Part-1

"Oh! Today I'm already late!", doing walk-in-talk to myself.

Waiting for a bus on the Bus Stop. . . as I'd already missed my regular bus. Was giving a watch to my wrist watch for the next bus to come!

A chubby cheeked; curly brown hair woman came to me.

"Where do you live?", that woman asked me.

"Sorry! Are you asking me?", I turned to her.

"Yes!, where do you live?", she asked me again.

"Why?", talking to a stranger is awkward.


You know criminals neither come with a signboard nor have gender specification.

"I can do all the household works perfectly and build good connections with nearby local shops. Just a ring, the good would be delivered at the doorstep!", that woman delivered the speech boastfully.

"So, where do you live?", asked me again.

'I'm sure you won't get any scope of complaints. I'm that much smart and perfect'. . . she expressed.

I listened! Listened! Listened!


Then. . . . . . . . . .

"Ma'am, can you see the street across the road?", I asked that heavyweight woman.

"Yes! Yes!, I can see. Then where do you live?", that irritating woman;again asked me.

"Shut up! Just listen to me without uttering a single word or making noise, ok?", I shouted at her.

This time, she just nodded her head and got attentive too.

READ "THE END"!

Part-2

The street just behind you, across the road, has got an extremely narrow lane. The lane, between the skyscrapers, is so. . . narrow that, a single person can walk through it. And if anyone from the opposite side is coming, you're to step back to the starting point!


However, that lane roads to a Quagmire; which was a beautiful pond, once upon a time. Be careful! But, don't worry, to cross the Quagmire, there is a super narrow foot over bridge. Here again, you need to be very very very much careful about! Because the foot over bridge has no railings and is party damaged too. And yea! It can only weigh upto 60 kg. Hopefully yours weight might be below that!

After successfully crossing the bridge, there is a haunted house. Relax! It doesn't haunt during daytime till 10 o'clock


From there, you need to move straight till your nose hits the Banyan tree. The one and the oldest one in that locality. There you just stop, chill out for sometime under it and then visit the small piece of land; just behind the Banyan tree Ok!

There. . . I've my future plans. I'll buy that land and build a cottage for me, designed on Halloween theme. I've almost saved a lot for that piece of land. I'm such a generous person you know, doing charity by buying that particular piece of land!?


Actually that piece of land is a cemetery of the Butler, who used to be a part of that haunted house! Now you tell me, when onwards are you going to work for me? You're turned out to be so lucky that, you'll be joining me from the foundation of my cottage itself! I can pay as much as you demand, so that. . . one day you too can have your own cemetery in front of my small cottage!


After listening to me till the end. . . that woman turned her back and in a wink completely got vanished out of my sight.

Lastly. . .

Does anyone of you want to know, 'where do I live!?'
