There was no one at my home today so we had planned for the group study at my home as our exams were near. I escorted my friends to my room and made them comfortable. I brought some chips and soft drinks for my friends. We started studying but one of our friends, Mala was sad. She had recently lost her grandmother. She seemed to be disoriented. We tried to cheer her up but all our efforts were futile and she started shedding tears inconsolably.
I had an idea to make my friend talk to her granny. There was an old Ouija Board in our storeroom. I had always been curious about it but I had strict instructions from my parents not to touch it. I quickly went to the storeroom and brought the Ouija Board, surprising my friends. My friends grew as intrigued as I was. We sat in a circle, with the Ouija Board in the centre.
We closed our eyes and held each other’s hand trying to summon spirits.
Soon, there was an eerie feeling in the air. Mala screamed “Granny” and stood up leaving our hands and running towards a wall. We all opened our eyes. We couldn’t see anyone and then we noticed Mala floating in the air.
We were terrified. She was thrown to the ground with great force.
I noticed blue rays emanating from the board. I quickly grabbed the matchbox, kept it near me and ignited the board. The board burnt brightly covering the room with fumes. We couldn’t see anything and Mala lay unconscious on the floor. There was a cracking sound on the windowpane before the fumes dissipated completely. We saw the crack on the windowpane. Mala regained her consciousness soon after that and I apologised to her. We decided not to speak about this incident to anyone.
