Once
upon a time, there was a girl named Bagdni and a boy named Mundu.
Bagdini was studying in the same class as that of Mundu, a very much
creative and clever boy. Just opposite to Mundu, Bagdni was a quite
innocent and calm hearted girl. They both were best friends and used
to play games with each other every day and study together always.
After
three years, they both went out to study. But they both don’t
know that they will meet in the same college for study. They both
were hardworking and helped each other a lot in study and assignment
work. After a week of their starting their college, Mundu and Bagdni
decided to go for a picnic in the nearby garden. They both were
strangers there and don’t know much regarding the place, but
heard of it that it is a nice picnic spot but safe only while the
day. They knew that at the night it’s a very dangerous place
as, during the night, the soul of the king used to harm people.
They
heard a rumor that a foolish king was killed there by a small, clever
brown mouse. The king, due to his ego, thought that no one can kill
him, not even God and he was overconfident about that. So, the
villagers who were tired of the orders of the king found a clever
brown mouse which was the pet of a villager named Bampu. The ‘clever’
title was given to that brown mouse because he was very intelligent
and told the king that he can’t seek him and the foolish king
tried to run after him to catch him. But the clever mouse jumped into
a deep river. As that king don’t know how to swim, he was not
able to breathe as his nostrils were struck with water after ten
minutes of the scene, the villagers arrived there and found that the
king was dead. That mouse knew that that king doesn’t have the
knowledge to swim and the mouse was a very good swimming teacher.
After that, as the wish of the king was not completed in his life to
live a very long life and he didn’t want to be killed by a
small mouse at a very young age, his soul was whispering there only
which harm people at the night.
Bagdni
and Mundu after hearing this story from a person, started their
journey towards that picnic spot by telling their driver that they
have to reach there before 7 pm. But as they reached just two
kilometers away, they stared their journey, suddenly their car driver
observed a type of problem in the engine as the car was not moving
properly and after some time, stopped automatically. And that area
was also a forest area and there was no car mechanic nearby. The
driver then tried to find the problem but was unable to make it work
again. Both Mundu and Bagdni were waiting inside the car only, while
the driver went for a walk to search for a mechanic.
By
the time the driver returned, the time was around 5 pm, but
fruitlessly, without any mechanic with him. Mundu, being a genius and
intelligent science student, tried and succeeded in making the car
engine work well by using the concepts he had studied seriously. The
driver thanked and blessed Mundu for his creative mind and they
started their journey ahead.
The
time they reached the picnic spot, it was 7:30 pm, which was not the
right time to have a visit to the garden of the venue. Being
brave-hearted, the driver convinced both of them to have a visit
there near the bright lighted area only. Bagdni and Mundu decided to
have a meal in the restaurant nearby and then going there to have a
walk there in the garden.
After
having a nutritious dinner, they went to have a walk in the light
sparkled area in the picnic spot.
While
having a walk, Bagdni was first to start the walking track followed
by Mundu followed by the driver. After five minutes of walk, Mundu
noticed a type of strange noise in that calm, dark area. Bagdni was
walking fast and reached six to seven meters far from Mundu, as
observed by Mundu himself. Then, Mundu had a quick look backside to
see the driver but was shocked to see no one behind him. Mundu was
shocked and shouted “Driver Uncle”. But his echo came
back and no one else. Then he tried to run towards Bagdini by calling
her. But she didn’t stop. He thought that she was unable to
hear him.
Then,
he noticed a wild horse running sound but due to dark area was not
able to see anything. Suddenly, he saw three men around him he was
just like standing between a triangle as surrounded by the three men.
Then, one of them tried to snatch the silver chain from his neck. He
tried to save it and started shouting but he was unable to save his
chain and no one around that spot, was able to hear him. Within five
seconds of that, Mundu observed an attack from the backside with a
rod and he fell.
He
woke up in the midnight, around 11:45 pm and slowly got his senses
back and observed that blood was coming out from his forehead and
remembered about the scene which was happened with him. Then, his
mind struck that Bagdni, his best friend was also with him and he
anxiously started searching her. He found Bagdni in a prone position
on a bench. She was just faint may be due to watching something
strange and Mundu just, without considering his serious injury, was
having attachment with her friend so that she could recover her
consciousness. He was showing his seriousness and hospitality towards
her. And after, Bagdni opened her eyes and Mundu felt relaxed and
hugged her, showing his sympathy towards her. Bagdini felt towards
the injury on his forehead and gave her a scarf to him for covering
the wound. They both consider the place to be unsafe at that time
too. Then, Mundu called the police of that area and after that
informed their parents regarding this. After a few minutes, the
police came there and noted the details of the driver’s car and
found that the car driver was a registered criminal in their records.
The
police took both of them to a safe place and called a doctor for
treatment of Mundu’s injury. The next day, one of the policemen
found that criminal driver at the taxi stand and took him to jail and
the Judge decided to give the criminal, life imprisonment considering
his previous crimes.
The
police inspector appreciated Mundu for calling the police at the
right time.
Mundu
and Bagdni thanked the police inspector for their great help and
protection to them.
