Mother: It\’s night, lie down quietly and go to sleep.
Girl: No, I don’t want to sleep.
Mother: Whether you want or not, you have to sleep today.
Girl: Why?
Mother: Why! A ghost is standing outside.
Girl: No, don\’t say that, I\’m scared.
Mother: That\’s why I am telling you to lie down early, otherwise he will come here.
Girl: Quickly put on my quilt, and cover my head. Then the ghost will not be able to see me.
Mother: Yes, don\’t take your head out at all or else he will see.
Dad: Hey, from which direction did the sun rise today? How did the baby lie down so early?
Mother: Don\’t make noise. She lied down with great difficulty, when it is said that the ghost is standing outside.
Girl: Why, is he really not standing?
Dad: He\’s standing.
Girl: Where?
Dad: Standing outside the door.
Mother: Do you want to see?
Girl: No, I\’m scared.
Father: No, now we will make you see it. Come, join us.
(They all come out of the room)
Girl: Where is he, here outside the door?
Mother: He is hiding behind the wall in the front of us.
(They all move to the nearby wall)
Girl: Where is he, here too?
Mother: Oh, he is here, but he is not visible with eyes.
Girl: Please stand still for a while, let me listen.
Dad: What are you listening to?
Girl: The ghost must be saying something, his voice I have to hear.
Mother: Ha, ha, ha! We cannot even hear the voice of ghost.
Girl: Well, then let me just touch him with my hand.
Mother: You cannot even touch the ghost and even the ghost cannot touch you.
Girl: Is it so…
Mother: What are you thinking while standing here?
Girl: Ha, ha, ha! Ha ha ha ha!
Mother: What happened, why are you laughing so loud?
Girl: Oh my mom, you found only me to make me a fool! You said that the ghost is standing outside and now you are saying that neither he himself is visible nor can he see anyone else; No one can hear him or touch him with hands.
Mother: Yes, so what?
Girl: One who neither can see nor speak, nor can touch, then it means that nothing like this exists at all. And how can one harm me if he even does not exist at the first place.
Earlier, you made me scared. But my mother, from today onwards you can say whatever you want, but you cannot scare me by talking about a ghost.
Whether I go somewhere alone, even if it is darkness of midnight, it can be anything like being careful, but I will never be afraid that a ghost will come from here or there.
Similarly, only ghosts are shown in TV and phone falsely, to scare us. But now onwards, I will not be afraid. Only a madman will be afraid of that which is not there at all, I won’t be afraid of such thing. And neither can anyone make me fool now using the name of ghost.
Mother: You are right. From today onwards I too will not scare you by the name of a ghost, why? Because, in reality there exists no such thing as a ghost. But you have to go to bed just on time.
Girl: This is the right thing you said! Let\’s go to sleep now.
(Then they all went to sleep)
