Short Story 20 : Fallen Into The Clutches Of The Humans
Fallen Into The Clutches Of The Humans
- T ABRAHAM
It was the last day of the spring and the start of autumn. Pinky was cleaning the Blossom cottage. To her surprise Pinky found a dusty door near their entrance which was locked with five chains. ‘Mama…. Where does this door lead to?’, asked Pinky to Mrs. Cephal. ‘Pinky… don’t try to enter that door’, said Mrs. Cephal to Pinky and went to sleep. It was around nine o’clock when Pinky had started to clean the cottage. But Pinky had a burning desire to open the door.4.jpg)

Pinky checked with her mother and father. ‘They are in deep sleep’, Pinky said to herself and started to search for the keys. Pinky found out three keys which were kept hidden under the potted plant near the entrance. ‘Almost opened the door. I need two more to enter into this mysterious door’, said Pinky to herself and went about searching for the remaining keys. Pinky had managed to find out one key buried near the rose plant which was there in their garden. The other key was found under the carpet which was in their living room.
By the time Pinky had managed to unlock the door and open it, Mrs. Cephal came to the living room to have some water. ‘I have sore throat. I need some water’, said Mrs. Cephal to herself and got the water bottle kept on the table. Pinky went hiding behind the sofa and Mrs. Cephal noticed that the door which was kept unlocked. ‘Pinky…’, called Mrs. Cephal. But Pinky did not respond. ‘The portal to the human world is unlocked and it can pull in anybody who goes near it’, said Mrs. Cephal.
Mrs. Cephal tried to close the door but unfortunately the door had suddenly opened and pulled her inside. ‘Help! Help!’, cried Mrs. Cephal and before Pinky could come for her rescue the door forcibly pulled in Pinky as well.
Mr. Cephal was in a deep sleep and he woke up once it was morning. He was quite confused with the nightmare he got during the night when Pinky and her mother were transported into the human world. ‘Pinky and her mother were placed in a shop. No one bought them for months and suddenly I woke up‘, said Mr. Cephal to himself and went straight to the kitchen to have some water. Then while he was going to the living room he had noticed the door which was kept locked for years was now kept open. Suddenly he realised the absence of Mrs. Cephal and also his daughter.
‘Pinky… why did you do like this?’, sobbed Mr. Cephal. ‘If they have went to the human world. Even I would go there along with them’, said Mr. Cephal and went straight into the door and landed on the shop where his wife and daughter were kept for sale.
One of the supervisors of the shop asked the customers, ‘Madam, would you like to purchase all these three teddy bears for your granddaughter? It is a combo pack and we are offering a fifty percentage discount if you are going to purchase in bulk. We have received these three teddy bears this morning and they have been manufactured recently. So please do consider’. ‘Okay, then I will buy all of them’, said the old lady and took all the three of them to her home.
‘Thank you grandma’, said Little Raphel and took all the three teddy bears to her bedroom. Every night she slept with these three teddy bears whom she cuddled and also received comfort from them.
Even though the Cephals came into the human world by mistake they were being comforted by little Raphel and they were also received by her unconditionally, and were also being treated with utmost love and care.
