“It's
time for you all to say your last prayer.” a terrorist, whose face
was covered in a black mask,
pointing
his AK47 to kids, who were abducted in their school. After waiting
for a the signal from
his
mates for the last 4 hours, he finally decided to go with the
protocol. A kid, 4 inch taller than AK47, sat on his knees, joined
his hands and started his innocent prayer. “O lord, I thank you for
gifting me a great day today. Thank you for a giving me tasty food
prepared by my mom. Thank you for giving me good friends and
teachers.” Terrorist interrupted his prayer “Enough!! Shut up
now!!”. “I am not finished yet.” , the kid replied innocently
holding his tie with his tiny little fingers. Terrorist hit him with
rear wooden stock of AK47. The kid fainted down and fell on the floor
with his nose badly bleeding. Fear started reflecting on innocent
faces. The other kid, 4 inch taller than the previous one, tried to
overcome his fear and sat down on his knees and started praying.
“Thank you lord for blessing me with mom and dad. Thank....” .
“Shut up you!! Do you want to lie on the floor bleeding too??”
the terrorist shouted with all the anger he had. But the kid
continued with his prayer. “Thank you for giving me mother who woke
me up with love in every morning.” Terrorist lifted his gun to kill
the kid. Immediately, the other kid, standing 10 feet away from him,
in the corner of the class, started saying his prayer. “Thank you
for blessing me with a dad who works all day and brings me my
favorite sweets every night.” . The Terrorist, completely agitated,
rushed towards him. But then, the other kid, 15 feet away, standing
diagonally opposite corner, completely scared, started his prayer.
“Thank you for blessing me with a friend who shares his video game
with me.” The Terrorist, now restlessly ran towards him. But then,
a boy, elder to the other one starts, “Thank you blessing me with
mom who cooks food for me even when her
hands are burned. Thank you for blessing me with dad who makes sure
that I don't fall down and get hurt while learning bicycle. ” Every
prayer was becoming more stronger than before. Completely confused
terrorist, now started firing his AK47 in air shouting “If you
don't stop I will shoot you”. He ran out of the bullet in his gun.
His AK47 bullets failed to kill the strength of the kids and there
prayers. All he could hear was innocent prayers of 67 innocent kids
at a time.“Thank you lord for helping learn table of 2..... Thank
you lord ... Thank you lord....”. and then he threw his gun towards
a kid, started slapping the kids one by one, with his rough hand. He
lifted a kid and threw him away. He kept shouting “Stop it!! OR I
will kill you.” . Though extremely terrified, nothing could stop
the innocent prayers of those kids. After few minutes his angry voice
faded into request “Please stop!! Stop for the Gods sake”. But
the sound of “Thank you lord ” continued. “No No!! please
stop!!” , Terrorist helplessly shouted and started running towards
the closed door to escape.
But
while running away, he slipped over the blood of a kid who fainted
down. He stopped and kept staring at the blood. He could not move and
stood like statue. Innocent voices of prayers still kept pitching his ears. Tears started rolling down his eyes. He sat down beside this
kid and started crying.
All
the students surrounded him. A 5 yr. old innocent girl slowly
approached him, took his mask off from his face, wiped his tears
running down his eyes. “Don't worry. It's all OK now. You can pray
with us.” And all the students continued in one voice “Thank you
lord...”
