A Demon Friend Inside Me

CHAPTER 32: HOLY WATER

Raj's Pov

I came outside from the bathroom, and my face was sweating, and I looked afraid.

We have to go from here now, as soon as possible.

But, Raj, what happened? 

What's wrong with you? You are not okay. You have to get treatment.

I will, Anshika, but for now. Please try to understand. Just leave this hospital and come with me.

Then I took Anshika and Mr. and Mrs. Agarwal with me.

We came outside of the hospital, and then I stopped a cab, and then Mr. and Mrs. Agarwal got seated, but Anshika didn't want to go, and I didn't want to make any scene. So I sent Mr. and Mrs. Agarwal to their house. (I was in panic and wanted to make all of them safe.)

If you're not going into this hospital, then we can go into another one, but you have to need treatment.

I was in a panic, and I didn't pay attention to her. I stopped at another cab.

I'm not going anywhere, Raj. (She said it in anger.)

Listen to me, Anshika. I know it sounds weird, but the world is in danger, and I have to go somewhere to save it. Just don't worry; I will come back soon, and then I have a very important talk to have with you.

I sat in the cab and told her to just wait for me. And don't be stressed. 

The cab starts.

I'm going to wait for you. I also have something to say to you. (She shouted.)

I told the driver to take the cab into the graveyard.

Do you really want to go there, sir? (He asked.)

Do you have any problems? (I asked.)

No, but the time is 1 a.m.; that's why I'm asking you.

Don't worry, I already know how to deal with demons. You just drive.

As you say, sir,. (He was afraid.)

Then he headed to the graveyard.

And I'm just thinking, I saw the dead body of Andrew, so why did he just say that if I want him to see alive? It meant that it was just an illusion.

The bandages that are on my head are just too annoying, so I removed them. 

You're too young for this job. (I asked him.)

Yes, sir. Actually, I want to do something on my own. So I'm trying to earn some money. So I can pay my college fees, sir.

That's really good. I appreciate you.

And I started to think about how I could defeat him. Suddenly, I remembered something.

Stop the car. (I shouted.)

And the driver immediately stopped the car.

What happened, sir? (He asked in tension.)

Is there a temple or church close to us? Where can I get some holy water?

Yes, there is a church in the middle of the graveyard.

Are you serious? I don't think it's a good time for a joke.

No, I'm serious. Yes, there is also another church, but we have to go back.

Go ahead. I want the holy water.

Then he turned the cab and headed to the church.

Are you a priest or someone like that? (He asked me in a very polite tone.)

Not like that. But I think you have to just focus on your work and don't ask me a lot of questions. It's good for both of us. Did you understand? (I said it in a very serious tone.)

After 10 minutes, we reached the church, and I went into the church. 

I opened the door, but there was no one in the church.

I opened the lights and started to find the holy water.

The driver also joins me to find the holy water.

Sir, I found it. (The driver shouts.)

He got a bottle filled with holy water.

Well done. Now, let's go. I have to fix everything.

We came outside of the church, sat in the cab, and headed to the graveyard.

After 20 minutes, we reached the graveyard.

I came outside of the cab and paid him.

I looked at the graveyard, took a deep breath, and started to enter the graveyard.

Suddenly, he shouted at my back and came outside from the car.

What do you want now? (I asked in anger.)

I don't know, sir, what you're going to do, but it looks very terrifying. I want to see it and want to help you, sir.

No, you're too young, and you don't need to come into my work. Just leave. It's not safe for you.

But, sir, I always wanted to see something like that.

I'm not going to say anything. Just leave.

Then he got upset and started to leave.

And then I turned around, took a deep breath, put the bottle of holy water in my pocket, and began to walk towards the cemetery. When I looked around, the place was completely dark.

It appears terrible, and an owl is sitting on a tree, howling.

His sounds make this scene more horrible. I was too afraid of him now. I remembered everyone, whoever I loved.

I took my first step in the cemetery, and the wind started to make a storm.

The moon was hiding in the clouds, and the dark clouds started to come into the sky.

The leaves are starting to move because of the heavy flow of wind.

I looked everywhere, but there was no one—just me and the coffins.

I saw a church in the middle of the graveyard.

I started to go there.

I reached the door of the church. I took a deep breath again and opened the door smashingly.

The place looked like it hadn't been opened for a decade. Everywhere is just dust and darkness.

There are some benches that are filled with dust. 

I opened my phone's torch and started to look everywhere.

I found a switch board. I opened all the buttons. 

And the light has come. A fan also started.

And the dust started to fly and mix with the air.

I can't see anything. I pressed the buttons again, and the fan stopped.

The church was filled with darkness again.

I opened my eyes and tried to open the lights again.

I pressed every button individually, so the fan didn't open again.

All the lights opened again, and I looked around and saw the demon standing in front of me.

Welcome, Raj. (He said it in a devilish voice.)
