3 NEXT KILL! (1/2)
”When I got a little near to the scene of accident, I saw four boys' bodies who's face, arms, legs and other bones were bent at a weird angle. The whole road was red with their blood. It smelled quite horrible so I just thought about getting out of there when I caught a glimpse of one of the face. It was...your friend, the one who had met us in the Parents Teacher Meeting last time. And if I'm not wrong, the other 3 boys were also your friends. One of them even had Rs200 caught tightly in his hands which were later received by the police who came by just a few moments later.”
As Saksham heard this, his heart almost jumped out of his throat. He suddenly felt a little cool in his back. He couldn't decide whether he should be happy about this news or creeped out.
Suddenly, there was a silence in the room for a second. Just then, Arjun cried out in pain. Saksham heard this shout and came back from his dilemma. He saw his mother pinching his father's waist. He saw Savitri saying angrily, ”Old man, not even entered the house properly and took off his clothes but telling these types of thing to our young son. What if he couldn't sleep at night? Would you go to his school tomorrow?”
Arjun also said angrily, ”He was eventually going to hear about this from someone else. And he is not a 3 year-old child who would still be scared of things like these.”
”So, can't you explain this in a better way that is not this bad?”
”How else do you want me tell this thing as? That 'Your four friends who we had met in the Parents Teacher Meeting had met their maker and now they will live happily ever after in the heaven.'?”
”Are you telling a fairy tale?”
”Then you tell me. How am I supposed to tell him?”
Seeing his parents bicker, Saksham couldn't help but smile wryly. He said, ”Can you two stop bickering? I am hungry. Let's have our dinner and then you could bicker all you want.”
Savitri stood up and once again pointed at Arjun and said, ”Look, due to your bad explanation, Saksham is feeling hungry now!”
Arjun almost did a somersault and spewed blood at this unreasonable statement. He weakly retorted, ”But this is just a biological sig-”
”Whoever bickers again with me is going to sleep empty-stomach today.” Savitri said as she entered the kitchen without even looking back.
This time, Arjun really shut his mouth honestly and went to his room silently. Looking at his father's lonely back, Saksham couldn't help but snicker quietly. There was not a single time when his father had won against his mother in bickering. He also heard his father whispering, ”How could woman be such an unreasonable creatures….”
Although he was not a believer a supernatural, but this incident couldn't help but let him doubt that. Saksham shook his head and once again concentrated on his studies thinking that this thing couldn't be true. But after some time, he once again couldn't help but think that if….if this indeed happened because of what he had said then.... wasn't that something very cool? Would that mean that he has gotten himself a super power?
Saksham thought for a while and decided to once again try this on someone else. He thought of many people he could try this on but thinking that if it really did come true then it would be bad if he kills an innocent person. So he tried to think of some very bad guys in the world. As he carefully recalled their names and wrote them down in his mind, he also recalled what and how he had said his words in the afternoon.
