Realization

Shraddha stood alone on that wide open terrace of her office building. She was all alone but was she really alone? She felt as if she was surrounded by 100 of people (or entities). She could sense their presence. She felt as if she was not alone but with a huge group. A group that was not visible to her eyes but their presence was being felt.

She started feeling heaviness in her chest. She was breathing heavily but it felt as if the air was not entering her lungs. She was feeling she was but she was sweating heavily. The place felt crowded though she was the only one present. She was still holding the container of her mother's famous chicken curry. The container got so heavy as if it was concentrating the gravity of the entire of planet. At one moment she felt as if she would not be able to hold on to the container. That is when a thought crossed her mind, "what if I drop the container here?"

She took the last look at the food that was going to be served to her team. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and said in her mind, "I do not know who you are and I do not even intend to know. This is for you. Please let me go. I do not mean to harm or disturb you. Please forgive me and let me go back safe and sound". She opened her eyes and slowly kept the container on the ground. As soon as she placed the container on the floor all the voices stopped. No more chanting of her name was heard. A pin drop silence followed. The silence to was equally uncomfortable. Shraddha started walking to the exit of the terrace and did not turn around.

Shraddha found that the door to the terrace was unlocked. She escaped from there and the door got locked again on its own. She managed to come back to her floor. That is when she realised that it had been two hours and her colleagues had been looking for her everywhere. They were unable to call or text her. Her phone was not reachable. Shraddha could not give an account for those two lost hour. Shraddha narrated her experience to her team members. The matter was escalated because it was considered to be a security lapse.

Shraddha was overwhelmed with the bizzare events that occurred that day. Her manager asked her to go home and rest. When she got home she was running a high fever. The fever continued and was not getting better with treatments. The diagnostic tests could not find out the reason for the fever. Finally after a couple of a days the fever recovered on its own without any medications.

Shraddha had decided that either she would ask for the remote working option or she would resign from the organisation. She had no intention of working at a place where the paranormal experiences were so profound. She did not want to try her luck by returning to that haunted place. She requested for remote working and it got approved too (her organization wanted her story out of the media and hence approved her request).

Shraddha worked with that organisation remotly for 3 years before moving to my organisation. Yet Shraddha had determined to find out the reason for this paranormal occurrence.
