Kaboom -1

Well! The title is true. This is based on a true, adapted, inspired, heard, untold and what more a copied story. Well should I call this a story? Maybe I should or maybe not. Anyways whatever it is, I need to convey this to someone, who can interpret this as a story or just a piece of crap. It’s getting cold in here, but I can still see a lot of people around who look really strange. I was sitting too close, that a big wave could have easily taken me into the sea. I’m not sure whether that was my intention, committing suicide. Perhaps if I had then definitely the mermaid’s (if exists) would have come out of the sea. Am I so frustrated with my life that I hate it to the core. Wait a second, even in that case it should be me who has a choice to make whether to hate the life or not, not the other way round. “It’s not safe to sit so close to the sea at this part of time, the tides are pretty rough here, so please get back to the shore” was the call from one of the security guys. I got back my senses (yeah sometimes I do, believe me) and was wondering what I’m doing there sitting so close to the sea. I’m unable to neither realize nor remember what had happened to me. Is this some kind of dejavu?
I looked myself in a mirror hanging on a wooden pole, and I was surprised to see the clothes I’m wearing. I’m dressed in a suit with the tie which is little loose now. “What the heck has happened to me, why am I dressed like this? Did I ran from a wedding or Am I a CEO of a bankrupt company.” Whatever it is, this attire would certainly earn me some respect unless and until if I don’t open my mouth. I was standing on the footpath which seems to be totally unique to me and tried by best to remember where I should go now, but I couldn’t. I can see a few people here and there but I believe they won’t be of any help to me. Doesn’t it sound weird, when you are in such a kind of situation? Of course it does. I suddenly felt the earth shaking under my feet, but before I could react there was a big flash of light from the sky like a lightning, rather I should say a 100’s of lightning together which struck me. I used to wonder when people say “I was off in a flash”, but today I realized it, in fact I was really off in a flash from that place. I found myself in a highway (freeway), where I hardly could find a soul. It was like someone would have laid this road in between a desert. It was so hot here; I couldn’t find any camels or Brendan Fraser, because he is the one who can be found in any desert these days trying to hunt “The Mummy”.
No one would survive in this place, obviously because there is nothing here, but why did they have a road here? I wished the previous place was better, at least there were people. I looked up and stared at the sun, expecting the flash of light with “kaboom” and I would be out from this place, but it didn’t happen. The sun was shining really hard that I could see 100’s of mirage. I started walking in the road, the place was so silent and all of a sudden I could hear a honk of a truck the moment I turned back, I was hit by the truck. No “kaboom” this time only bangggg…... I was alive, which was a big surprise to me; the branch which I’m holding protruded from the mountain started developing a crack. I looked down and it took me a while to see the ground, it was so deep. “Did the truck hit me so hard that I was thrown out of the mountain? But there was no mountain in and around that place” by this time the crack started to develop in a rapid rate. But to be honest this place was really amazing, I wish I had my camera. Even if I had no one would have been able to see those photos ever. Flying in the air is a great fun and I’m all set to experience that fun, the branch broke completely and I’m off set to have a memorable journey if I survive this, but I don’t think so I would.
As usual I was wrong; I survived and had a safe landing, would you believe that, of course you need to; else I wouldn’t have continued my so called story. I think I would have landed probably in one the coldest region in the earth. This place was freezing and I immediately started to hunt for my sixth finger. Alas! I couldn’t found my matchbox. I somehow spotted two stones amidst of this snow and started to rub them to get the fire, back to Stone Age. As soon as I rubbed it against each other, the whole place started to shake, I was expecting a “kaboom” to happen this time, but there was a sudden volcano eruption. The place which was supposed to be the coldest zone became the hottest in no time. I didn’t try to escape, even if I had thought it wouldn’t be of any use. I should have been died long back, but I didn’t, is god trying to show me how close I can be to death or it’s me and my super natural powers (if exists) trying to cheat death ? From where did I get these powers? Even I was a normal human being if I remember correctly, what would have happened all of a sudden. Am I an alien? I don’t think so, because when I saw myself in that mirror, I didn’t had any antenna’s on my head nor did I look like new Vodafone creature. I don’t believe in black jack, oops sorry black magic or any evil spirit, but why would I experience something like this. By this time the volcano eruption was at a rapid rate, and I was thrown away from that place.
This time I found myself in a better place; it was completely lush green all around, no sudden surprises that’s what even I believe after seeing this place. I suddenly spotted a monk (not the one who sold his Ferrari) walking towards me. I asked what place is this and what he is doing there all alone, because I could hardly find a soul within my eyes reach. He smiled and bowed to me and walked away from that place. This situation is getting worse and complicated. I was in few places where there were no living beings, but here I found one who is of no use to me. I didn’t tried stopping him, because there was something unique about him and I vaguely remember his face. One thing that was really haunting me was; his action towards me. ”why did he bow for me? Am I god? Or I’m something special? I don’t think so I can be god, but there should be something unique about me. I really tried my best to recollect that monk’s face, and of course I succeeded. He was none other than the security guy who asked me to step back from the sea, but what is he doing here in no man’s land dressed as a monk and what I’m doing here ?. All I can remember is I was sitting close to the waves and after that it’s only Kaboom. Is he the one who is responsible for whatever is happening with me?
