‘What happened last night?’ she shouted when I opened my eyes. ‘What?’ was my sudden response. ‘I don’t remember’ I added.
‘Try to recall’ she said. ‘Tell me what happened last night? Then we will decide what needs to be done further’ she added.
‘What further? I want to go home’ I said.
‘No more argument, we don’t have much time, many people are waiting for their turn. Now tell me what happened last night?’
I tried and tried, last thing I remember was the lounge where we are partying and drinking. So I told her that I don’t remember much because I was heavily drunk and still I can feel the hangover. She gave a wicked smile and slowly came near to me and said,
‘Don’t worry I will tell you what happened last night’
‘After your so called party was over, you were headed to your palace. You thought you were a king of the city and wore a crown, which was one of your shoes. Then while walking you saw one of your so called kingdom’s servants lying down presenting chocolates and you started eating it, but in actual it was cow dung beside a sleeping beggar. Later when you saw a beautiful river of your state and went near to drink its pure water. People saw you leaning in the gutter. You ordered one of your solders to bring the chariot for you, when you were done with the river oops gutter. Later you were standing in middle of the road for you chariot, and hoping that all others will stop seeing their king in middle of the way, which resulted in a brutal accident and because of you three people in chariot I mean that speedy car, got seriously injured and two of them died. The other one who died is standing behind you’ she completed in one go.
‘The first one is you’ she added.
I turned and found the man behind me looking at me angrily and others in line smiling on my death.
‘No, it can’t be, I can’t be dead’ I cried.
‘Now don’t create a scene here, you have already done it last night. Decision had been made on our further destination.’ She said and handed me something in a glass.
‘What destination? And what is this?’ I asked wiping my tears.
‘This is the same thing which made you king last night and also your last thought while dying. So for us it was your last wish to fulfill’ she said and laughed like a devil.
‘But I have many other wishes, more things to do and to fulfill…please let me go…please’
The only reply I got was a huge laugh by all, followed by her, saying…
‘Drink…and go to hell’…
