Creative Story Writing....

Hi Everybody,

There was a "creative" story writing competition at my company Geometric, in which I participated.

Please find here the story :

Topic: “While struggling through each step in the desert, there was a splash of cool water on my back”

While struggling through each step in the desert, there was a splash of cool water on my back, and i realised that somebody was standing in front of me just like a mirage. I asked him “Who are you?”

I got reply “I am you, your inner self, who's been watching you since your firststep, even i can say your first breath.”

“How is it possible? If my conscience comes outside my body, how can i breathe, my heart can beat?”

I got a surround voice “It is you who think that you cannot live without me. But let me tell you, from the day one, I am independent. Whenever you commit a crime, petty or big, eg. Stealing a pencil from friend's bag, taking out money from father's pocket to buy cigarettes, fighting with friend even when you were cheating on him, bank robbery and the latest addition of murdering a couple for such a low amount of money few minutes ago”.

“How can you know about my deeds?” i queried, “I have never told anybody”.

“Thats what i am telling you, you never told such things to anybody, but i am aware of your each and every deed, because i m you!!”

“Where were you earlier?” I asked “when i didn't have money to buy a pencil and got thrashed from Headmaster. I was made to stand outside the class because of that”

“Where were you when my father continuously scolded me saying that you want money for buying cigarettes. Finally i took cigarettes and became a chain-smoker today?”

“Where were you when my friends teased me for the black scar on my face? So i have to give him similar mark so that in future, he never thinks of doing the same thing”.

“Where were you when i was hungry for days because of insufficient money. Who would paid debt if i had not done a bank robbery”

“I had to murder the couple because now i am a wanted criminal. If i had not done so, they would have told police and i would have been hanged”.

He replied “I was always with you, trying to tell you what was right and what was wrong. And now i want to tell you what would happen if you don't listen to me”.

“What should i do now? I am tired of this life. I have lots of money but nowhere to spend”.

Don't worry. I am always with you. I would tell you the right path, it is sure that you will be happy within your conscience”.

“What should i do?” i was crying.

“You should go and distribute your money in the charity and for the needed ones. For your life, i say that surrender to the police so that your misdeeds 'quota' gets finished here on this planet”.

Then only i woke to find myself in a pitch dark place.

How did you like the story ??
