My First Encounter with a ghost

Do You Believe In Ghosts?

No, I Don't!

Yes, I Do!

No, I Don't!

Yes, I Do?

They Don't Even Exist

Yet, They Do Exist!

this was the conversation that was going through between two people when I entered a saloon, it was a wonderful Sunday evening, the weather was just awesome, the sun was sinking slowly and slowly in the sky leaving a beautiful tint of orange, the sky was looking just like a perfect painting created by an artist. it was just a normal Sunday evening for me when I went for a regular haircut to the saloon. but I never knew this was not an ordinary Sunday for me.

I jumped into the conversation happening between two people over there and added humorous replies to that conversation if you meet next time a ghost ask them for their phone number so that we can call them and fix a meeting with them hahaha haha, the hall was full of lots of laughter, and everyone enjoyed, no one put importance to the conversation that was happening previously, but everyone jumped into the conversation and the environment just become so happening over there.

after some time my number came for the haircut, I explained the kind of cut I am looking for and I took. a haircut.

the barber asked. "how's the cut, sir?

I replied! perfect.

he said thank you, sir! with a smile on his face!

I paid at the counter and started to leave for my home, it was already 8:30 in the evening. I started my car and started the ride, the conversation was going in my head which I just listen in the saloon, it felt me made uneasy don't know why I decided good music and a long ride can change up my mood so I took to turn the outskirt highway.

loud Indian music pleasant weather, lonely roads, what else is required for a perfect long drive. I started enjoying my ride and slowly and slowly that conversation was going out of my mind I was enjoying the beats. nothing can make the environment more pleasant when suddenly rain started, it was making the perfect environment to enjoy my long drive. the rain started to get heavier, then I decided a lot of rides has been done now I should reach my home asap. it was already 10:00.

suddenly, a sound came broom, I heard it what was that, I ignored it, the sound started to get heavier, from my car, but I was in no mood to stop my car and look what was the actual problem as it was raining very heavily outside, Few things are out of your control . after 10 minutes my car stopped, I tried much time it doesn't start, I was middle of a road seeing no person as it was quite late now and rain was getting heavier and heavier, finding out no mechanic.

I called the breakdown service of my car company they replied sir we will toe you car tomorrow morning right now we don't have staff to give you the services.

A loud sound came from the sky of the thunderstorm, The light was flashing in the sky, suddenly I saw a rickshaw coming towards me, I asked him to stop, he stopped, I asked him to take me to my address he said yes, I locked the car and boarded the rickshaw. The journey started, he was singing a different kind of Melody which was soothing to the ears but I was not able to understand the lyrics of it. a few minutes later

I asked him what his name?

He replied Mohan!

He asks me a few questions?

I answered & vice versa.

suddenly, he asked me the same question?

which was the hot topic of discussion earlier in the evening.

" Sir, do you believe in ghosts?"

I replied no I don't he said sir you should, they exist!

I asked him, ok tell me one thing?

yes sir please ask? he replied.

How can I identify them? I asked.

he replied sir it is very simple sir, they sing a beautiful melody.

I replied sarcastically haha haha!

Any other characteristics that I can look for?

he replied they have a one common thing

I asked what?

he replied, their feet are in reverse directions in comparison to normal people

I said again in a humorous manner, hahaha?

He turned back and smiled looking at me, this was not the normal smile it was a completely different one, something was not right my heart started to beat faster, something was not good which my mind was feeling.

Suddenly l turned my vision towards his foot paddling out the rikshaw, he was having reverse foot just like he told me earlier and singing that melodious beat. now my heart started to pump even faster I was wordless, the fear was flowing in my bloodstream.

I jumped from the rickshaw and started running even don't dare to look back at that person, I was running at the maximum speed I can, it was almost midnight. somehow I took the courage to look back at that person I can't see him anywhere, I keep on running and after few minutes I reached my home.

I can't express to my parents what I was feeling at that moment, my heart was pumping at the max, that day I can't forget my whole life because it was the only day that was my first encounter with a ghost.
