A MEMORABLE DAY IN MY LIFE :


A real rainy day it was or perhaps , I should call it a rainy evening, since it had become dark , there should have been light enough to play cricket. A light storm having started . I ran about the house from room to room shutting the windows and fastening the bolts of the doors. I was alone in the house then, preparing for an exam, The other members of the family had gone to a wedding reception.



Having shut myself up, I sat at my writing table and tried to think of a likely topic for the next days exam. But I could not concentrate . The rain came down in torrents , almost with a physical force it slashed urgently the window panes . The sound of falling water drowned all my personal thoughts, just then , went off the supply of electricity I found myself drowned in blackness , and full of shivery down my spine.


They say I am rather romantic, perhaps I get easily excited. but that evening , I did have the strongest experience of my life. i groped in the dark for the torch and somehow found it. but it's battery had run down , and it thickered faintly only for a few second.


I hurried to a window which faced a narrow lane below and threw it open to let in some street lights. I stood for sometimes launching at the cold grills. At once , I saw it ! yes , I distinctly saw How ! The same unruly mass of hair, the tough beard , the same limb in his walk, and the same dark brown shawl wrapped about him. it was my beloved grandpa ! yet he had died last year and had been properly burnt in pyre.


was it a spirit, or had he come back to life again ? it was a rainy night when they took him to the crematorium ?...............I could not help crying out, my beloved grandpa.

The figure looked upon a distant height , fell on its profile and distinctly it seemed to me that there were no eyes in his sockets, but two deep hallows !

For long time, I became unconscious, I don't know , when I came to the sence. The tube light was blazing brightly. I thrilled as I got up, supporting myself against a table. Almost immediately , I heard the sound of a cab as soon as the door bell rang, My parents and brother returned this time. They said , it was all the doing of my romantic mind simply an optical illusion. Although they laughed ☺ at my experience , but how could I deny it ?
