The story of how a devil was born

-

Hello everyone!
The parents and the children are never in a mood to understand the views of the other. This has perhaps become the biggest controversial thing of the century (I have no idea of the time before this!) I am not being malicious to the elder generation but indefinite goals of the parents often lands the child to hurdles. It’s simply just like the potter is responsible for giving shape to the clay.

Hands up! If you are a kid (even if you are not a kid) and you believe that the world has expanded with various scopes and infinite careers and your traditional parents exaggerate filmy lines like:
           “Mera beta engineer banega”
          “Jo mujhse nahi ho saka isse karwa ke rahunga”, etc., etc.,   
 then it’s known what you would be going through…. I need not elaborate.


More than filmy lines, I would call these beliefs. And the road is smooth and slanting downwards still you stick to your parents’ beliefs and the road turns into a mountain when you oppose it.
Sterner than the decisions are the methodologies that are implemented. . . .
“TV, mobile, computer, outing, everything banned till you complete your boards!”


The idea of forceful implementation to gather focus is the worst idea any parent can have. Now that the kid is not at all in desire to understand the lines written in the book held in front of him, he tries various sources to pass the day. There appears then the mobile stolen from the locked safe, drugs bought through various sources, etc. Porn would even be helpful! The child does whatsoever he can to divert himself because the reality is not in his favor.
In my case, phone, internet, computer, TV, outing even everything was banned since 1st year on the pretext that I will be allowed only after +2. The little effort I gave for studying well was all the more depleted. Even during the boards, I hardly cared about my exams and just founded excuses for recreation. I had got satisfied that I can’t change the world around me. I strongly believed that I had no future. Despite innumerable friends, I had gone silent in the midst of the crowd for I thought I was the only one who won’t prosper in life. So the final decision I took was to commit suicide. But then I stepped down my decision because what I thought to be the problem of just myself is also the problem of many others. Regardless of the cause, the only solution could be found upon striving; I had to live for this. The very common thing I observed is that all depressed people were living in loneliness. Peers who perform better are people to be avoided and with this, parents strand alone the child to be left alone. And thus out of loneliness, devils are born…
                    An empty mind is a devil’s workshop.

Those people who were filled with so much of enthusiasm at the beginning of the session all are now drained; as if every drop of their childhood dreams and desires have been squeezed. Wandering aimless, no plans of what they will do, I see a whole crowd who are vandalized in their enterprise.

As I said, it’s all because of the contradiction between the beliefs of the parents and their wards. Just to break these beliefs and prove that the parents are wrong, kids fall into malevolence. Plus the society comments and give their remarks! It’s not easy to be pervasive here so here a line of separation increases and the child is reluctant to face the elders for any opinion regarding the career.


Terms and conditions are necessary along with stress and peer pressure for developing a child. But limiting every resource for no purpose and just to satisfy self is completely an immature action; thus I believe many times the elder generation does the major mistake. After all they too are humans and to err is to human! So children should never be dependent on anyone and try to gather understanding climate if parents are not liberal. Its jut as plain as I can’t say my mom that I love my best friend’s sister and my dad that I want to drink a bit and remove my tension! (Literally joking! None of my friends have a sister....Anyway the temptation to drink is a reality! ))


If you didn't get anything after reading all, then the only conclusion I draw is:

Every child becomes a devil in his journey to success but if he fights regardless of all fading faculties then the devil dies and a hero is born.

Writing through the engineering days

The scenery of rain drops slipping on the slides of leaves gives me nostalgia of my engineering days. It was 2015 when I took admission in an engineering college. Continual rain over the days had filled in all the low lying areas beside road leading from the main gate to the hostel. My father had just dropped me off at my newly, temporarily and partially owned property. One of the bed was unoccupied and in another, my senior roommate slept covering himself with blanket from top to bottom. My room was on fourth floor. It was drizzzling and through the sprinkled glasses of the window, I gazed at the hills on the other side. There were four of them in view, so I saw in them my family photo which hung up on the drawing room walls back at my hometown. The big ones were my parents ofcourse and the small ones- me and my brother. All my life I had remained secluded from friend circles but being alone in a new area of strangers where you don’t identify a ghost was a terrible feeling

That first girl

-
Angelica- She was the first girl I had a crush on. Same height as mine, a divine combination of straight and curly hair extending till her waist, a black mole below her lower lip and a sea of smile on her face. There are infinite things I can describe about her, but I won't, or else you will fall in love with her. I met her at a friend's place in which both of us were invited. It was a marriage event. After all the processions were over and the bride, who was my friend's sister, left to the groom's place to spend a happy life ever after, I went to the roof of the hotel to puff few cigarettes before going to sleep. As the first puff exhausted to perish in the darkness of the night, there seemed to what can be called as a squealing tone. I moved forward towards the back of the water tank- a girl in her early 20s was sobbing bitterly. Sensing someone sit next to him, she tried to control holding back her tears but it was already too late. "Hey!", I said i

GCEK Horror Stories CASE-1

The sky had a vast sea of clouds floating in it with the rays of sunbeams traversing in distinguished harmony through them. Me and my roommates, were having a casual walk around the campus. It was in the fresher year when people try hard to make selections for their life partners or friends with similar interests. We three belonged to the normal community of nothingness and mostly remained within our circle. It was around six in the evening and my roommates, both belonging to the same section, were reminded of the need to buy some stationery material from the town. They boarded the bus and I was left all alone.  Thinking about the lake behind the hostel, I made a quick decision to go to the spot. I had been there once before, for taking bath with my friends but in the evening, nobody would go there without purpose. So I made way through the little gap beneath the campus boundary and climbed upwards to the railway tracks and began walking slowly enjoying every charm o
