#WHAT GOOD IS IN THIS WORLD?.
It was a sunny morning, the cool breeze seem to have gone on an adventure elsewhere. The city seems so lifeless as everyone hibernated from the sun.
Ajay was sitting at his corridor looking so lost in thought. Suddenly his wife (Erica) pat him from behind and said '' A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. We may not have any one to help us in our time of distress but it is better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool in his folly. She wiped away her tears and continued, Our son has been missing for days and till now there is no any news of him. We gone to different police stations to file a complain but it was to no avail just because we couldn't provide the money they needed.
Ajay looked at his sobbing wife and said '' darling, a poor man is shunned by all his relatives how more do his friends avoid him! though he pursues them with pleading they are no where to be found. I am just a petty barber earning less than a thousand a day. In this world we are, money speaks louder. I have a huge amount of money to clear before the end of this month and now my son is missing ( Tears stream down his eyes while his wife tries to console him. when she couldn't control her emotions, she left quickly and enter into the house. When Ajay was about to go after her, his phone rang. He quickly dugged into his pocket and picked the call. The caller laughed and said '' hello, hello. Not able to recognize the voice, Ajay questioned him '' please who is on the phone?. ''A person you least expected''said the caller. Ajay's expectations arises as he was hoping to hear a news about his son's whereabouts. He inquires from the caller "have you found my son is that why you are calling please tell me?.
The caller responded in a suspicious tone"yes my friend I have found your Son he is safe here with me. But in a terrible state. Give me what I want and I will let your son go. Trembling seizes Ajay's body as he questions the caller saying ''who are you?
" Your worst nightmare. It is so surprising to hear that you don't even recognize my voice." responded the caller. Fear was in Ajay's voice as he tried calling out the name "you are Vikr...am. The caller clapped and said"Good quessing that is me. I asked you over and over again without ceasing to pay me my money but you remained reluctant. I got your son kidnapped in exchange for my money. He who obeys instructions, guard his life but he who is contemptous of his way will die. So be careful not to lose your son due to your actions. I am giving you 5 hours to return my money or else you know what I am capable of doing. Good bye for now.( Vikram disconnected the call and laugh out loud. He dropped his phone on the table and pull out the mask he was putting. Instantly, he drag a chair and sat on it saying " A money quickly gained at the beginning will not be blessed at the end. But the wealth acquired at the end will surely be blessed and multiply. Money, fame, wealth is my security and the key to any door that is shut. I never leaves a penny that belongs to me with someone because It is attached to my life. If I lose a Kobo, I loss the key to a particular door of great and luxury.
Ajay fell to the ground and gave a loud shout full of pain in his voice. All his neighbors gathered around. His first neighbor walked towards him and said "Better to live on the top of the roof than share a street with you Ajay. If your son has gone missing how is it our fault that you are always been a nuisance you kept on shouting do you want to destroy our ear drums? ( Ajay was no less than a lifeless soul as he sat on the bare ground) The woman looked at him intently and continued"if you can't coordinate and live happily with us then you are more than welcome to pack your loads and leave here. " Ajay stood up and said to her" it is to a man's honour to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrell. The woman was enraged with anger and said to Ajay " Are you calling me a fool?. Ajay answered her" I never labelled you a fool. what I am trying to say is that the fortune made by a lying tongue is fleeting vapor and a deadly snare. we should all care and love ❤️one another. Listen, my son has been kidnapped I am pleading to all of you present here to please help me get my son back. One of his far neighbor spit on him and said " better giving my help to animals than you. Ajay you are a bad omen to this society. please don't try to initiate with us before you make us one of you.You are a jinx , did you hear?, save your miserable son yourself. The neighbors all left hissing and mocking him but his wife continued to be his supportive system. Time flies, Ajay was only left with 2hours to save his son. He went in search of a job in a construction site.But there was no work pending. When he was about leaving, one of the worker reported that a truck cannot make it to the ground to load the cement to the other site. After listening to his report, Ajay made himself available to do the work. The employer was unwilling to give him because the work was very critical and thinking of how a human can lift 50 bags of cement. Ajay kept on insisting and surprisingly, the employer offer him the job. Ajay began lifting the bags one after the other. when he was left with 3 bags, on his way he saw his wife fetching water and filling some empty drums in the construction site he was ashamed of his self that he couldn't provide his family and his wife is suffering to meet end need. He tried convincing her to leave but she refused. He continued his work. His whole body was weak, walking was a hard thing to do. But he never gave up. After dropping the last bag, he felt to the ground. His wife ran to him and tried waking him up but to no avail. He quickly regained his consciousness after thinking of his son and the appointed time set for him. When he got up from the floor, he asked for the location and it was sent to him. He collected his earning and began running to his son's rescue. on his way, some pictures of his son where been sent to him and each has a writeup under. The one that called his attention is when Vikram wrote that his son hasn't eaten and taken anything for days. The boy kept begging for water but he was never given. Ajay ran his out most best and when he reached the location and entered into the warehouse, he saw his son on a chair although breathing but he looks death. Tears filled Ajay's eyes. He moved closer to his 6years old child, carried him on his lap and tried talking to him. Vikram and his men watched from a view as though they know the outcome. Ajay tried his best to get his son to respond to him but it was to no avail. Suddenly the boy struggled to utter a word. He glare at his father and said "I thirst da...d. immediately he gave up the ghost. Fear gripped Ajay's body. He gave out a loud shout and fainted. While Vikram and his men disappeared into the the thin air.
