Halloween Feast
The phone lay there on the bed, vibrating. Ravi entered the room, completely oblivious to the fact that his phone was in vibration mode and that someone was making constant attempts to reach him. After two minutes of continuous ringing, the phone disconnected, but it wasn't till half an hour after this that Ravi got to his phone. He saw many missed calls from the same number, which belonged to his new friend Sam. A month ago, Ravi met Sam, on his first day of college, but both of them immediately connected on various things and their friendship grew deeper fast. Ravi immediately dialed Sam's number, and as soon as Sam picked up the call, Ravi said, “I am so sorry Sam. My phone was on silent and I was getting ready for the party. I know I am late, but I will reach your house in another thirty minutes." To this, Sam responded, "It's okay. The thing is that you are the main guest at this party, and all of us are getting impatient now. Just arrive as soon as possible." Ravi told him that he would and hung the phone up. He couldn't help but think that there was something weird about Sam's voice today. Shaking it off as nothing, Ravi booked a cab. As the cab arrived and the trip started, the driver asked for the location for confirmation. As Ravi told him the address, the cab driver immediately stopped the vehicle on the side of the road. He turned around to look Ravi right in the eyes, and said, "Sir, are you sure that is the address? The app says that the address is different. The thing is that if that is the location you are going to, then I am not sure if I should take you there." Ravi was confused. He didn't understand a single word of what the driver was trying to say. He immediately said, "What are you talking about? My friend lives there and he has invited me to his house. Please drive and get me there as fast as you can. I have my booking, and it shows the correct location." The driver looked at him for a few moments, and then said, "I am not sure about what is wrong with that place, but there is something. I tried to warn you, but if you really want to go, then I will take you there." As soon as the driver said this, he turned back to face the road and started driving. Ravi could not understand why everyone was acting so weird today. He thought that they were trying to scare him since it was Halloween. Ravi was and always will be excited for Halloween as it was the scariest day of the year, plus he could scare people without getting into any trouble. He decided to ignore all this and was flooded with excitement to get to his friend's house. This was the first time Ravi was going to Sam's house.
