Chapter 9 The World Of Magic - Part 1

‘Happy birthday baby...’


‘I wish that everyday would be so fun!’


‘SLASH’


‘Mom? Dad?’


‘SPASH’


‘Mom... dad...’


“Mom!!!! Dad!!!”


Shiro who was sleeping since earlier suddenly woke up while screaming.


“Hufff hufff... What was... that...”, he was completely shocked with the nightmare that he had.


‘A nightmare...? It was one of the worst nightmares...’


Shiro was sweating profusely. His breathing was heavy and his heart beat wasn’t stable right now.


“Uhhh... what the...”


His abdomen wa alaining a lot for some reason she tk which he slowly lifted his shirt only to find a huge black mark.


“This...”


It seemed as if something had been slammed to his stomach.


Even if he touched it, it would pain a lot because of which he refrained from doing something like that as he didn’t want to feel the pain again and again!


He then finally opened his eyes wide and looked here and there only to find the room quite unfamiliar.


“Where am I?”


“Wasn’t I sleeping in my room?”


He had been thinking all along that the death of his parents was just a dream or a nightmare and nothing else.


He thought that he had fallen asleep in the bed in his room and probably after that he had the dream and right now when he found himself awake somewhere else, he was a bit confused.


“Is this... a hospital?”, he asked himself after looking at the bed in which he was lying.


He could see the blood pack that was hanging nearby. It was a typical modern hospital without a doubt but the question was - ‘what was he doing here?’


He slowly tried to get down from the bed on which he was resting when suddenly someone came through the door.


“Ah!!! You are awake!!!”


The same woman who had carried him all the way from his home till here asked and rushed towards him and hugged him.


He thought that the woman was crazy as he has no idea about who she was as he had never met somekne like her.


“I’m so glad that you are alright...”, she said.


Shiro felt it to be suffocating and he wanted to push her away right now but suddenly he could feel his shoulders a bit wet.


It was basically due to the drops of tears that came from her eyes.


It indeed seemed as if she was genuinely worried about Shiro and probably that was why she was crying.


Even if the tears were fake, it gave him a weird satisfaction for some reason.


For the first time in his life he felt such a genuine happiness from someone else.


“Yes... I’m alright...”, he ended up answering her after looking at her smile and worrisome expression.


He then looked towards him with eyes filled with tears and said, “I don’t know what would have happened if we had arrived a bit later...”


“Huh?”, Shiro was confused when he heard that.


“A bit later?”


“What donyiu mean by that?”, he asked.


He wanted to know about the current situation in which he was. He didn’t know his surroundings nor did he know how he reached here.


The only one to converse with him right now was the woman who just entered who seemed to be talking with him and showing her expressions genuinely so he thought it was best to ask her.


“Oh, I guess you were fainted that time...”, she sighed.


“Ya?”, Shiro was still confused so he just nodded to what she asked or said.


“So What happened was...”


She explained the entire scene that had taken place due to which his parents had died. More than that he was also told varies things about magic which saved him.


For a second he thought that he was actually talking to a psychopath or some mental patient who had run away from her Room.


But her eyes clearly said that she was telling the truth and it was nowhere like that of a patient’s!


“So you are telling me that this so called magic saved me?”, he asked.


It was hard to digest but for some reason he was accepting it properly which the woman found it to be weird.


“Yes...”, she nodded her head and agreed to what he had asked.


“Then can you provide me with a proof?”


Shiro was yet to completely believe it and thus he asked for a proof.


It was by no means easy to prepare a proof if someone was trying to prank him or lie to him so he thought that the woman would hesitate for a while but quite the opposite happened.


She agreed almost instantly to his request!


She then flashed her left hand towards him and then said something in some weird language which Shiro wasn’t able to understand.


All of a sudden a flower bouquet appeared out of nowhere.


“Huh? What the...”, Shiro was observing it clearly and keenly so that he wouldn’t miss anything but after looking at what happened, he could feel nothing other than be shocked!


“Hehe, you still don’t believe?”, while asking this she walked forward towards Shiro and then suddenly vanished.


“Where did she...”


Even before he could complete what he was asking, she appeared behind him and used her hands to close his eyes and then moved him towards the window.


“Look at that Shiro... now do you believe that this is a magical world?”, she asked after removing her hands from his face.


Shiro wanted to scold her for doing such a thing but his voice didn’t come out from his throat.


In fact he forgot about it almost instantly just after looking at the scene from the window.


“Are you...”


“...kidding me?”


He was completely shocked when he saw Manu people glyinhq Nd traveling whikebhsing the carpets.


There were many others who used the broom to fly and others were casting magics to make foods at the stall.


Some other people were talking with each other while the newspapers in their hands were automatically turning the leaves.


“This is a... magic world?”, Shiro was completely amazed after looking at it.


He wanted to try all those things that was happening. His smile seemed eye catching.


The woman successfully did what she wanted initially - ‘To help him forget the incident for now and let him enjoy!’


And that was how Shiro was first introduced to the world of Magic!
