This is a haunting short story based on a real incident with my relative in a remote village on the banks of River Krishna in India. The countryside people often come across one or other unnatural incidents while they are going or returning from their fields. Usually, most of the farmlands will be situated outside the villages or nearby forests. The farmers sometimes face something scary or unexplainable while walking or working around their fields. The villagers mostly believe in both good and evil forces. They say, if God exists then there are evils too in form of demons, ghosts, or some supernatural energy. Some experience it in real and some exaggerate small instances to get attention. And for every superficial thing, they have a local solution, and if nothing goes well, they accept it as their karma.
Our character in this story is one of those people who have seen, experienced, and suffered many things in his life. However, age and anxiety don't go hand in hand. As the story goes we can see how a humble old man gathers his self-belief and strength and faces the unseen force for his survival.
The Story comes in 3 Chapters. The first chapter is an introduction to the character and an unusual event that leads him to an unusual path. The second chapter is completely about unnatural things he encounters and hauntings, the third chapter is a mystery. You will surely enjoy reading it.
