After Hablu had finished his dinner, the rest have taken lesser food to save their energy. It's raining and they tiptoed towards the school as if it were a haunted house. The lights were off and everything in the park were distorted by its force wind. In-between the corridors, the gang, including the twins and Mayesha were reaching to the corner, where the Principal's room stood there.
They opened up the room, but what they saw, was quite shocking. A lot of inappropriate pictures of girls-especially those who were sixteen to eighteen, as well as the older newspaper articles regarding his past criminal records. It was quite shocking for the gang but at the same time, they were wondering what's behind the whole 'Dr. HSO' matter. Who was he? What does he have to do with Mustaqim? Was it...?
Anyway, they, especially George stole the evidence and realized that Mustaqim had left the door open, not only for his forgetful nature but, something more on its way. The rain stopped but it started cold, mists in the field and trees looked like monsters of an ancient temple. Henceforth, they ran away from that disastrous, unsettling mess that has been created.
After they walked out, they wondered they mystery among the whole school and more. In the morning, the students were wandering, until-an ugly presence turned the whole class soundless. A middle-aged, yet charismatic person wearing a suit, white shirt and pant. He might be on his 50s but appearance-wise, 30s that look unbelievable. His body language was quite weird, more like a creepy and perverted uncle. Only two girls were blushing but never learnt from the past incidents. Assuming his evidence, he was enraged with something that was never before, but controlled his anger. He was Ghalib Mustaqim.
"Good morning class,
So today, we will talk about stealing. So what's stealing? It's about taking things that are valuable to us. When someone steals, can't we bring back what has been taken from us? When someone steals, can't we destroy the thieves?"
A lot of students were petrified, whereas he noticed the blushing students and dragged their hair to his room. Until, he heard a loud sneeze outside his room, he forgot the girls and looked out. When he was about to enter, he was listening to the giggles of 'ghosts', spreading all over the place. Hence he was coming to the field, he heard some strange noises that his head started to hear that the bells are tolling. There, Mustaqim was screaming "YOU STAY AWAY! HOSSNE ARA! WHY ARE YOU COMING TO ME?"
Hossne Ara was no other than the girl who committed suicide a week ago. Most of the girls were marching and circled among the lines with the anger that has been thrown out and blamed all for him. All of a sudden, a shoe with a strong smell was punching on his face. Mustaqim was scared and about to run away, whereas other girls threw their shoes and stink balloons over and over. The girls realized that Hablu and the gang were responsible for scaring the crap out of Mustaqim.
Whilst the other members threw shoes on him after coming out of the walls, Hablu was going to the toilet but slipped from the peeled banana skin and bumped into the commode. Spans of memories and series of flashbacks just swing like something that happened to Hablu never before. He woke up, worn out and walked out of the toilet. Then he smirked and said "Let's mess it up!"
Hablu's whole body language has just changed from a seventh grader teenager to a wholly fledged adult. But there was something more. George, Arhaan, Ikkhon, the twins, Mayeesha and Ehsaan were chasing him, like a farmer lady racing to grab a chicken with a falling feather. His transition from a creepy uncle to a coward chicken has made the girls literally giggling. It's like in the stage, the script was over-dramatic, actors were over-acting and directors were over-directing.
Until the end, Mustaqim looked surprised at a familiar face that petrified him and his body was shaken. Slipped in the middle of the school corridor. Everyone stopped, shocked, staring at Hablu, entering like a Western Hero and the famous tune of Clint Eastwood's Western starrer, 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly' have been given under a background music, as if a showdown was about to begin.
"Dr. HSO or Haroon Shikder Ohee...It's a long time, my friend!" said Mustaqim in soft tone.
"Friend! Hmm... Do I look like a friend or a foe? You're a creepy uncle. Dude"
"Creepy uncle! I was your professor, remember?"
"A fraud, perhaps. Always try to charm out the girls with the bunch of narcissism and torn their life into pieces, with inappropriate behavior, even with naked photography. Isn't it against our ethics, professor?"
"Intimacy is part of life and biology, my dear".
"Though a minor? You're insane. Maybe, I spared you during my heydays, but this time, I won't. Surrender, professor! I think, you'll have a mother and sister in prison" said Hablu with sarcasm and deep tone.
"You arse!" screamed Mustaqim, crippling up on the floor.
Mustaqim started to attack. Then Hablu grabbed his arm and twisted in such a way that, he fell onto the dirty floor. When he was about to kick, Hablu kicked him back that slipped on the ground. He used his karate and judo techniques towards Mustaqim that he pissed his pants and loosened out, while only the period-heavy panties were smelling too much in between legs of him.
It was like in the old comics: POW! BAMM! DHISHKIYAAON! DHISHOOM!
"Since, when did he had his judo lessons?" exclaimed the overjoyed and excited Ehsaan.
"You will get to know it, later, Mephistopheles!" said Arhaan.
While George, Ikkhon, The Twins and Mayesha was cheerleading while they were fighting against each other.
The rest of the gang closed their eyes. Hence, he wore the pant and slipped to the floor. Suddenly, he was cocking like a chicken. Rather than giggling and laughing, they took him like a trash. It was way stranger than what usually, Hablu does during the whole time.
Mustaqim toned down his insanity. Until Hablu and the gang grabbed him out but he was jumping like a chicken, despite grabbing him. Later on, the police, along with Sajed entered the scene as well as the mental asylum ambulance. George and the gang were giggling when Mustaqim was cocking like a scared chicken 'Cock! Cock!' even chickens are braver than him.
Police said "Sajed, who are the kids collecting the evidence?"
Sajed took Hablu, George, Ikkhon, Mayesha, The Twins: Safa and Sifa, Ehsaan and Ikkhon. And the police had taken a good look at Hablu, as he seemed familiar, not only from the newspaper articles, but some old posters, too. Perhaps, it was more of the story to tell another time, that only Arhaan knew about Hablu's mysterious persona. Anyway, the police investigated The Principal's room, along with the founder of the school. The founder, Jahan Ara Begum realized her mistake, recruiting Mustaqim as the Principal by not reading his previous criminal record, she had an utter disgust in the room full of period panties, as well as inappropriate photographs.
Flashback- The Musketeers including the twins and Mayesha have gone to Sajed's shop, right after they ran away from the 'haunting school'. Hence, Sajed was informed, even various evidences were given. As Sajed was friends with the police officer and the school's founder, they were anxious. Hence, thanks to the Musketeer gang, they were easy on the evidences- Flashback ends.
After the police procedure, Jahan Ara hoped out of the room and started a speech
'Dear Students or Citizens of Dhaka,
I, Jahan Ara, the founder of Altab-Rabiah Girls School would likely to announce some news. As our former Principal, Dr. Ghalib has been sacked due to his criminal record, such as forgery, money laundering and most of all, the power of abuse with students.
Hence, our heroes, The studious Safa and Sifa, honest Mayesha, the kid detective George, distractor Ikkhon, Ehsaan The Brave, highly intelligent Arhaan and mysterious Hablu have given us the evidence against this old rustic man, infamous for doing inappropriate things, they will be rewarded as the Hero of The Year. It's thanks to their courage, sincerity and integrity.'
She added 'so, it's no longer the haunted house'.
Everyone in the valley got the colors of joy, every parents were cheering their children up for their heroism. Except Hablu, who was alone, sitting in a sad and astonished state. Ehsaan and Arhaan looked at him, sitting on the riverside bench, holding a flower. He wasn't on his usual self. Then, the two Musketeers went near him and held his shoulder lovingly. They asked 'What happened?"
"I don't have a family, just as I have a brother doesn't mean, I have to stay together with him" said Hablu sadly.
"Don't forget that, no matter what we are, we are brothers!" said both Arhaan and Ehsaan.
"We're there for you" said Ikkhon and George.
"DE LA GRANDE, AMOUR!" screamed Hablu with joy.
The rest of the Musketeer gang held Hablu's central palm. They joyfully screamed 'YAK YAK!'
And jumped with joy. After all, they were awarded with 'The Hero of The Year 2002'.
Hey...wait, we're in the half of the story...There're a lot of things to talk about.
Weeks later, the gang except for Ehsaan went to the examination hall. It was quiet and most of all, they were attentively doing their exams. Less noise did make up a peaceful environment. Despite the lack of electricity, fresh air has done a lot better over time. Then the invigilator walked and asked "Where's your friend, Ehsaan?"
"He's on his way" said Arhaan.
Then he realized that, Ehsaan was on a deep sleep, when he walked past through. He just visited Cox's Bazar with his mom, an ideal vacation spot for a sandy beach. He just came the night before the exam. Was he prepared?
Arhaan and the rest of the gang went to Ehsaan's house, and his mom's right now, attending on her lectures in the university. Ehsaan was on deep sleep as the gang initially thought to be dead. Until, he was snoring high. After that, Arhaan called Hablu, who just was near Ehsaan's house. The four carried the bed like a palanquin and everyone, including Sajed was shocked to look at that state. The worst part was, Ehsaan was decorated like a bride. It was more embarrassing that what it was. It was so heavy that George was almost jumping out like a chicken but controlled himself. Then they reached all the way to the exam hall.
Everyone in the exam hall were shocked, the Musketeers rocked! Extremely smashing.
After that, the moment Ehsaan woke up, while saw him in such a way that he was a Golden Goose.
"Oh Shit! I forgot the exam" said Ehsaan as he hoped out of the bed.
"GO! EHSAAN! GO!" said Hablu.
The others chanted with the same thing. Until, he lazily done the exam. Then the gang, including Ehsaan took his bed back home. It was so embarrassing but, it was for them, a special one.
After a month, the results were out. Everyone looked at it. Ehsaan thought he would fail the subject. Little did he knew, he looked at the first list and stunningly, Ehsaan got a distinction of 99 percent, despite lazily doing the exam. The others also had similar marks, except Ikkhon, he got 85- despite their marks, it didn't destroy their friendship. The only person absent was Hablu... His mystery will sure be opened one day...
