such things. I never denied faith but I am not that faithful since death of my Dad in young age. It had worst effect on my faith." Sameer felt sympathy towards her. He gave her sad look and nodded. It was so sad. He wanted someone with faith. But he knew that he couldn't find easily since in this office every one was pretending to please Boss. Then his Boss entered. Boss smiled towards him. Sameer sensed God's blessing on his entire posture. His Boss was someone so great. Sometimes he wished he had some way to catch his picture. He wanted to keep it with God's photos. He wanted to worship him but his wife was against it. She said that they couldn't do this with alive man. He might have worst impact on him. His wife said that she heard somewhere it managed to reduce person's life. He didn't believe it but still he didn't want to take risk so he didn't do it. But when he saw his Boss. He felt as if he managed to see his God. Boss smiled and said " Good Morning " such a way that he felt he was in sky. His Boss had special blessing of God which would show new light to his life. He smiled happily and started to obey his Boss most devotedly. He did all as per his instructions. He never questioned his Boss. He saved his son. His Boss was God to him. He started to do everything in his best way to please Boss.
Boss entered and smiled " Sameer I am happy with your work so I have recommended you for increment!!" Sameer smiled happily. Sameer " Thank you Sir!" Boss " So are you still chanting the way I suggested?!!"Sameer nodded. "Great!!" Then his Boss kept quiet for sometime finally he said " There is also one bad news for you." Sameer gave him alert look. Boss " No need to get so tense but still I must tell it." Sameer began to feel upset. He wanted to avoid issues. Boss was clearly planning to break one bad news and whenever his Boss said news was bad then it always turned out to be worst. He shivered with fear. Boss " Actually I am getting transferred!!" Sameer felt as if his entire world turned upside down. Sameer started to get so scared that he began to feel his whole life was on verge of break down. He couldn't survive without his Boss. He couldn't hold back his tears. His Boss looked shocked. Boss " What happened?" Sameer " I can't live without you!!" His Boss gave him strange look and started laughing. Boss " You are suppose to say this to your wife not me!!" Sameer didn't even felt hurt on this cheap joke. He just wanted to his Boss to guide him every day. " I need your guidance. You must keep telling me.." Boss didn't seem to like it. Boss " Frankly you are acting too strange!!" Boss didn't seem to be pleased by his attitude. He felt so sad. He began to feel upset. He knew that Boss was not interested in taking him but he didn't understand until now Boss always kept him like shadow now suddenly he was not needed. Sameer " But Boss I thought I can depend on you about my future." " Yes of course!! So you are getting increment for your help but you can't claim that you wanted to stay with me in every office!!" Boss was already upset. Boss " You are behaving in strange way." Sameer didn't want to upset Boss so he started laughing. Boss looked confused then Boss started laughing too. Boss " My God your this joke scared me fully this time?!! I was literally shivering." Sameer " I just want to create a moment for you on your send off which you could remember for entire life." Sameer didn't let his Boss see his true face behind fake smile. It was clear that his boss didn't become his guide or God. Boss wanted to leave him and Sameer needed to accept it or everyone would look at him in strange way as if he was some mad person. He knew that Boss would leave office but he needed to stay. He didn't want others to think that he was mad man. It was so frustrating. But he kept laughing. Then they all planned farewell party for Boss. He joined it. He took full interest in it. He arranged all. Then he finally went home. When he entered, he told his wife all. He started crying. His wife started to look scared too. His wife " Now how did we move ahead?" She was scared. She looked at their son's room. He was inside his room which had AC so he couldn't able to hear their discussion. She was happy about it. She didn't want him to hear this. He might get scared. Actually she didn't know how did he respond. It was so shocking for him too. Sameer's wife Tara " I don't understand how could your Boss left us so suddenly we were doing all he advised. Our son survived due to him. Why can't he take you to that office in which he is transferred to?" Sameer " Since he didn't want me there." " But why? You did all for him!!" Sameer took deep breath and said " Maybe he found better devotee there?" Tara " Why don't you call and discuss?" " No.. no Boss didn't like it. I don't want his anger towards us." Tara shivered with fear. Tara " True. It's okay if he didn't support us but we don't want his anger." Then for few seconds husband and wife kept quiet. Tara " We must do something to protect ourselves. We must find some way. We know very well that some evil is surrounding us from beginning with help of your Boss we cured it. I don't understand how could your Boss put us in such trouble?!! I mean I need to help regarding all." Sameer " I feel he didn't understand our situation!" She looked at him with confusion. Tara " He helped us still he didn't understand he is helping us?!!" Sameer started to feel angry. Tara was dragging issue questioning too much. " He just advised casually and it worked." " Are you suggesting that he never took it seriously himself?" " I think so after seeing his reaction when I suggest that I must join him. He didn't see it as needful thing. In fact he felt it was stupid thing to suggest." Tara felt so shocked. " So your Boss didn't consider you as his devotee." " No in fact he didn't consider himself as spiritual mentor." "What? I can't believe it." " I know it is hard to believe but it is true. He didn't feel that way about entire issue." Tara took deep breath and said " Then we must search for another spiritual mentor." " Yes but it is not easy. We need to find someone who understands our trouble." Tara nodded. She knew that it was going to be hard but they would surely manage. She smiled towards him. Tara "Don't worry. We will find someone." On that point their son Umesh came out of room. Umesh "What happened?" " Nothing important.." " Come on I am big enough to understand that you are tense about something." " Well!! Actually my Boss is going to leave town!!" Umesh looked shocked. Umesh " But he was use to give different ideas to us. We use to listen to him!! And everytime it worked. I even won my last football match due to his lucky charm. How could he just left us?!!" Sameer " He didn't look at things that way he felt that he was senior and I am junior that's all." Umesh looked upset too. It became clear to them Umesh had same faith towards Boss as they had. Umesh didn't want to lose their spiritual mentor. Then Umesh took deep breath and said " But we can't call him back so let's try another trick." " What?" " I feel I can find student of your same spiritual mentor." Umesh smiled and every one looked at him with shock.
Sameer " What are you talking about?" " I am talking about nephew of your Boss." Tara "He had nephew!!" " Yes he does and he is in my coaching class. " Tara " In your coaching class?" "Yes Mom he needed to study too. He needed to take degree too." His parents nodded in agreement. Sameer " You are right. He must take proper education. My Boss took it too." Umesh smiled. " I never told it to you since he is warned not to discuss this in public. They have one large society of spiritual leaders. They held discussion there regarding many subjects. Those discussions are special way of knowledge for him. He never told it to anyone except me. Since it was the one who survived by his Uncle. He saw it on my face. When I enter he immediately sensed it in fact he sensed dark shadow which following me too." Sameer shivered with fear. He didn't want to be scared but he was scared. He didn't like the way things were moving. He controlled himself again. " Are you sure that he was not fooling you? I am asking you since my Boss didn't mention him." Umesh suddenly became sad. He didn't say anything. " Actually your Boss was not going to take you ahead in spiritual journey." Sameer " But why?" " Since he hated you..he hated your progress in your journey. You are doing much better than him. He was not so happy about it." They both looked at him with shock. Until now Sameer had full faith on Boss but slowly it began to shatter. He began to doubt his Boss now. He started to feel confused. He looked at Tara. She was confused too. She didn't understand what was truth. She just kept watching Umesh with shock. Umesh smiled and said " I will bring him tomorrow." They nodded and went in room. As soon as Umesh sensed that they were out of sight, he started laughing. He was trying so hard to get money for bike for such a long time. But They were not giving anything to him. They always gave all to just Boss. It was irritating for him. But now he got opportunity to get all. He just needed one good actor and he knew that he could found him easily if he paid properly. But he also needed to confirm that he was not blackmailed afterwards. He decided that he must find proper person. He started to search in his friends. Then he suddenly remembered his girlfriend. He could trust her. She could do anything for him. He called her. She heard all. Mina "Well I really like this idea. We need to get some money. Your parents never give any and I can't keep demanding everytime from my parents. I have even searched for part time job but I don't see much option there. I think we must do some trick." " And they are going to get fooled by someone any way so why don't we try it? I mean finally it's my money." " True. So what did you want me to do?" " Well I told them their Boss's nephew is studying with me.." Mina screamed "But I am not boy. " " I know but you can dress like one?!!" Mina took deep breath and said " I hope this is just a joke!! Because I can't dress like boy!! I mean it is not as easy as shown in movie. I can't do it." " But.." Mina " I can't dress up like boy." Mina disconnected call. He sensed that he needed more help. He smiled and started searching for friends. Finally he began to doubt himself logic of his idea. Then he got another idea. He could do makeup himself. He smiled at this idea and got ready to call a friend from beauty parlour. This time he managed to get his help. His friend agreed to do it without much efforts. He needed to do it. He was happy that he could manage it without help of Mina. He decided that he didn't need Mina. He didn't want to waste his money. He happily went in his room. Sameer was so excited to meet his new spiritual mentor. He wanted to look perfect before him. He suggested Tara to cook tasty dishes for their mentor. He made everything perfect. On that day he saw a dream in which a light came which told him that he must not trust this spiritual mentor. He screamed and woke up. Tara was sleeping beside him but she was so sound asleep that this voice didn't manage to wake her up. He was so shocked. He didn't want to upset her sleep so he took deep breath and went to sleep. Next day Umesh came to them in morning and said his friend would come. But Sameer was sensing something was wrong. His dreams were telling him. He always had those dreams. He used to have faith on them. He used to follow every instruction in them. He wanted those dreams to be understood by his soul. It was happening now. He was glad about it. He was so happy regarding it. But he always kept it secret. He understood now that his mentor was not true mentor at all. His mentor was evil and he was ready to fight on each step. He went in kitchen drank glass of warm water. He always preferred drinking warm water. He didn't like cold one. He felt that it was carrying agent of evil. He hated it.That glass of cold water was sending shiver through his entire body. So he never touch it. He knew that after his Boss he didn't need mentor. He knew that he had that special strength in his body whole time. He could handle all. He smiled and decided that next day he was going to teach good lesson to that new mentor. He knew that this mentor was evil. He knew that he needed to teach big lesson to this Betrayer and he had many big plans for him. He smiled happily. He was planning to teach lesson to his guest tomorrow which his guest should remember for entire life. He began to feel so upset and angry. He started to shiver with anger. He was no longer scared. He was planning to fight back and teach lesson to that man. He didn't let that man harm him. He went back to sleep with full plan. He looked at Tara. She was sleeping peacefully. She was happy about it.
Next day Umesh prepared everything in perfect way. He needed to understand how did he supposed to arrange all. He took deep breath. First he couldn't create his duplicate so he needed to vanish from picture then he enter in it as nephew of Boss. He came running towards Kitchen. "Mom I have extra classes today so I can't come." Tara looked so upset. She asked with tense expression. " What about that boy?" " Tarun? " Tara looked at him with shock. He knew that her very well. She should love person with similar name like her. He carefully selected name. " What happened Mom?" " I want to meet Tarun today." Umesh pretended to look confused then said "Fine I will send him alone." " But how I recognise him?" " By his photo. I will send it." Tara smiled happily. Then Sameer entered in kitchen. Sameer smiled. Tara " Our new mentor Tarun is coming today." Sameer didn't like it but still he decided to pretend it's okay. Sameer wanted to see that mentor. He wanted to teach him lesson. Sameer smiled. " Great I will stay in house to meet him." He felt so sad. His wife was truly planning to keep faith on this mentor. He didn't want to break her heart but he knew that it was going to happen. He looked away. Then Umesh ran to college. He didn't attend it instead he went to makeup artist. He helped him in changing his face. He looked so different. He smiled happily. He clicked his own picture with makeup and sent it to his Mom. It was all perfect. Then he went in house. He was received with great respect by his parents. He was so happy. He kept talking about many spiritual visions which he viewed on you tube or read on Google. But suddenly Sameer took hold of his hand and took a knife. He was so shocked. Tara started screaming loudly. Sameer started to feel strange energy inside as if some power took over his body. He screamed " Who are you? Which sort of evil monster you are?!! Tell me your name or I will cut your hand" Sameer was holding his hand so tightly that he couldn't escape it. Umesh started to shiver. He took deep breath. He didn't understand how could his father identify him. It was so scary. He didn't want his Dad to cut his finger. He screamed " Dad it's me I was just joking!!" Sameer smiled. " I know all. I can see it in your face. You are lying." "No Dad I am not." Umesh started to remove makeup. Tara looked shocked and upset. Tara " I was not expecting this from you." Umesh felt that he might receive small punishment but it was over. He took back his hand. But when he was in half way, his Dad took hold again. " I know you are lying." " No I am telling truth." Tara was shocked too. Tara " He is our son." But Sameer screamed " He is not!! He is evil. We must punish him." He started to cut Umesh with knife on hand. Umesh screamed. Tara started screaming for help. Soon people started coming. She opened door. They all tried hard and controlled Sameer. But Sameer's screams were loud like some wild beast. Every one was scared. Few were suggesting to call Cops. Tara wanted to stop them but she didn't have option. She never sensed that something was so wrong with Sameer. She knew Umesh acted in wrong way but he was trying to cut his fingers with knife. She heard such stories only in horror books. She never thought people could actually do much horrible things. She never felt that anyone could cut other person's finger with knife. But before her eyes Sameer her husband was trying it. He was perfect yesterday. She didn't sense anything wrong in him except he was upset about his Boss. But she couldn't understand his change. She began to shiver. She sensed that evil was not in Umesh but it was in Sameer. She started to shiver. She began to remember worship they did. She was confused now. She was no longer so sure that his Boss suggested all. She looked at Sameer with shock. She understood all. His Boss suggested just few things of beginning. Then his Boss stopped it all. Sameer was suggesting all. Tara shivered. She was looking at horrible human. In fact he was no longer human at all. He was throwing around people to take hold of his injured son and trying to cut him. Umesh was running away. But he was in such a pain that he couldn't manage to get away. She was so scared. She hoped from heart that she didn't manage to cut his fingers. She didn't want to say anything. She didn't want to respond. She just wanted to keep looking at sky. Inside that house she couldn't see sky. But still she kept looking at ceiling. It seemed so better. She just wanted to look far away. She wanted to stay away from those crisis. Then suddenly one neighbour touched her shoulder in harsh way and said "What is this drama? Don't you have sense to send him in mental health care?!!" " But he was perfect few days ago. He was normal few hours ago. He was not like that." Another neighbour"We must start inject him something to put him to sleep. Those men can't keep controlling him like that his strength is not reducing but they are getting tired." " We must call someone who could handle." Those moments were horrible. Sameer was throwing people and Tara was trying hard to convince him to calm down. But he was out of reach for her. He couldn't hear any word. He was sure that there was something inside their son Umesh. He kept telling " This is not Umesh. This is evil still alive in him. He is no longer in body. My son is dead....my son is dead." Umesh was so shocked. He shivered with fear. He came near Tara. " Mom I was just trying to earn little extra money." Tara shivered and said " That is evil your Dad talking about it. We need wrong rituals. Devil is after us." Tara started crying loudly. She knew very well that Devil entered in their family and Devil would never left them.
Tara's neighbour was watching entire episode. In fact she was watching entire family for long time. She knew Tara for long time. Tara was use to be woman of sound and practical mind. But then slowly she began to get convinced. It started by sickness of Tara's son. Sameer was strange sort of man from beginning. He didn't like when Tara began to make friendship with anyone. At beginning this neighbour used to visit their house daily. But Sameer used to crirtisize Tara again and again before her Tara used to get nervous. It started to cause lots of trouble for Tara's mind. So Tara decided to avoid her. Neighbour sensed it. She didn't like it but she accepted her need. But when she started to hear chatting and different smells, she didn't like it. It was not normal. She began to feel so frustrated. She didn't like those smells. Those smells were creating worst effect on her mind. She began to feel so sick by them. One day she even told her daughter that she wanted to sell this flat. She wanted to avoid that smell. Her daughter told her to relax. They made those room AC. So those smells stopped from coming inside. She began to feel so stressed due to those rituals but when those voices stopped, she took breath of relief. She began to feel happy. But today when she watched entire scene, she sensed immediately that she must took some part in it. She must tell or advise on some point. She knew that it was mental trouble from beginning. She slowly came to conclusion that Sameer had some big mental trouble which was clearly hidden from Tara. But it started effecting Tara. She began to feel frustrated about it. She began to get upset about it. She thought that she needed to change it. She went ahead towards Tara and said " This is not evil spirit. This is mental trouble which managed to destroy many lives. " Tara looked at her with shock. Umesh also nodded. Umesh " I acted in wrong way but think about this with my view. Dad was wasting money on those strange articles without cause and not giving it to me. I know I demand too many luxuries but Mom those things were useless." Neighbour " But cheating your parents like that is crime. Why don't you suggest your Mom to go to Doctor?" " I tried but she never listen." Tara began to sense her mistake. She sensed that since Sameer was no longer in picture as supporter. She could see different impact on mind. Tara looked at Sameer. She had no doubt in mind that he was mad man. He told her every thing in wrong way and she believed it. She regretted it. But she took deep breath and said " Let's call Doctor." Neighbour nodded. She called psychiatrist. She described situation. He said that he would immediately sent ambulance. Tara started crying loudly. Every one just worked hard and finally tied Sameer to chair. They all waited for ambulance. Finally it came. Doctor injected Sameer with tranquilizer and put him to sleep. Tara went with him. Umesh joined too. In hospital Umesh received basic first aid. Psychiatrist heard it all. Then he took deep breath. " I feel Sameer had this trouble for long ago. He managed to hide it maybe by some medicines. I found some medicines in his pocket. But he is clearly not visiting psychiatrist for long time." Then psychiatrist observed them carefully. " Can I suggest something to you?" " Yes." " I feel you and your son need counseling too." Tara nodded. She was sensing something was wrong with her mind. She wanted to laugh and keep laughing. She nodded. They took away Sameer and Psychiatrist started chatting to Tara. He said he would discuss one by one with them. Umesh was relieved. He didn't want to confess before Mom so he waited outside for his turn.
The End
