Everything other

It's a joke many times in many homes. There's even no concept of it in some. The problem is not in generations, even the new generation don't realize it until and unless they themselves go through the same irrespective of generations. So it's down to one important problem that is 'people don't take it seriously if they are not in the same situation'. It branches out to other sub problems like, peoples don't put the morals and ethics to daily life. They will learn it, think about it for some time, even tell others to do it but won't do it themselves. They don't realize if they are hurting someone until it's too late. They don't realize that everyone is different and some things are not applicable to many even if that is accepted by the society and it hurts inside. Even if there is physical freedom to some extent but mental freedom is really necessary for it's health and maybe that's the true freedom one can seek. And yeah hurting others is not part of freedom, it's of domination. Mental freedom is hindered by 'unnecessary judgment' and 'lacking essentials(like money and morals)'. 

But also there's the fact that this is 'life'. It will hurt, there will be darkness and that's the point. They are necessary. Or else the 'good' and the 'light' will be meaningless without them. Giving up is easy, not the freedom or peace or solution. 

One should put oneself in other's situations to understand them. This would be the first step towards peace. Mental peace, freedom will take time to achieve with many scars. After all every great things takes time. Time is the payment for greatness. 

It's like a black hole with the event horizon being the point of time from where it's not curable. I have seen what stress and problems it causes to the victim and family. It just pulls slowly towards death.

It mentally disturbs the entire family. They just live with the hope of some miracle. Many would give up or try to give up for the sake of their family and it's kinda okay from their perspective but the ones who will live with it, it will be hard for them because they didn't give it their all to cure. If one is suffering from it then the closed peoples are tied with it too. It's hard to recover and it's very hard not to give up but we have to.

We gotta try at least, maybe miracles will happen. Even if it doesn't and death is inevitable then that death has some meaning. Regrets won't be clinging to that death. Fight, fight and fight. That's all we can do and should do.Title isn't a joke, this net really works. Many fake lifestyles and peoples are trying to manipulate and make a fool of one another. Can't fully trust someone now. Hypocrisy, wrong info are major waves in the ocean of social networks.

They will force their ideas and beliefs on others. They will tell others what everyone should like, dislike, think, good, bad to satisfy their own ego. If beliefs and thinking are not matching then there will be fights among each other, empty criticism and insults.

For some, it really affects their mental health and it won't change soon. Peoples can flip sides at any moment with just a little push. Without knowing facts they will believe anything or anyone or do anything and when truth is unveiled in front of them then they will do the opposite to prove their innocence. They are just at their own side. They don't care about anything else, it's just to show that they and their beliefs are good. Damn, it seems that unfortunately joker's dialogue is getting more relatable day by day I.e. "When the chips are down, these civilized people, they will eat each other ". 

So if someone is reading this then don't just learn the morals, put that to work every moment of life.

Peoples see the situations from their perspective only and that's the issue. Everyone's problems and thoughts are different. It's different, but that doesn't make it wrong.

They decide on their own that something is right or wrong, normal or not and won't even try to understand other's decisions. Their ego and selfish nature won't allow to understand others. Someone who has everything and Someone else who has nothing, surely will have different ideas and beliefs. Someone who works and Someone who doesn't, Someone who sees and Someone who doesn't will say different things about the situation from their perspective. World is slowly getting sucked into chaos because of differences, ego and lack of understanding. Unless one backs down and let the other one stand with ego, everything will continue to get worse but how much one will endure for peace? How much one has to back down? How much one understands the truth and still has to be quiet?

It's a hard thing to understand the others and their perspective. Because it's hard, it will take courage to put down one's ego and selfish nature in front of the truth. Otherwise after sometime we won't be...human at heart.It has different levels with the highest I.e. the Selfless. It's really difficult being completely selfless towards anyone within any relationship. Nowadays it's very rare. Probably it's not even possible now with lust, wanting fame or not wanting disgrace, money, power, fear of society, attention or any selfish desires in almost everyone's heart. Time is changing rapidly and the past is taking all the selfless and good with it. We might be emotional and blind or society is telling not to see it but reality is different.

Selfish desires are there. some has more, some has less but it's there. But in some relationships, the desires are not completely wrong if we see through their eyes, they can't just resist it and it's not their fault too. Slowly real love is fading away from this world of burning desires. It's our choice either to burn in the fire and be nothing or become the air and finally be free. Choose wisely.

Then the lower level of "the selfless" can be the selfish. It's where majority of peoples fit in. From desires and satisfaction of choices breeds love. It goes on until the choices are satisfied. Then slowly it gives up and try to chase after someone who can fulfill it's desires. They will tell lies to fulfill it so think logically and carefully. When time flies then we can get more attached to even that selfish love and when they won't continue then it will hurt more.

So now in this selfish love world, maybe having some ego would be fine. It will act as a defense mechanism for own mental peace. It can help control the mental sanity and won't let chase after selfish love. I know ego isn't a good thing and can destroy but sometime it's necessary evil. For example, someone you love isn't loving you back then if you don't have ego then you will keep chasing after them and mental peace can be destroyed.

The third level can be the forced. When someone forces you to love them back. Influence your thoughts so it's not really natural love. Or take advantage of your situation to change your feelings in favor of them. Be careful about it. Extreme selfishness can be found so it can be dangerous for you.

Note: it's only the outer layers. Let's not go into more depth. 

Mother

"Wh...what's that?"[panting]. I woke up in the morning because I heard horrible screams. I couldn't find heena and our baby anywhere in the home. I rushed outside and saw that some parts of the village was burning. "I...can't move". My heart was beating faster and hundreds of thoughts crossed my mind in an instant. I ran towards a well near the fire and there was our baby on ground. "Thank Goodness you are okay my baby"[sobbing]. I immediately got her home and came back for heena. There was a crowd near the lake shouting and throwing rocks at someone. "Let me through, let me through". She was there in the lake, crying and bleeding. I hugged her and covered her with my shirt. "stop, it wasn't on purpose, she couldn't do anything about it. Please understand". "She is the only one to blame, peoples are injured because of her. Can't you hear the heart wrenching screams?" villagers said. "We are sorry, hurting her won't do anything". "Kill her, if she remains alive then the fire will engulf us soon. Yes killing her is the solution now" one of them said. "Our family is living here for so long with good relations and that's how you treat us for an unintentional mistake??? How can you say that?". "Son, you have to understand their fear. As long as she is here no one is safe, even your child. So you can move to an open place and start a new life" an old man said. "Fine, we will do that. Now let us go". Peoples stared at us for some time and went to their home but that old man stayed. "I have never heard someone having fire power, I was very surprised. Go home and take care son" he said. I helped her to stand and we walked away. "How's my baby? Where is she?"[sobbing] Heena asked. "Don't worry dear, she is good". "I was so worried. I was on my way home after a walk and it happened suddenly so I put her on the ground and ran here. I didn't know what else to do at that moment" she said. "Everything is fine now so don't cry". We got home and heena immediately ran to our baby and hugged her. "I'm so glad you are doing fine baby"[sobbing] she said. "Yeah, I found her near the fire but miraculously she wasn't hurt so I think she is really special born from a special woman"[smiling]. I hugged both of them and we got rest for some time. "Dear, what do you think about moving on from here?". "We should go, it happens randomly so we can't take the risk. Maybe we should go tomorrow morning" she said. "Yes you are right. I don't even want to see their faces. After all this years with them happily, maybe they were selfish from the beginning. We couldn't see that". It was the last night there for us. We had dinner and went to sleep. Next morning I woke up and saw hiyanshi sleeping, I smiled and kissed her on forehead but I couldn't find heena anywhere. I searched for her in and outside the house but couldn't find. Eventually I found a note in the house. It was from heena. "I'm sorry dear, you have to take care of our baby yourself. I'm going away and please don't try to find me. I'm doing this not because of the villagers but for you two. I can't risk both of your lives whom I love so much. I love you both, thank you for being a great father and husband. Thank you for loving me. Goodbye " she wrote. I cried holding the window, watching the rising sun and thinking "we could have done something about your power maybe tried to control it, I'm sorry I can't be there for you when you need me the most, I'm sorry. There's no point in living here now without you". I packed some of our important stuff and moved to a different place with hiyanshi. I could understand a fraction of heena's pain after taking this decision so I respected her choice and didn't tried to find her. 

Years passed and hiyanshi was 3 now. It was tough watching after her but i was managing barely. After all I'm not her mother and I could never replace her. I missed heena everyday and would sometimes wake up from same nightmares again and again. It was so weird. In that dream hiyanshi was a bit older and drawn a painting of heena and was scratching over her with red paint. I was so afraid of those dreams. I hoped she is fine wherever she was. One day I was doing some work at home and someone knocked the door. "Yeah I heard you, wait I'm working here". After 2 min I opened the door and there were two men outside. Well dressed, good behavior they seemed gentlemen. "Who are you two?why are you here?". "Are you mr. nayanth? Is mrs. Heena your wife?" One of them asked. "Why do you want to know and why do you know my wife? Tell me the truth now who are you really?". One of them said "Look sir, I'm gonna get straight to the point. If we don't do something soon then the sun would set forever". "What do you mean the sun would set forever?". I was so confused. "We will tell you everything, first can we come in please?" One of them said. "Ok fine, come on sit down". "I'm braun lock and this is my younger brother shiki lock. We know the truth of this world" braun said. "I don't understand, what truth?". "We know why moms develop such powers and how it started" Shiki said. "What? Really? How did you know?". "Our family has been passing down this information through generations. We haven't told anyone else yet because first, there's no point in telling others and second, we don't want to cause any panic" braun said. "Oh ok then why are you willing to let me know?". "Simple, it involves you that's why" shiki said. "Go on, I'm listening". "Its all happening because of too much hate of a human. He was born fifteen hundred years ago. He lived with his mother. Everything was fine, his mother treated him well but one night when he was just nine years old, she told him that 'I am sick and tired of pretending that I care for you, no I hate you. You are just a result of your father's assault, I hate both of you. I only raised you because that man was here. I wish I could cut both of you into pieces but he ran away with another woman so its going to be you and I am not a little bit sorry, I didn't even considered any of you my family to begin with'. She tried to kill him but somehow he escaped. He was all alone and grew hate towards her. After one year he became ill and couldn't survive that illness. After death he met the devil in purgatory. He was so filled with hate that he asked for all of this so that everyone can suffer. 'This kind of high level spell I requires payment' devil said. 'Everything, I offer you anything you want, just do it' he said. Devil smiled and did it" braun said. "Nice story but how do you know that and doesn't that person has a name?". "After that incident god sent a messenger to earth. He United six people and told them everything. They scattered around the world and passed this to their children. He said that god has erased his name from history after what he did and made a prophecy that after many years one mother would be granted the power of the sun and she can beat the devil. And your wife has that power" shiki said. "Why her? Anyone else may have that power". "Have you ever heard of someone having that? No, there's no record of a mom having fire power" shiki said. "No no I can't risk her life, leave her alone". "You don't get it, do you? Your wife can beat the devil and this curse will be over, think about your child. She doesn't have to go through the same suffering" braun said. I can't argue with that. I don't want hiyanshi to suffer. "But, I don't know where heena is". "We have done our research and found her. Your home was on the way so we stopped by. We are going there tomorrow. Our mother died because of this curse so we want to end this, with or without you. If you want to come then be prepared. We should go now" braun said. "Alright I will. I want to end this too, for our child". The next morning I finished my work and prepared to go with hiyanshi. It has been three years since I saw heena. "I am so eager to meet her but all the things those two said, if that's true then I'm more worried about my family than fixing the issue of the past". Two brothers came early in the morning with horses for the ride. "I see you are ready to go" braun said. "Yeah she will need me". We started our journey. "How did you know where heena is living?". "We have many friends and the power she has is really unique so words travel fast" shiki said. "Where is she?". "She is living on a small mountain. Out of fear peoples don't go there. We will reach there tomorrow evening" shiki said. I was sitting behind shiki with hiyanshi and he was riding the horse. "We have to find a place for tonight. Its not wise to travel at that time" braun said. We saw a river and decided to stay at the bank during the night. Shiki was really tired so he went to sleep. Braun and I started talking. "You said yesterday that your mother is the reason you are doing this, so what happened?". "When I saw my mother for first time that I remember she already had wrinkles on her body. Then we come to know that she was ageing faster than normal. When we were just eight she was in her death bed. We couldn't do anything to save her. After sometime our father told us everything about the past. When we heard about your wife, we decided that we will do everything we can to destroy this curse" braun said. "I'm so sorry about your mother. That must have really hard". He remained silent for sometime. "Let's get some rest, tomorrow we will meet the sun" braun said. "Ok good night". Next afternoon we stopped because horses were hungry. "I have a question. Do you know how to find the devil?". "We know the ritual to summon him into this world. When he will show up your wife has to fight and burn him" shiki said. "It seems very simple. Isn't he supposed to be powerful and full of tricks?". "We have to support her in every way to win this" braun said. Finally we reached the mountain. There were many burning marks. We climbed to the top and we saw an open area where ashes were blocking the twilight sun. We searched the surrounding area and found that heena was sleeping under a tree. It brought tears in my eyes. Her clothes were in bad condition. Some bruises on her body and she couldn't even build a small house because of the curse. She woke up and saw us. She was surprised and happy. She was just stared at hiyanshi for sometime and she was aboutto cry. "Why are you here? I told you not to search for me. All this time I tried but couldn't control it. Please dear you have to stay away" heena said. "Please listen what these two have to say. Its really important for you and our daughter". We walked towards her. Two brothers introduced themselves and said everything to her. "If this can ensure safety of my child then I'm ready to fight" heena said. "Alright then we will start the ritual now. It will take some time so wait a little longer" braun said. She was controlling herself not to touch any of us specially her child. But hiyanshi walked towards her and when she saw her daughter so close she started crying and hugged her. Suddenly she coughed blood and she was about to collapse. I was shocked and ran to hold her and saw that a thick piece of wood had pierced her heart. "Help braun, shiki help. We need to take her to a doctor". I carefully took out that wood. They both came in a hurry. "Heena don't worry you wi--" she stopped me. "no dear, I can feel I'm... dying. I'm sorry I...couldn't fight...for our baby. I...love you both...so much" she said. "No don't say that. You made me a father I'm forever grateful to you. Hey you two, help me take her to a doctor hurry please we need to save her". Hiyanshi stood up suddenly and her voice was weird. "Do you know the most exciting thing in the world? Its playing with feelings and idiotic emotions of you humans. Why should I even fight fairly with someone who has the power to kill me? Now my will is absolute" devil possessed hiyanshi said. She lost consciousness after that and heena was in my arms. I was screaming and crying a lot. "There is no reason for living now. We lost everything" braun said. 

My story

 "You are so sad." I just heard this and moved away from the waterfall. Who is there? Who is talking to me? There was no answer. I was scared, I thought it was ghost. I am misani. I am a seventeen year old girl living in a small house outskirts of the country. Its been two months since I lost my mother because of cancer. My father died in an accident after some months of my birth. Due to this mom got depressed and started consuming alcohol very much. There's no one in this woods except me now. Everything is here but not my parents. Sometimes I hallucinate them and I can't get over their deaths. One day I was sitting under the waterfall hoping its pressure would crush me and I heard a voice. I got scared but it was quiet when I moved from there. Then again I sat there and it said "don't worry, I am water. I can feel you are very sad." How is this possible? How can you talk to me? "Its just a gift of nature." Have you talked to anyone else? "Yes very rarely but not in this era. I can talk to anyone who is unique and great." How am I great? I couldn't even stop my mom from getting sick. "It was meant to happen, no one could stop that. I know what you are thinking. Its okay to grieve but not your whole life. You have the potential to do great things." How could you know about me or anyone? "I am almost everywhere on this earth and I have all the memories of this earth." If you are this special then can you return my parents? "I am not the one who took them so no I can't. You have to fight and you are not alone. Your life, spirit and nature is with you." What am I supposed to do? I don't know anything. Don't have any goal. "This universe has a strange way to lead the way, but one day it will and you will hear its whispers." I am hungry now. I am going to eat something. 

I went in the woods in search of food. Suddenly one branch of tree fell and it was too late for me. I closed my eyes and after one second I was thrown away. I screamed and ran towards my house. I shut the door and stayed inside. "Its alright, you are safe now." It was voice of water. You can talk to me like this too? And did you saved from that branch? How did you? "I am sorry my child, I lied to you. I am....your father." I burst into tears. Why did you lied? Why did you leave us so early? I didn't even saw you in real. "I am sorry for everything my sweetheart. Forgive me." But how are you here? It's been so long you have gone. Why didn't you came earlier? "I am from the past, before I died." What do you mean? "Now I am astral projecting and after sometime I will return to my body where I am alive." But how can you do it? I thought it's only a myth. And if you know about your death then why don't you stop it and live? "Yes at first i thought it was a myth too but i tried very hard and now here i am. No dear my death is meant to happen, if I stop that then there will be consequences we cannot handle. If you try then you can do it too." I thought soul can go anywhere but not any time. "We never know until we try. Now it's time for me to go." You are leaving me again? "You will do great things, I am glad I met you. I will be watching over you always. Goodbye my dear."

 Yo, what's up? I am misaki. I am a 18 year old girl and blah blah blah. You don't need to know the details now. Let's just start the story. I was on my way to the cliff near my house. There was ocean below the cliff and a great view too. Every evening I come here and remember my father here. Yes he died on this spot. Who is that? Someone was there before I came today. Usually no one likes to come here because there were many deaths before. Oh its you Ellie, what are you doing? "Nothing, I was just enjoying the sunset." She is my friend so I sat down and we started talking. "You come here every evening right?" Ya the ocean engulfs my sorrow hahaha. "Huh very funny, don't you get scared?" Scared of what? The shinigami, according to rumors? I hate dying, even if it's real I won't go down easily. But why are you here all of a sudden? "Did you finished the assignment that teacher gave us?" She didn't answer my question, as if she is hiding something. No it's not finished yet. I don't understand why are we even doing those assignments? After checking, it's all going to be in dustbin. Stupid system we have. "Ya you are right but we can't do anything really." We talked and don't know when time passed so fast and it was night. "Hey it's late now, let's go back. I don't want the shinigami to take my life." Alright let's go. When we turned back to go, we saw a man. He was covered in blood and walking towards the edge of the cliff. We were shocked. "What's he doing? It seems as if he is in someone else's control." Hey man can you hear me? We can call somebody to help. He didn't answer. We were going back slowly without making a sound. He stood at the edge for a minute and looked at the bright moon and just jumped. We got scared and were trembling at that moment. How can he do something like this? "Run, I am not feeling good now so let's go please." We ran as fast as we could and got out of there. We reached my home and still we were in shock. "What just happened? Misaki, you know I heard that everytime when someone dies there, there was blood in that area and they jump into ocean. It can't be any coincidence that everyone dies in the same way." Yes I know that ground took many people's blood. Listen stop thinking about that now and go to your home. I know after seeing all that you can't but please try to sleep. I was scared so I know how she must be feeling. "Okay let's meet tomorrow, bye." She left and I entered my home. My mother and big brother were waiting for me to have dinner. Brother was 22 years old. I couldn't tell them anything. I had my dinner silently and then I try to sleep but I couldn't. That man jumping and my father's face are the only things I was thinking. 

I woke up next morning. Don't know when I fell asleep. I finished my work and after sometime Ellie was here. She was upset. "Good morning. How are you feeling today?" Ya not to worry. What about you? You look a little upset. Is it because of yesterday? You can tell me anything . "I couldn't sleep at night. It was too scary and hey someone else died this morning there. I heard on my way here." Leave it. It makes me sick knowing about death. I couldn't blame her it was really scary for me too. Why are you upset and I think yesterday you were hiding something right? She was silent. I could tell its serious. "Okay to be honest, some days ago my boyfriend asked me some of my private pictures. At first I felt awkward and he said he won't talk if I didn't so i send it. And now he is kind of indirectly blackmailing me." What? Are you crazy? As soon as he demanded it you should have blocked and broke up. Why did you even send it? "For 4 years we are together but he never asked it, I don't know what happened now." You fool he was just gaining your trust these years. Its not love it's just lust. Did you tell your parents? "No am scared to tell them about this. My father is very strict." When you need something why do you tell your parents then? They deserve to know this and they can solve this too. Okay first let's tell my brother and some of our trusted friends. We all will go and tell your father. Don't worry it will be alright. 

 We told everything to my brother kimasha. "What the hell? That's so cheap work. Let's go ellie." Brother said. We gathered some of our friends and went to ellie's place. We told her parents everything. As expected, they got angry on ellie but after some moments their love for her got the better of them and they agreed to take legal action. Then they went to police. Ellie and I stayed together there and everyone else went home. No need to be worried ,your parents will do everything they can to solve this. She was a little bit happy now. We talked and it was almost evening. Her parents returned and said that police is taking care of it. That was a relief for us. I said bye to ellie and went home. Mother was doing some work but brother was not here. I thought he came back home. I helped mother with her work then I went to the cliff. Surprisingly bro was there. What are you doing here bro? Where were you? You didn't came home. "Nothing I was just thinking about father. The way he died, the woman who falsely accused him of misbehave and he couldn't handle it and killed himself." Why are you even thinking about that? That time is gone and we should move on bro. "You also can't forget that. Every day you come here. Can you change?" I don't know but why all of a sudden you are telling me this? What happened? "Its not easy to do anything against that boy. His family is rich and powerful. I went along with ellie's parents to the police. Everything went well and we were on our way home. That boy and his friends came. They didn't have the courage to face her parents so they threatened me. They will hurt ellie if I don't die so that it can breakour will to go against them." My heart was beating faster and tears came out. I grabbed him and said, no bro if this is true then let's go and face them. Death is not the solution and there is no guarantee that they will leave her after this. "I have no choice, their peoples are spying on me so I have to do it." But why? Why do you want to sacrifice yourself? Do you...love her or anything? "No its not that. But if she get hurt because of me then I can't forgive myself. And please tell mother and everyone else that I am missing, not dead. Ellie can't handle this. I am sorry and goodbye sis." He said this and pushed me then jumped. I was broken and cried on and on there. 

Few days passed. I told everyone that bro is missing only. Ellie and my friends helped me to find him. Ellie was very frustrated about all this because it was going on for too long and there was no result of the case. She changed from an innocent girl to a girl who can fight for herself with her loved one's support. She was concerned about bro too as he helped her a lot. Mother was crying day and night and me, well I hated death even more. One evening I was on my way to the cliff and saw that someone was sleeping there. I couldn't tell who was there from distance but when I came closer then saw that ellie was beaten and was bleeding too much. She wasn't dead but she was close to. I rushed to her quickly and tried to wake her up but she didn't responded. I hated myself that I couldn't prevent my father or brother's death and now it's my friend. I was helpless and I thought that if really there is a shinigami here then help me please. There started a black flame in front of me. And a voice said that "she will die if you don't trade anything in return equal to her life." Then take those life who hurt her. "Their lives are not owned by you so I can't take it. I know you hate dying but you have to accept the truth." I thought what should I do. I can't die now, but she will die if I don't. "You don't have much time to think." Alright you win. Take my life and return her. "Are you sure about this? It's the end that you are asking." Yes do it. I can't let my bro's blood go in vain and I believe in her, she won't give up ever. And please make disappear my body, I don't want her to feel that guilt and pain. "You are brave, girl." Can you return my father and brother? "Yes I can but you have give two life in return, can you do it?" No I was just asking. If they became alive then there will be no point of death. I am accepting the whole truth now. I thought that, hear me brother I am changing too and I am moving on. As tears rolled down my eyes I said the shinigami to do it. "Okay as you say, girl."

Stories

 "She is so beautiful", Heena said as tears rolled out of her eyes. She was seeing our new born girl few minutes after giving birth. I was sitting beside her with happiness beyond words and also in some corner of my heart there was a little fear. I am Nayanth and Heena is my better half. After some time I forgot about the fear. How could I be bother by that when both of them were in front of me alive and healthy? Then we finally decided to name her Hiyanshi. That day went extremely well and after finishing every work we went to sleep. Again that thought entered my head while sleeping. This is a world where after giving birth, mothers would be granted with some strange abilities by some unknown deity or whatever, I don't know. Some centuries ago, it started. Some people say that it's a blessing for humanity, but I believe that it's a curse. Like the demon is playing with us out of his boredom. I have heard and seen many cases where moms were granted terrifying abilities. Harmful for themselves and their families. After seven days of birth of baby those abilities could be felt or simply, can be used. I heard one case where one mom was exhaling only poisonous gases so for everyone's safety she killed herself and the gases stopped immediately or else everyone in her surrounding would be dead after few moments. I can't imagine the pain she must have gone through to kill herself. I guess she had a kind heart.When the world grows more power there are always peoples who exploit or tries to take control over one another. One life becomes threat to another in direct or indirect way. Some peoples are there who are longing for this powers to paint the earth with flames. I really don't want Heena to develop such cursed abilities. I feel powerless as I can't do anything to change the fact that after seven days she won't be just a mom who would love her baby but also she has to adjust with her abilities. She is not excited for this, she just want to take care of her baby. Next day she did her work like usual but she was very calm. Like she was thinking about all this but wouldn't let me worry about it. In night these endless thoughts would have me awake as if the devil himself is staring at me. Sometimes she would wake up from nightmares and I did everything I can to support her but it was tough seeing her like this. And then it was Saturday, the day before the fateful day. When I woke up in the morning, she was already awake and seeing baby's face and thinking something. Her eyes were filled with love's sorrow. It was painful to see her like this but I had to help her. With a kiss on the forehead her emotions were leaning towards light. Like me, she was also worried but she wasn't weak. We had to go through this time together and we did. She wasn't talking much that day but her eyes were speaking a lot. She was determined to stay by her family whether the situation permits or not. With this it was Sunday morning...

 "Hey listen, we shouldn't stay here after dark" Naman said. Yes I agree with you buddy. There's no one else here besides the two of us. If any spirit comes then we can't even get help in time, I said in a funny tone. "Ya right man" he said. We were not very serious about this though. And where is Saathvik? Why didn't he came today? I asked. "He is going to market but no worries, he will come tomorrow." he said. I am Mehvish and we three are best friends. Both of their families were staying in one building so he knew about Saathvik. Now we are on the roof of an incomplete one storey building in the middle of a field. We three come here every afternoon to chit chat but never stayed here after dark. Its roof was broken so we could see the rooms and windows beneath us and there were plants also as this was an old structure. After sometime it was nearly dark and don't know what got into me but I said to stay here. He asked why? I said just this once okay, just 5 or 10 minutes after sunset and we will go. He said alright and we stayed. There were no lights but very less were coming from the streets. "Did you hear something?" He asked. There are plants man and some insects must be there so relax. He saw one window and called me. "What's that near the window?" Wait let me see with the mobile torch. Don't know but it seems kind of a person. We got scared. "Let's get out of here, run run" he said in a hurry. I clicked one picture and ran from there. When we reached the street then we saw the picture but there was nothing really. Just a very dark room's window. Maybe we imagined. "I am sure I saw something, it was not clear but still" he said in bit confusion tone. Ya I thought so too but I don't know, let's get there tomorrow all three of us. "Okay bye be careful on your way home" he said in a caring tone.

We three went there next afternoon. Saathvik was denying both of us and said that it was our imagination. We went in that room and also every room and then went to the roof but there was nothing. Saathvik said that its daytime now there won't be any problem so let's try ouija board once, if something is really here then it will contact us. We agreed because it was not dark. There were many bricks on the roof so we used them to make a ouija board on the roof and used a cap of a bottle to move. We placed our fingers over the cap. "If anyone is here then please give us a sign" Saathvik said. There was no movement of the cap. He repeated many times but there was nothing. "Leave it, this process needs too much concentration so we can't do it like this" Saathvik said. No one came so we didn't bother to say goodbye. They both said to stay here after dark and we stayed and  started to gossip over some other topics. Finally it was dark but nothing supernatural was there but still, we got scared. I felt something was wrong and we ran outside the building. "You both go there and see if anyone is there and if something happens then run quickly" Saathvik said. Why we should go? You have to come with us too or else we are not going. "Ya right he is scared so he is thinking of his safety" naman said. "No you fools, I will stay outside because if something happens to you then i can call for help so go and stay for two minutes and come back" he said. We started walking with fear. Naman asked to play some prayer in mobile that will help. I played and we went near the entrance. But still we didn't have the courage to enter. But he was shouting from behind to go inside. I said if you are not coming then shut up. Then we entered and he played some songs so that we get distracted. We stayed for one minute and that song was no help. We both got scared and ran outside. "What happened did you see anything? He asked us. No but it's scary inside. "Yes if we are going then you come with us for once, let's go one more time" naman said. He agreed and we went inside playing songs and prayers. We all entered and both naman and I went ahead but Saathvik ran outside. We thought he saw something so we also ran. "Its scary, guys let's go home" Saathvik said. "That's what we were saying you idiot" naman said. They told me to be careful on the way. And then we went home.

I reached home and everything was normal as usual. There was no fear inside me as soon as we ran outside that building. That night after dinner I went to bed. I like to play songs while sleeping. After one hour my parents and everyone in my neighbor's were asleep. There was silent and no light. Suddenly I felt that someone is watching me. I got a little scared and turn on light. There was nothing so I turn it off. After passing seconds I felt more strongly that there is someone. That fear would not let me sleep. My heart was beating faster. I was trying to get distracted by thinking something else but it didn't help. This continued for hours and I think after 3 am I was asleep. Again next day we went there. I didn't say anything about my experience of that night to any of them and they didn't said anything too. Again we tried to enter the building after sunset but our fear got the better of us. Again I couldn't sleep that whole night. After sunrise when sunlight would pass through my window then I would feel safe and go to sleep. We repeatedly went there for ten days and I couldn't sleep at night. After that we didn't met for days and didn't went there and surprisingly I slept well those nights. When we met after some days then Saathvik said "let's not go there today". And then I finally told them about my night experience then they both said those nights were scary for them too. "guys, I noticed that when we went there only those nights were scary for me not the other nights when we didn't go" naman said. Yes you are right I felt it too. "Hey do you remember that we didn't said goodbye after finishing the ouija board? Maybe something really came that day and we didn't know so that's why we couldn't sleep at night" Saathvik said. Then let's stop going there it's not worth it. We agreed and didn't set foot near that that building for years. I still don't know what felt those nights. I don't know if its real or imagination. 

Dhaakad teaser | My thoughts

The action looks great in the teaser. It looks different from many hindi action movies because it clearly shows the reality of 'fight to death' scenes with brutality. I love how they used colors in some scenes. After watching it, expectations are high. I hope it delivers, not just with action but also with a great story. 

Note: it's only my thoughts and if you don't agree then it's fine. Calm down, world isn't ending. 

One piece | chapter-1044 review

There are great reveals in this chapter. Finally we know the real name of luffy's DF I.e. hito hito no mi or human human fruit (model- nika). It's a mythical zone type fruit. Wow so much patience of Oda for keeping this secret for 20+ years. Now luffy can change his surroundings into rubber. Orochi is annoying and opportunistic as usual. It's great that Hiyori is finally putting an end to him. Kaido is shocked seeing luffy alive and there's an epic fight between both of them. This chapter had so much hype before it's release and it delivered on that. But also there are more questions now. Maybe that will be answered in future. Let's wait and watch how oda handles all this luffy's fruit being special and all. If it's interesting, different than other stories and is epic then it's fine for me even if oda uses some used tropes.
