My Toothbrush Friend

A ghost

It would have been a normal day like I used to spend but......

..............................................................................

I am a normal high school student with average grades. I have good friends at school and I love hanging out with them. Recently, my family conditions are a bit complicated. There are some financial problems.

My parents always push me towards studies. They want me to study hard and expect me to bring good grades. But Still I don't care much.

My hobby is day dreaming........

Hello, I am Ella and I am 17 years old.

Like always I am sitting on my classroom seat and wondering how beautiful this earth is. The view outside the window is so beautiful and it's becomes even more interesting during these boring classes. Well that how usually I spend my time in school.

So let me tell you my story......

..............................................................................

A few days ago when I used to live in a different city, I heard my parent's conversation. They were planning to move to move to a different place. And yesterday we shifted to our hometown. They won't tell me the reason.

I was happy to find that this house was bigger than than the pervious one. Actually it's my grandmother's house but she's gone.... So we are here. The best thing is that I have got my own room. You know privacy matters the most to a high schooler like me. Everything was good.

Later I unpacked my belongings and tried to settle down the things. It was a tiring day and I went to sleep.

..............................................................................

Today

I woke up in the morning and and went to wash my face and picked up my toothbrush but suddenly I heard a voice '' hey you idiot, don't you dare put me in your dirty mouth''. My jaw dropped with a shock and I shouted 'aaaagh'........

What the hell was going on.......

Do ghosts exist????

What was the voice I heard .....

Listening to my shriek my parents came running to me and they asked me about what happened. And when I told them about the voice I heard they said that I must have mistaken since I was tired. Thinking that they make sense I thought I must have hallucinated.

And then I again picked up my toothbrush..... But suddenly it developed a mouth, a pair of eyes a pair of tiny hands and a pair of tiny feet. I rubbed my eyes since seeing something like that doesn't makes any sense. But when I opened my eyes again..... I could see the same creepy creature again...... Wait, a toothbrush shouldn't be considered as a creature....... I was terrified to that creepy object........ After a few seconds of silence that creepy object spoke'' hey you dumb kid, why are you staring at me so intensely ''

I was shocked to see something like this. I shouted again at top of my voice and my parents again came running to me. I told them everything about toothbrush but they don't seem to believe a single word. And when I showed them the toothbrush, it was back to normal.

My mom said " Enough is enough, I know you just don't want to go to your new school so you are creating troubles. Get ready and go to school immediately" Saying this she left.

After she left..... That toothbrush again projected out its parts- hand, legs and face.

This was crazy....... How did I meet such a monster.

Settlement

What was that in my hand- 'a monster' ?????

Aghhhhhhhhhhhh.......

" Hey girl, don't freak me out. Keep it down." said that creepy object.

Seriously, how can anyone remain calm when a toothbrush speaks and imitates a person. But I mustered my courage and asked " So, what are you actually? " "Max, I am Max and it was terrible to meet you. " that thing answered. It was horrible for me to meet it as well.

Then I took that toothbrush in my hand and opened the window to throw it out but that thing cried" Please, no please!...... Don't throw me out of the window." It started crying, so I stopped. It would be awful to treat a living object like that. So I kept it on my study table discarding the idea of throwing it away.

But I guess I made a grave mistake. That object is a complete chatter box. Once it opens it mouth, it never shuts it.

Well then I hurried for my school. After all its my first day at school.......

So that's what happened and currently I am sitting in the class room.

"Ella, Ella....... may I have your attention " my teacher called." ah, Yes Sir "I said. He asked me a question and I blurted out" I don't know the solution "." It's your first and you are showing no interest in studies at all..... If you are going with this attitude then don't expect much from your result. " he said in an angry tone.

........................................................

(Afternoon)

My whole day was a complete mess. I couldn't pay any attention to my classes. That thing is the cause. I must get rid of it.

............................................................. .(At home)

I must get rid of it. I can't live like this any more. "I am going to throw you out. Hah.. Haha.... Hahahahahah" I said. Listening this the toothbrush said" I will grant your (3) three minor wishes per day. But remember not to ask for impossible things... So, do you still want to throw me away? "Wow! Is that true... Well, if a toothbrush can be alive then any crazy thing is possible in this world." OK I agree to let you stay here" I said. "I don't believe you who knows if you go back on your words later. We must sign a contract. It's better for both of us." said that toothbrush. Even though signing the contract was too much but still it made a point. "OK let's do that then" I said.

........................................................

(The contract)

Party A- Ella Evans

Party B- Max the toothbrush

Party A will provide shelter to party B and party B would grant three(3) minor favor per day.

........................................................

(After signing the contract)

Max the tooth brush began " Hey call me Max and pay me some respect. And don't give that disgusting look on me. You are really manner less. You must respect me. Blah, blah, blah....... Blah" (and it continues). Seriously I regret letting him stay in here. Can't he shut up for a few seconds. He's a complete blabbering machine. It's causing headache.

(Meanwhile Max continues to chat nonstop)

Hoodwinked​

I am happy that I will be granted three(3) wishes daily . SO what should I ask for? To live in America, to own tokyo tower, a big bungalow with swimming pool, (10)ten bags full of money or something even big.

......................................................... (After a lot of brain storming)

Ella- I have decided what I want to ask.

Max- I knew you were greedy from the start. Well, ask.

Ella - I want my house next to BTS[a South Korean band with (7) seven handsome boys]. (imagination running wild)

Max- What? What's BTS?

Ella - ( giving an exciting expression) OK I will show you.

She shows her phone to Max playing their videos.

(After watching (7) videos)

Ella- So grant my wish.

Max- First of all I can grant only minor wishes. Second, ask something that's possible and you will look absolutely strange next to those stunning boys.

Ella- What do you mean by that. Why I would look strange?

Max- Oh for that you must spend some time looking after yourself in the mirror.

(Ella makes an angry face)

Ella- You are completely useless. I want to throw you out right now.

Max- That will be violation of our contract.

Ella- You are not fulfilling my wish that is also violation of our contract.

Max- You must ask for something which is possible.

.............................................................. What should I ask for? Umm, something which is possible . how about my homework? Yes, I should ask for that.

Ella - How about doing my homework. Yes I want my homework done.

Max- That's against my morals.

Ella - Hey what are talking about. You can't even fulfill this request. You are completely useless.

Max- You must do your homework yourself. Listen, this time ask something reasonable.

Is this toothbrush kidding me. What else could I ask for?

(After thinking hard)

Ah! I should ask for pizza.

Ella - I want pizza. I guess this is a very simple wish.

Max- Yes, this could be processed.

Ella - OK Bro, do it then. Give me a pizza.

Max- OK wait here. It will take some time.

Ella-Ok I can wait for pizza.

After this I can see that Max is making efforts in moving his body with this (2) two tiny feet. But where is he going?

..............................................................

He has left the room. What is he doing? How much time would it take to bring me a pizza. Is there some secret magic that he is trying to hide?Can't wait for pizza.

.........................................................

( After 5 minutes)

Max came back and told me to wait. It's been (20) twenty minutes since then. How long do I have to wait.

(Suddenly the bell rung)

Max- Look your pizza arrived.

Ella - (with tears of happiness) Thank you so much. The moment I met you I knew that you were an awesome person, ah.... I mean object. I must go to get my pizza.

.........................................................

I opened the door and took the pizza. Then delivery man said something that pierced my heart. It was so painful.

Delivery man- Your bill is $7.25

Ella- What?? Ah.....

I was completely shocked for a second.

..........................................................

(After receiving the pizza)

(in Ella's room)

Ella- You didn't fulfill my request. I paid for this pizza.

Max- I went and ordered the pizza. In short I granted your one (1) minor wish.

Ella - How can you say that.... When I was the one to pay for it. Do you know how difficult it is for me save my pocket money. Why didn't you use some magic.

Max- Are you a complete idiot..... There's nothing like magic in this world.

Ella-How can you say that with your straight face when your existence is itself a magic.

No matter how I look at it. I have been tricked.
