Shadows are the most normal things for people but not for
me. I never saw mine. I can see others with shadows when they are in the light
but I am the unfortunate person who is living without a shadow of my own. I feel incomplete without it. Now I know how
important a shadow is when I have lost it forever. I don’t know whether I will
ever get my shadow back or not. This is the strangest thing happened that
changed my life forever. This dreadful incident took place when I was in high
school. I used to live alone for my residence was far away from my school. I
lived alone because the house in which I took for rent was real creepy so
normally none of my friends agreed to live there. But I had to due to some
financial problems. And I never believed in supernatural things so it was a
little easy for me to live there. After my shifting there nothing really
happened for a week. But soon everything in my life changed….
One night when I was studying in my room I just felt that I
was being watched. Next moment I actually saw a shadow on the other side of my
window which was just beside my bed. I
couldn’t believe my eyes at first. Suddenly when it started to talk to me I was
almost going to faint but managed not to somehow. The shadow asked me in a real
heavy voice what I wanted. I couldn’t think of anything and fearfully asked him
who he was. He answered that the owner of the house captured him long ago made
him his servant. But after the death of his master he was trapped in that house
waiting for his new master and now he found me. At that time I was abusing
myself for not listening to my friends when they warned me about this ghost but
changed my mind hearing that he could grant any one wish but in return I will
have to give him something very valuable of mine. After a little thought I decided to ask for
my wish, as I became a little greedy at that time. I told him to make me good
at everything and it really happened. I realized it that after going to school
next morning. I became expert in almost
everything. I became famous among
everyone in my school. But after that I never saw that mysterious shadow again.
I was a little happy thinking that he forgot to take anything precious of mine
but soon my happiness turned to be my worst nightmare when I discovered that I
lost my shadow. That ghost servant took my shadow from me! I thought that what
could possibly go wrong without a shadow? But after losing my shadow I became
someone different. I always felt lonely and weak. I felt like I have lost my
heart. Although everyone liked me but I never wanted anyone. I became lost in
my own lonesome world. Every night I waited for that servant by the window but
it never returned. I still live in that house waiting for something miracle to
happen. I don’t know if I’ll ever see my shadow again. But if I ever meet that
ghost servant again I would definitely ask him to take everything that I wished
for and give my shadow back to me because I feel like I’m dying slowly without
it. I think the real owner of this house and the real master of the shadow
ghost may have also lost his life like this and now it is my turn…….
