What the Fish Page #7

---

It's in Gurgoan.

- Great.

Day after tomorrow?

Are you leaving tomorrow?

Why? Do you want something else?

- No.

If you're leaving,

let me stay in the house.

And...it's your decision.

Call me.

See you. Bye.

Eat. Eat all you want.

Hello.

- Still sleeping.

If you don't practise

your efforts will be in vain.

Just watch.

Ravi was saying that

Bhalla was all praises?

About me?

No. The fritters.

Stupid.

He was saying you will

definitely be selected.

And listen.

Be on time for

the trials tomorrow.

Listen.

Can I get the number

of Vijender's manager?

Why?

You know...I'll start

receiving offers for ads.

Fool..

- Hello. Hello.

Hello.

Oh no! What now?

Here you go.

Now this is your house,

and so is the fish.

Go in and get it changed.

That Sardar's a difficult man.

I've a beef with him.

It's dead.

He won't exchange it.

He's a cheat.

Of course he will.

It was ill...not well..

or was run-over..

At least he'll

give you a discount.

He's robbing people.

Fine, let me see.

The dead never speak.

And, where's the bill?

I never saw you before?

- Acting smart, are you?

The SHO is a close friend.

You won't swim either.

Pammi.

The customer is always right.

Sir, let me take a look.

I get it.

It's not your fault.

You took a single fish,

didn't you?

Yes. So?

So what? Must have died

in three days.

Yes:
SC)?

Pammi. Get the pair.

Sir, the fish never lives alone.

Buy a pair.

No extra-charge.

Rs. 1500.

What for? It's your son's fault.

Why did he sell a single fish?

Sir, I just exchanged your dead fish.

But, you need to

pay for the other one.

Fine, Rs.1250 for you.

It's the first sale of the day.

Om!

Shall we?

- Yes.

Consider this your own home.

Whose photo is this?

My uncle and aunty.

They passed away five years ago,

in a car accident.

Mother's asking,

whose house is this..

"And, where are your parents?

My parents passed

away in an accident.

...when I was just a kid..

After that, aunty raised me.

But, you never told me this before.

May your soul rest in peace!

May your soul rest in peace!

May your soul rest in peace!

The door opened with a loud thud.

I crashed on the table.

And banged my head against the wall.

The witch came out growling.

Blood was dripping

from her long nails.

Her head was on the backside.

And she swooped out of the house.

She was very scary.

Hocus-pocus..

Come out!

She was wearing a white dress,

drenched in blood.

And a black mark on her forehead.

Hocus-pocus..

And, I don't think

this local black-magic.

I think its Voodoo.

And she was laughing at me.

Stop!

I can see it clearly.

- Then tell me.

It's a spirit from the past life.

It's hard to find one these days.

And, she's been following

me from my past life.

She wants revenge.

- Revenge?

Something terrible

is about to happen.

Absolutely terrible.

Very, very, bad.

Very. very. very bad.

The second one's missing too.

There's another one missing today.

Yesterday you said it's dead..

"So, I threw it out.

- Yes.

Has the other one gone

out for a walk?

I'm sure he's behind it.

He's made my life hell.

Next time you touch anything,

I won't spare you.

Don't get furious over him.

You invited us here.

I didn't know they'll

come along as well.

I was just saying..

I can't keep buying

fishes every day.

Each costs 1500.

All I'm asking is where's the fish?

What did she say?

It's gone back to heaven.

What the..

Hey. The fish is dead again.

Rascal.

You sell fake fishes.

Stop laughing.

Why do you bother me every day?

Get lost.

I don't know what's going on.

But the next fish

shouldn't disappear.

Don't touch me.

This time I'll give you fish..

...which will never disappear.

Go on.

Vicky, give him the fish.

Now I got you.

I was wondering how the fishes

were disappearing every day.

Rascal. This is not food.

Leave him!

I knew this will never happen.

I thought you're different.

You all are same.

I am going.

- But, I am not asking you to leave.

This is the city.

Try to understand.

Are you dead?

Open the door. Open.

Father. Father.

Stay away.

Stay away from that rascal.

- Laxmi.

Listen to me.

- He has no shame.

Laxmi..

Are you crazy?

What have you done?

How dare you flirt with my husband?

I will gouge your eyes out.

You said my secret will be safe.

That MMS ruined my life.

The world's laughing at me.

I will break your bones.

Get up!

Don't fret now.

How many times do I tell you..

...I didn't send that MMS to anyone.

Take a look.

You're behind all this.

- Stop it!

Don't you dare touch him.

You're a liar and a cheat.

We're leaving.

Where will you go?

- Sport's hostel.

I've talked to Bhalla sir.

What happened to its spots?

Mrs. Hullar sent me.

Just lean back for me.

Now, look left. Left.

Can somebody cover-up please?

Ma'am, phone.

Hello.

- Bh!

What'? Aunty!

I can't stand that bh!

Who? Who are you talking about?

Who else?

Call her daughter-in-law

or something else?

I don't get it.

She's made my life hell.

Aunty. You scared me.

She's not Indian.

Give her time to adjust.

She isn't human either.

She's a witch.

She belongs to a local tribe are.

This boy's ruined his life.
