THE DEVIL KILLER PHONE ( PART 8) : A HORROR SHORT STORY bY ME.

Father David regained his composure after his initial shock on seeing Meenal entering the cafe. He urged Vijay to duck down quickly under the table to pretend searching for the wallet. Meanwhile, he took out the mask and covered his mouth. Fortunately, Meenal’s friend dragged her to a table farther away from where David and Vijay couldn’t be spotted.

” Phew!,”sighed Father David, ” That was too close. Thank you, Lord Almighty, for saving our skins. ” He asked Vijay to get up and resume his seat. They swapped the mobiles, had coffee with breakfast and went their respective way. Father David went home, offered his prayers and sought forgiven from Jesus for he was about to put an act of showing allegiance to the Devil. It was the only way to gain the Devil’s trust and then chant the prayers to send him back to the Forest of Darkness.

He said, ” Forgive me, My Lord! I have to pretend forsaking you which I will never do as long as I live. But the poor girl is in the spiritual world needs to be rescued at the earliest or she could end up like her sister. Please give me the strength to save an innocent girl’s life. Amen! ” He closed his eyes and meditated for sometime.

In the spiritual realm, Dipak’s spirit saw Meenal and was so scared that he was about to turn away. ” Wait, Dipak,” cried Meenal, ” What are you doing here? ” Dipak was too stunned to speak but the fury of getting murdered by Meenal ( the Devil) got the better of him and he lashed out ” You are the reason I am here. Don’t try to feign innocence. I did your bidding but you killed me after I served your purpose.” Meenal understood what happened and she tried to convince him that it wasn’t her but The Devil who possessed her body. Dipak looked at her incredulously, ” Do you expect me to believe your bunch of lies? ” They were arguing when Vidya joined them. Dipak was shocked to see her. Vidya said, ” I know you had a crush on me. But I couldn’t reciprocate your love because you were my junior and it’s against the societal norms. Meenal is innocent. Just hear me once.” She explained everything, including how the Devil tricked her into death and trapped her sister here. Dipak apologized to Meenal and said, ” I am sorry, Meenal. I committed heinous crimes and I am sure I would rot in hell but I am going to pray for your return to the human world. Until then I am not going anywhere.” He sat down on the scattered leaves and started praying. Some angels were approaching him to take him for the Judgement Day but a voice from the Heaven spoke, ” He’s repenting for his actions and is trying to help Meenal go back to her world. Don’t disturb him. ” Dipak’s action moved Meenal and she too prayed for him to go to Heaven.

It was getting dark. Father David stripped off his Priestly Garments and wore a modern attire of jeans and T-shirt. He left behind the Holy Cross and went to Meenal’s house. It was a quarter to twelve, when Meenal ( the Devil) stepped out. David followed her to the graveyard. Meenal stopped abruptly and turned to face him. ” What do you want?, “she yelled at him, ” Don’t you ever learn a lesson?”
David took her by surprise as he bowed down to her and said, ” Please let me join you and be your follower. I have been true to my faith, yet I got punished for a crime I didn’t commit. I promise to get you more followers.”

Meenal laughed at him and said, ” You call yourself a priest? How can I believe you? When you have abandoned your God for testing You, what’s the guarantee that you will be loyal to me? ” David answered, ” A priest will never tell a lie. You have to take my word for that.” Meenal decided to test him and said, ” Can you offer me your blood for the initiation process? ” David searched for a sharp object and picked up a stone to scratch his wrist. Meenal was impressed and delighted. ” Come with me,” she said, ” Let me introduce you to my followers and then I will assign you a task.” She introduced him to the people gathered around them and said, ” David, your first task is to bring Yasmin to me. I need her blood to increase my power.” David said, ” Don’t worry, My Lord. I will hand over Yasmin to you.”

In the spiritual world, Dipak and Meenal earnestly prayed for each other. Pleased with their devotion, God appeared in front of them and said, ” Open your eyes, my children. I am pleased with your devotion. Ask for anything.” Meenal was the first and she said, “My Lord! Dipak might have sinned when he was alive but he met with a painful death. Please let that be a punishment for him and kindly forgive him by granting him access to Heaven.” God smiled and said, “Excellent, my child. You could have asked for your own welfare but chose to get a boon for him. Your wish is granted. Dipak will go to heaven.” He turned to face Dipak and asked, ” Now that you are going to heaven, what’s your wish? ” Dipak replied, ” Oh, Lord of the Universe, please help Meenal by sending her back to where she actually belongs and protect her family from the Devil.” God replied, ” So be it. Meenal, you are going back to your world by tomorrow. Just be a good human and serve your parents.You will get Eternal bliss.”

A white light shone upon Dipak and he bade farewell to Meenal. Vidya hugged her sister and said, ” It’s time for me to move on permanently, dear Sis. I will miss you. Just remember what God said and convey love to Mom and Dad.” Meenal couldn’t stop crying as she saw her sister finally going back to Heaven. She was all alone and waiting for her turn to be freed from the place.

The next day, Father David called Yasmin and explained his plan to her. She gave her consent immediately and later that night, accompanied Father David to the graveyard.

Meenal was pleased to see them. She hugged Yasmin and said, ” My dear girl! I am so glad to see you. I needed a small favor from you.” Yasmin replied, ” Name it and consider it done.” Meenal gave her an evil grin, ” I need your life and blood. I will spare you the pain if you end your life.” Yasmin nodded and picked up the butcher’s knife. In the meantime, David took out the devil phone and started chanting his prayers. Meenal felt her body trembling and she was shocked to see Father David showing her the Holy Cross and the old mobile. ” You traitor! ” she cried, ” You deceived me. I am going to kill you.” She rushed towards him but thrown back by an invisible force. The devil was forced to leave Meenal’s body and enter the Forest of Darkness while the real Meenal was flying away to freedom. Within a few minutes, the Devil went back to his realm, while Meenal’s soul re-entered her body. She fluttered her eyes open and was delighted to find herself back to the earth. ” I am alive,” she grinned at her best friend, Yasmin and hugged her.

” How are you, dear Meenal? ” asked Father David with a smile. Yasmin said, ” Meenal, you have to thank Father David for saving your life. The Devil was creating chaos and mercilessly killing people while possessing your body.” Meenal’s eyes swelled with tears of gratitude, ” How can I ever repay your kindness, Father? Thank you so much for saving me and my family. I learned a very big lesson. Never get attracted by a fanciful object and avoid being selfish.” Father David said, ” It’s God’s wish that you were saved. It’s good to know that you learned your lesson the hard way. It’s not too late. Look after your parents and never hurt anyone, physically or verbally. ” He patted her head and asked the girls to wait for him. He had a final task to complete. He destroyed the mobile into several pieces and buried them. He placed the Holy Cross on the spot to prevent any possibility of the Devil to escape.

He rejoined the girls to drop them off at Meenal’s house. He convinced Meenal’s parents that their beloved daughter was back. He had tears in his eyes as he watched a happy family reunion. Meenal and her parents thanked him and Yasmin for their great help. They also decided to visit the Church regularly where Father David was the priest.

The End.

THE DEVIL KILLER PHONE ( PART 6) : A HORROR SHORT STORY BY ME.

Meenal ( the devil) wanted to take over the soul of Vijay ( real Meenal’s dad). Meanwhile, in the spiritual realm, real Meenal couldn’t shake off the feeling that something ominous was about to happen. It was her intuition warning her of the impending danger. She started praying fervently.

Later that night, Meenal ( devil) stealthily crept towards Vijay’s room. When she opened the room, she couldn’t step in. The moment, she tried to put her foot forward, she felt a burning sensation in her ankle. She gave up after trying several times. Instead of going home, she went to a graveyard where some men and women were waiting for her. She smiled at her followers.

” Good evening, my faithful servants,” she crooned, ” I have some tasks for you. You are supposed to create a mayhem that even local police will fail to handle. I want to hear the sweet sound of cries, despair, and helplessness that would force people to give up their belief in God. They should be desperate enough to trade their soul in exchange for the solution to their problems. Hold rallies and convince them to accept me as their leader. I will grant their wishes but take them to hell to spend rest of their lives.”

Her followers included a gang of goons who bashed up Vijay and her college mates. A young man called Dipak said, ” Don’t worry, Ma’am. Consider your work done. This inhuman society has treated us like a piece of garbage. It’s time for seeking revenge. But what about my reward?” Dipak was a drug addict cum alcoholic. He was also a womanizer. Meenal had used her charm to win him over. She had promised to sleep with him in exchange for his services. Meenal winked at him and said, ” Wait. Finish your task first. I will grant your wish shortly.”

The gathering dispersed and Meenal was back home. In the other world, Vidya watched her sister in a deep meditation. She was about to approach her when one of the guardian angels stopped her. She said ” Let her continue to pray. She saved your father’s life with her prayers. The danger lurking around your family is not over yet. The battle has just begun between God and the Devil. It’s not just your family but the entire city is under a great threat.” Vidya was astonished to hear this.

Dipak was true to his words. He and his friends created a ruckus in college. He morphed the pictures of girls, posting them over internet, creating suspicion and leading to breakups between romantic young couples. Meenal watched him handing over a pamphlet to a troubled lover to solve his problems. In the following weeks, there was a spike in the number of suicides, rapes, murders, acid throwing incidents, arson and vandalism.

Vijay recovered within a week and was discharged from the hospital. He and his wife were afraid of Meenal. They avoided confronting her and just seemed to satisfy her every wish. They were a pure vegetarian family but forced to make chicken, mutton and beef for Meenal.

Vijay observed his daughter. She would venture out of the house at an untimely hour and would be back only by the dawn. He decided to follow her. He almost had a panic attack when he saw her shaking hands with strange men. One of the men, Dipak, had dropped his trousers with the hope of having sex with her. Vijay couldn’t believe his eyes that his daughter was going astray. Meenal came to Dipak and gave him a peck on the cheek. Vijay closed his eyes. He couldn’t see his daughter in such a disgraceful position. He almost started to turn around and walk off when he heard an early piercing scream. He hid behind a tree and watched Dipak begging for mercy. Meenal had burned his privates with a pair of hot iron tongs. Meenal said, ” You have committed a sin. Lust is a sin. You must pay a price for it.” She killed him and ordered her followers to throw the body in the campfire. Dipak’s body was burned to ash. Vijay couldn’t take it anymore. He overheard her conversation.

She seemed to be bragging about her accomplishments. She said, ” My faithful servants, be careful with what you ask for as a reward. Serving me is a great privilege given to you. Dipak’s death should be a lesson to all. He demanded more than he deserved. How dare he try to sleep with me, The Devil? A filthy human can never besmirch me with his dirty hands and legs. What to speak of my Glory? I hate to share the body of this arrogant girl, Meenal. But my mission is more important than her disgusting body. Her elder sister, Vidya, was very stupid to take part in the ouija board and released me from the netherworld. I took over her body, causing the car crash which killed her. Unfortunately, I got trapped in a useless cellphone because her fellow passenger started chanting God’s name. Poor foolish Meenal. She was an easy bait for me. I caused the trouble in her college and gained her trust by advising to stay at home. She believed my every word. I helped her to get rid of her cheating boyfriend and his family. But then she panicked. It was too late for her. I sent her soul to the forest of darkness and took her place instead.”

Vijay nearly fainted. He thought there was something wrong with her behavior. He was too shocked and numb with fear after realizing that his daughter’s body was possessed by the Devil himself. He started walking slowly and swore not to utter a single word to his wife. She was fragile and might even die if he told her about Meenal’s true identity.

The next day, Meenal went to college with her friends and came back in the evening. She stopped outside her house. Something was definitely wrong. She could sense it. She had experienced the same kind of feeling when she went to the hospital to kill Vijay. She heard people laughing. Instead of approaching the house directly, she went towards the back of the house. She had a nasty shock when she saw the visitor with her friend, Yasmin, sitting in the kitchen, having a cup of tea with her parents.

She could feel her skin prickling, a tiny wave of heat rushing through her veins. She had goosebumps and the usually confident, Devil, was properly alarmed. Who was the mysterious visitor? Will Meenal return to her original body? Watch out for the next episode for a shocking surprise.

THE DEVIL KILLER PHONE (PART 5) : A HORROR SHORT STORY BY ME.

Meenal (the devil) was getting ready to go to college. She generously applied her makeup. In fact, she looked more like a whore than a college student. She wore a tight blue miniskirt with a white tank top and a matching jacket. This wasn’t the style of the original Meenal. She grabbed her college satchel and saw her father casting her disapproving looks over the newspaper.

She went to him and asked, ” Dad, I want 5000₹ cash, right now.” Vijay couldn’t believe his ears. He was furious and yelled, ” Why do you need so much money for? You have been splurging my hard earned money on ridiculous outfits and makeup. What’s come over you? I am on the verge of retirement. Besides, money doesn’t grow on trees. Get a part time job and spend your money as you like. I don’t have money with me.” The devil inside Meenal decided to teach him a lesson.

Meenal replied, ” Sorry, Dad. I didn’t realize you were short of money.” She gave him a creepy smile that gave him goosebumps. She turned away and joined her friend, Yasmin.

Vijay finished his breakfast and tea and kissed his wife good bye. The moment he stepped out of the gate, a gang of five goons pounced upon him. One of the men snatched his briefcase, the other took his wallet, ring and wrist watch. They thrashed him to make it look like a case of mugging. Meenal was watching this entire episode with a smirk, much to the horror of Yasmin. Yasmin said, ” Why don’t you help your dad? The poor guy must be saved. ” Meenal said, ” My dad lied to me when he said that he didn’t have money. He could have directly refused instead of lying to me. This is what happens when someone tells a lie. Don’t worry. He won’t die.”

Yasmin was taken aback by her cool attitude. Meenal pretended to be in a state of trance. Yasmin shook her by her shoulders. Meenal yelled at the goons, who took to their heels, followed by Meenal and Yasmin. She asked her friend to call the doctor, while she chased the goons. Yasmin was puzzled over her weird behavior. On one hand, Meenal seemed to be cruel and then in a fraction of a second, turned into a loyal daughter.

Meenal met them around the corner and grinned, ” Well done, my fellows! I am very proud of you. I hope you received your compensation for the hard work. I want you all to meet me outside the cemetery at 12 AM tonight.” The goons, were in fact, possessed by demonic spirits and had launched the attack on Vijay as per her instructions. A couple of days ago, she could sense evil spirits lurking in their neighborhood.

She saw these men knifing a man to death and immediately recognised her followers. She gave them a seductive smile. Her charm attracted their attention. The leader, whose name was Siddhart, aka Sid, bowed down to her and called rest of his men to introduce them to her. She discussed her plans to unleash a reign of terror over the city. They agreed to her plan. She had stolen 50,000₹ cash from the safe at home and gave it to them for the mugging. She arranged for the corpse to be buried at a local cemetery.

Meanwhile, Yasmin got her father admitted in a hospital. His wife, Savita, was wailing over her husband’s serious condition. Yasmin called Meenal and told her that she had admitted her father at the City Hospital. After fifteen minutes, Meenal walked in with tears in her eyes. She saw Yasmin and asked, ” How’s dad? Hope he’s safe.” Yasmin replied, ” I don’t understand your behavior, Meenal. When I asked you to help him, you not only refused to do so, but also said that he had lied to you and he must be taught a lesson. The next moment, you chased those goons and asked me to take care of your father. What happened to you? ” Meenal cried, ” I am so sorry, Yasmin. I think there’s something wrong with me. I don’t remember saying anything evil for my Dad. Do you think I might be possessed? ” Yasmin was a true Christian. She accepted her explanation and replied, ” I guess you could say that. Sorry, honey. Let’s take care of uncle first.” She took her along to visit Vijay. Savita saw her daughter approaching. However, she started trembling at the sight of her. She said, ” Please Meenal, don’t go in. Your father might get upset on seeing you and his health condition may deteriorate. I apologize on his behalf. If you need money, please ask me.” Meenal used her devilish charm to convince her mother that she meant no harm.

Meenal followed her mother to see Vijay, who was lying in the bed with a bandage wrapped around his head. His left arm was broken and in a cast. He opened his eyes and saw Meenal looking at him with a malicious grin on her face. He was swearing profusely. His eyes were full of fear. Meenal came near his bedside and whispered, ” Sorry about your punishment, Dad. You should not have lied. Let this be a lesson to you.”She patted his hand gently and left him under her mother’s care. The couple were terrified of their daughter.

Meenal had already texted one of her classmates to inform the principal about the reason for her absence. Yasmin led her into the cafeteria where they chatted over a cup of coffee. They left the hospital as an autorickshaw approached them. Meenal was about to announce her destination when Yasmin stopped her and said, ” I booked the Uber Auto while you were busy with your father. He knows our destination.”

Meenal got in and Yasmin sat beside her. The autorickshaw driver was taking a wrong direction. ” Hey!” claimed Meenal, ” That’s not the way to Jaya Nagar.” Yasmin said, ” Be quiet. He is taking us to our intended destination.”

They stopped near St. Mary’s Basilica. When Meenal stepped out of the autorickshaw, she let out an ear piercing scream and fell down unconscious, causing a small crowd of people gathering around her. Someone said, ” Please fetch a glass of water and sprinkle some on this girl to revive her.” Father David heard the commotion and decided to investigate. He requested the people to let him in. He had the shock of his life after seeing the unconscious girl. He could recognise the devil. Perhaps God wanted him to save an innocent girl from the clutches of the devil. Yasmin was in tears and approached Father David, ” Father, please save my friend, Meenal. She seems to be possessed by an evil spirit.” Father David reassured her that he would help her.

What happens next is going to be even more interesting! The confrontation between God and Devil is about to begin. The real Meenal is still waiting to be rescued. Her parents are in the hospital. Will Vijay get another lease of life or would he succumb to his injuries? Watch out for the next episode of The Devil Killer Phone.

THE DEVIL KILLER PHONE ( PART 4)

Meenal ( the original one) heard someone crying for help. ” Please help me,” wailed a pitiable female voice. Meenal thought the voice was familiar. She and her sister, Vidya, went to investigate the source of the sound. They entered the forest of darkness. Meenal was shocked to find her arch rival, Manju, standing between two tall trees. She was shivering in fright as a bat swooped over her head. Manju saw Meenal and her eyes widened in horror.

“No, don’t come near me,” she shrieked.

Meenal was taken aback by her abnormal behavior. She said, ” What happened to you, Manju? How did you end up here and why are you scared of me?” Manju snorted, ” As if you don’t know anything. You are the reason why I am here. I don’t know how you managed to do it. You spilled out my innermost secrets and forced me to take away my own life.” Meenal was puzzled. She asked her, ” What the hell are you talking about? When did this happen? ” Manju replied, “Are you suffering from Amnesia? It happened yesterday.”

Meenal answered, ” It’s highly impossible. I have been trapped here for the past couple of days. If you don’t believe me, ask my sister, Vidya.” Manju was shocked to hear her reply, ” But your sister died last year. Does this mean we are dead too? If you are dead, then who’s impersonating you? ” Vidya joined Meenal shortly. After hearing their conversation, Vidya replied, ” This is the work of the devil. He lured Meenal by impersonating me and helping her to get rid of her boyfriend.” Manju was speechless. She faced Meenal and apologized to her for her earlier outburst. Vidya asked Manju to accompany her to the land of the dead where people were waiting for the Pearly Gates to open. While Meenal couldn’t cross the threshold and was stuck on the meadows, Manju was given immediate access to the world of spirits. Vidya said, ” Looks like it’s time for Manju to cross over to the other World. Meenal can’t accompany us because it isn’t her time yet.” Manju wished her good luck and hugged Meenal. She said, ” I might have hurt you in our world. Yet, you have been kind towards me. I hope you take possession of your physical body and take good care of your parents.”

Manju disappeared into the bright light , leaving Meenal in utter despair. Vidya rejoined her and said, ” It’s unfortunate that you had to witness your college mate’s final farewell from the land of mortals to the world of spirits. I have been given time to stay back with you until I help you get back to your own body. I might not be having much time but my kid sister, I love you a lot and will continue to love until eternity. Do tell our parents that I love them and that it was my good luck to be blessed with a wonderful family.” Meenal hugged her and cried her heart out. She couldn’t digest the fact that her impersonator was responsible for Manju’s untimely death.

Meanwhile, Meenal (the devil) continued to put on a good girl act by helping her aged parents who started growing weaker, every time that she helped them. She also offered assistance to their neighbors by running errands for them, babysitting their kids, and conducting coaching classes for the students of all classes. The parents could hardly believe their eyes when their children started scoring full marks in all the subjects. But the devil wasn’t to be trusted. He continued to hunt for the unsuspecting innocent preys and sucking more souls.

Those who sought her help , either died, or got incapacitated in an accident. Vijay and his wife, Savita, were now scared of assigning any task to her. Vijay hired a domestic help to assist with the household chores, as Savita was too weak to do anything.

A couple of days later, a pastor Father David, had a weird dream. He saw a a beautiful teenager with an older woman chatting with each other. The teenager, occasionally, burst into tears and said, ” I wish I hadn’t sought the help of the devil. I wouldn’t have been in this world. Poor Anil and his family got killed. I am worried about Mom and Dad now. The devil has already claimed Manju. What about the rest of my classmates? Oh God! Please help me and save us from the devil.” The vision suddenly changed and Jesus appeared in front of him. He said, ” David, The poor girl you saw is Meenal. The Devil has her trapped into the world bordering the land of spirits and the Forest of Darkness. Time is running out. You only have a couple of days more to help her out. You need to visit her parents and sanctify their house with Holy Water. The girl whose body is possessed by Devil will not be able to enter the house. Search for an object associated with the Devil and bring it inside the Church. Chant the hymns to set the girl free and force the devil to go back to the Forest of the Darkness.”

Father David woke up with a start. It was a very lucid dream. He clearly had an instruction from God to help the poor girl out. But who was she? How could he find out the address of her parents. He had recently shifted to Bengaluru and moved to Jaya Nagar, a few blocks away from Meenal’ s house. He had recently read the reports of shocking cases of accidents and suicides in his new locality. Suddenly, he realized that the Devil in question, was quite close to him. It gave him goosebumps and he started praying for the success of the dangerous task entrusted to him.

Watch out for the upcoming episode of The Devil Killer Phone. Will Father David succeed in his mission? What would be the fate of Meenal and her parents? How many victims does the Devil plan to take? The story becomes more scary in the next episode.

THE DEVIL KILLER PHONE ( PART 3) : A HORROR SHORT STORY BY ME.

Meenal, ( the devil), took everyone by surprise with a pleasant change in her demeanor. She started doing household work to help her mother and would also run errands for her father. Soon, she managed to win everybody’s love and affection. A month had passed, since she had escaped from the confines of the mobile and sent the poor girl’s soul to languish behind in the forest of darkness.

She became more studious and also helped those lagging behind in their studies. Her popularity soared to a new level. Her parents couldn’t be more proud of her. But everything comes at a cost. Meenal’s mother, Savita, was the first one to be affected. She started feeling tired after a couple of days. The devil had started feeding off her energy. Meenal had a wicked gleam in her eye everytime her mother asked her to do something because the latter was feeling weary.

Her father,Vijay, started noticing that whenever Meenal offered her help, it started affecting his wife, who no longer welcomed him with a warm smile. He was worried. In order to test his theory, he asked her to pay the electricity bill and gave her his card details. She did as she was told. Later that evening, he experienced a mild headache and absent mindedly, asked Meenal to give him a glass of water to take the medicine for the headache. His headache further intensified, reminding him not to seek any more favor from her.

Meanwhile, she finished preparing food and told her mother, ” Mom, I am going to college. Don’t forget to take the pill for your weakness. I think you have anemia. I will take you to the doctor after coming home.” Her father looked up from the newspaper and said, ” I will take her to the doctor. You concentrate on your studies. We don’t want to burden you with additional responsibilities.”
The devil in Meenal’s body got alarmed. Had her father realized what was going on? It was time to make him forget everything. Meenal took a deep breath and forced a smile, ” Now, dad. Just chill. Isn’t it my duty to take care of both of you ? Do you really think I am going to create any trouble for Mom? ” Vijay looked into her eyes. The innocence in her eyes and her sincere voice won him over. He mentally took himself to task for doubting his lone daughter. In fact, the devil had successfully hypnotized him to forget all his suspicion.

No sooner did she arrive at college, than a strange girl wearing a pink tank top with a pair of blue jeans, rushed towards her with her fists clenched. ” You bitch, ” she screamed, ” What did you do to my boyfriend? He’s clearly smitten over your new charming personality. I liked you more when you were a snob. Don’t you have Anil as your boyfriend? Stop stealing others’ boyfriends or I will teach you a lesson, you will never forget.” Meenal smiled at her nemesis, Manju, who kept on calling her names. She said, ” Listen, whoever you are! I don’t have any fucking idea of which boyfriend you are talking about. I know that you amassed quite a string of puppets who dance to your tunes in exchange for the service you are rendering. I would advise you to stop ranting and search for your soul within. Do you want me to share your tales of infidelity all over the city? “

Manju stopped her verbal tirade in shock. How the hell did Meenal know about her secret affairs? She had been quite meticulous in keeping her affairs a secret.
She almost whispered, ” Please forgive me, Meenal. I will never bother you again? I am willing to pay any price to keep my infidelities secret.”

Meenal’s smile widened, ” Is that a promise? ” Manju nodded and Meenal whispered into her ears, ” I want your soul in exchange for my discretion. Go and end your life after writing a note about your guilty conscience pricking you for doubting your boyfriend. You can have my boyfriend, Anil, whom I have already sent to hell. ” Manju simply nodded. She left without saying a word. A huge crowd had gathered around them. Meenal received a huge round of applause for her tackling Manju.

The poor girl took out a notebook and scribbled her suicide note, leaving it, on the hood of a car at the parking. She went to the terrace of one of the buildings and screamed as she plunged to death. The whole college was shocked at the turn of events. They had never witnessed any student committing suicide within the college campus. The police and the ambulance arrived shortly, as the college principal declared the rest of the day off for the students who were visibly shaken and too scared. Manju was a big bully but no one had any idea that she would resort to suicide. Little did anyone know, that it was the handiwork of Meenal, the devil.

When Meenal came back from college, she saw her mother waiting for her. She appeared to be relieved on seeing her daughter. She said, ” Our neighbor, Mr. Rao, told me that there was an unfortunate incident in your college and that a student had ended her life. I sincerely prayed it wasn’t you. God knows what I would have done if I lost you as well! “
Meenal hugged her mother. The devil inside her, had never experienced a maternal love. He was touched by her sincere, selfless love. This was something he hadn’t experienced. Against his inherent quality of tormenting people in exchange for a favor, he decided to stop feeding on her energy and instead focus his attention elsewhere.

The original Meenal, was now stuck in the region surrounding the paradise. God appeared to her in the form of Jesus. She had no words to express her happiness. She folded her hands and bowed her head reverentially. She said, ” I am sorry, God. Since I am a Hindu, I don’t know how the Christians offer their prayers. I hope You forgive me and save me from being trapped here forever, unless, of course, it’s ordained by destiny that I should stay here.’ God was pleased with her honest revelation and said, ” My dear Child, It’s your thoughts and prayers that matters. God is always one and He belongs to all. Some call Him Ram, Some call Him Allah, and Some Jesus. Unfortunately, My Children, whom I brought into this beautiful world called Earth, have divided Me into several thousand pieces and baying for each other’s blood. How can a Father Or a Mother watch His or Her children suffer In pain? I am here to help you out. You may have to spend a couple of days more as the fruits of your evil past deeds have caught up with you. As soon as the punishment ends, you will go back to your world. Until then, enjoy the company of your sister and enjoy the grand feasts.” He smiled upon her and vanished. Suddenly, Meenal felt a new wave of calmness and love take over her. She was quite happy to serve the term of her punishment.

Watch out for the next episode as Meenal the devil continues to torment people and an unexpected twist in the take.

Note : I believe God is one. He is Our Lord Shiva, Lord Ganesh, Lord Muruga, Lord Vishnu for Hindus, Allah for Muslims, Guru Nanakdevji for Sikh devotees, Jesus for Christians etc. How can we be so cruel and heartless to destroy the places of worship? Let Him guide us to develop love and fraternity towards all religions and respect Him in all the forms.
