An Alien Abduction Which I Survived or I didn't : Chapter 1

Chapter 1: The Night I wasn't Waiting For.

Alien Abduction.

"The Story is About an Ordinary but Special teenager Anupam. His fantasy was to witness or be a part of an Alien Abduction but one fine night when he begged it to be a dream, it all turned real.

This is a Story About a Guy Who survived an Alien Abduction or He Didn't."

"Alarm Rings"

"Where Where, Where is the Damn Phone" and as I sluggishly said "Where" 10 times, I finally grabbed my little phone in the corner of my bed just before it was about to take a hit on the floor and disintegrate into all its constituents. With a slight boner I went to my bathroom to release my pressures. 

"A Math assignment, java assignment.." as I was making my To-do list for the day, on parallel I started calculating the number of fucks I give to my To-do List and parallel to that I also started thinking that how many things which I do in my life are meaningless. Working on thoughts of my Restless mind I half-consciously did my breakfast and ran to the bus stop to complete rest of my monotonous day events.

Like every other student in the college, I really wanted to find my worth in this world, but mostly my worth resided in Marvel or DC World where I test Iron Man Suits with Tony Stark. You can call me a Unrealistic wannabe but well, imaginations have no boundaries, I exchanged Wassups with my mate at the Bus stop and took the 1 hr. regular road trip to my college. 

The Day was really usual, nothing which I could react upon differently until my friend came up with the topic I can lecture for hours.

"Aliens, yes I am going to give presentation on that." said Lakshay. 

"Seriously, what do you know about Aliens except the spelling."  I replied. "Well, In the End, there is always Google." said Lakshay. I wasn't in mood for any debates that day so I hummed my friend on his stupid theories about Aliens which he read on Internet like Aliens abducted cows, there are aliens in Area 51 and many more. I am always left in a confusing state when it comes to extra terrestrial beings and who won't, You can't say they exist as you have no proof and then you can't say they don't as we are living in a world of uncertainties and the best is you don't have any way to find out the truth except believing on theories made up by people.

I also hated the part when anybody would talk about aliens, zombies or even Pokémon's, then it all gets stuck into my mind and I keep on processing these thoughts even till late nights. Plus my girlfriend also has interest in paranormal and alien stories but yeah she is limited to only hearing such stories and when it comes to real life she is quite afraid of encountering anything of such sort.  On the contradictory, I always wanted to get abducted and when I told her about my wish.

"Seriously? Your life is almost close to perfect and you will leave it all to go to some different place totally unknown with weird creatures?" asked Aisha.

"Why not, I mean it would be just like chosen to go into a space by NASA, there is No guarantee of coming back even in the safest rides, is it?" but again she was a little disturbed with the fact that I really want to leave her and everything behind for a pack of useless beings who would perform test on me like rats. Well, she may be right, but anyways Who says I am going to get abducted, it's all my imagination. 

The whole day I didn't attend any class and surfed the internet about Alien documentaries, I found sites which stated articles like "how to escape if there is an Alien abduction", finally I found a group of people who were more crazy than me. Anyways, with the thoughts keep running on my mind, as I already read all the theories about aliens and how bad it could get if you are abducted by them, I started to get into my girlfriend's shoes, I started to become scared. 

In the evening when I returned to my beloved home, my current thoughts totally contradicted to my morning ones, " I Don't want to get abducted now, Why will I want it at first place, I am happy here, I am good at studies, games, let's say almost everything, why I want to go." I said it loud to myself in my room. As soon as I completed my introspective statement, I smelled fragrance.

I have never smelled anything like this before, this was really alluring fragrance, I started imagining the television commercials in which girls run towards guy with strong erotic fragrances while getting attracted to this one for real because there was no one around me wearing that perfume, it was coming from the flat on a floor above us and then I heard a little knock on my door.

"Dinner is ready." Mom said. 

"Hey Mom, come in, doesn't it smell really awesome in our balcony?" I insisted my mom to come in and smell through my window attached to our balcony. My mom took a big breathe and hummed me. I found it weird, It was such a pleasant fragrance and my mom reacted as if there was nothing then usual pollution in the air and then slowly even I stopped sensing it, it seemed like the pleasant part of my day was gone.

My mind was really bursting with the ideas on Aliens, ghosts and what not because I spent the whole day thinking about all these stuffs. Now, it was all getting too much scary for me. I didn't wanted to sleep alone that night but then I didn't wanted to share my fears of getting abducted by aliens as well, because you know that would be pretty stupid and crazy. 

"It's just a night, it will pass away." I calmed myself and though I stay up till late nights but that night I slept early. I surely knew something is going to happen tonight, its going to rock my world, but then clock went past midnight, then 1 am, then 2 and even the scary hour of the night that is 3 am past away pleasantly. I woke up at 6 am because I usually can't sleep much, my batteries have a fast speed recharge. Hell yeah, I survived the night of Abduction, I was feeling very happy. I continued my morning schedule, again exchanged wassups on my bus stop with my mate and was at my college within an hour, 

But then, I witnessed an Event which made me think my every move twice. "Aliens, yes I am going to give presentation on that." said Lakshay. The only difference was that earlier we were in the hall way when he said this to me previously and now we were in a class room. "Haven't you already told me that?" I asked him.

"Dude, just now Akshay told me that he gave presentation on my topic yesterday so I have to shift on much more weird topic such as Aliens."

I was literally in a state of shock but my mind is quite absorbent and I am really hard to move off my ground, so I kept the conversation going without saying anything weird. My day passed away usually and I hugged my girlfriend and took the bus to reach home. 

I was quite messed up. "How can I know it before Lakshay said it, and God damn didn't he already said the same thing yesterday?" I asked myself continuously as I was quite disturbed. The whole alien and weird stuff was making me crazy. As somehow when  I calmed myself down the pleasant fragrance came knocking my window again and so as my mom. Now, things were getting slightly more weirder. I managed to reason my event with lakshay as a strong déjà vu but what do I call this now? My mom called me for dinner and I insisted her to come in. "Dude I need to figure out what's going on." I asked myself and then asked her. "Mom, really? don't you smell anything like perfume?" I really wanted my Mom to answer me appropriately so that I can get back into my Wits. "Yes, that's really pleasant. I guess our neighbors bought really strong flagrance soaps and now come down, dinner is ready." answered my mom. "Hah, Its all good, yes, Incident with lakshay was déjà vu and our neighbors have got new soaps, that's all." and I rested my case and slept a deep fine sleep  later that night.

On the third day, Lakshay literally killed my pleasant mood by saying the same statement for the third time in a row for continuous three days, not even a letter different "Aliens, yes I am going to give presentation on that.".

Now I thought that he was messing up with me so I didn't talk to him for rest of my day. I was so disturbed that I didn't had my lunch, attended my classes and went back to my home with a sense of despair of getting out of my mind from these weird stuffs. "Am I Going crazy?" I asked myself and in no time my question stood up for itself when I smelled the fragrance again. But Enough was enough. I walked into my slippers and ran to the to the floor above us and rang the bell. "C'mon open the door, its making me crazy." I repeated the sentence with state of anxiety pouring all over me. Nobody answered. "Dude, seriously?" and I went back to my flat. Everybody could tell that I wasn't normal, everyone asked me what happened to my mood both at my house and then in college and for the fourth day Lakshay repeated the same statement and I punched him in his face. The fragrance was a friendly visitor now and I seriously wanted to know what the hell was going on so I tried to take the toll on reality for once. After the fragrance went away, I called my mom and after few minutes she came to my door and knocked. "Yeah sure come in." I said. "So, what's up?" my mom asked. With all the courage in my heart I asked my mother "Smell this, doesn't it smell really awesome in our balcony?" and I really wanted my mom to make a huge favor to me by saying something which would not make my situation a whole lot more crazy.

"Yes, that's really pleasant. I guess our neighbors bought really strong flagrance soaps don't you want to have dinner tonight? It's quite late already." 

As soon as she repeated the lines like a trained robot on my face without even smelling hard enough

I became numb, now I could literally feel no ground below my feet. I was in mid air, floating without gravity of reality and with a thought "What the hell is going on? there is no fragrance, there is Nothing which I could literally smell, Why did she said that?" and then I somehow came into my senses. "yes, I will be there is a minute."  I didn't went down for dinner that night. My mom brought it to my room and smiled at me but I didn't smiled back.

It all felt so fake, everything felt so dummy. What happened so suddenly? It was all fine..What is happening to me now? All these questions were killing me. I really wasn't waiting for any night like this but now I was in one and it was getting a hell lot longer.
