CHAPTER- 1 THE STARS OF NECROPOLISH Begins-


Narrator : Nighttime with a beautiful moon, Mr. Gulgitus is driving his car and returning home.

(Inside the car)

Radio : Hello, good evening, everyone! Welcome to my show. I am your host, David. Today we are going to listen to some cool songs by our legendary singer and songwriter, Caleb Brown's super hit songs. So let's get started.

Mr. Gulgitus : Really! Caleb Brown is such a great singer. I love his voice.

Narrator : While listening and driving, Mr. Gulgitus's car finally entered the parking lot, which is a kilometer away from his house. After parking the car,

Mr. Gulgitus : Ok, finally done. Now it's only a kilometer walk to reach my home.

Narrator : Mr. Gulgitus walks on the footpath, enjoying the night view.

Mr. Gulgitus : Ahh! Really so good. Everyone walking on the footpath, road full of cars, and a man sitting on a bench. Really, so good.

Narrator : While walking and enjoying the beautiful night scene, finally, Mr. Gulgitus reached his home.

Mr. Gulgitus : Finally, I've done it. Really tired now. Let's take a shower, then I'll watch some news on TV.

Narrator : After taking a shower, Mr. Gulgitus started watching the news.

News Host : Welcome, welcome, welcome to our show, "The Debate." So today's guests on our show are Professor Sharefold, our second guest Mr. Andrew Justice, our third guest Mr. Mark Gross, and today's last but not least, Dr. Shawn Glance.

Mr. Gulgitus : Oh, it's not right. Everyone is male. I am not interested, so carry on guys.

News Host : Oh, we just got the news. Dr. Shawn Glance will not be able to attend our show. So today's last, but not least, our new and final guest of this debate is Miss Lily. Thank you, Miss Lily, for coming on short notice.

Mr. Gulgitus : Hey! Carry me as well, guys! Really, she is so cute. Should I take her on a date? Really, she is so beautiful.

Narrator : With excitement, Mr. Gulgitus started kissing the pillow. After watching the live debate and watching the re-telecast debate of the day, finally, Mr. Gulgitus was ready to go to sleep.

Mr. Gulgitus : Ok, now time to sleep. Goodnight, Lily. See you tomorrow.

Narrator : The next morning, Mr. Gulgitus was really serious. He was busy watching a dream, trying to date a girl. He thought to ask her if she is interested. But unfortunately, he was confused. He thought the one with long hair whom he was asking might be a girl, but he was a man. The man got angry and started beating him. After two or three punches, finally, Mr. Gulgitus found himself lying on the floor, maybe he might have fallen down from the bed.

Mr. Gulgitus : Ouch! It hurts so bad. But thank you, God, you saved me. Otherwise, that stupid man might have killed me. Thank you very much. Really, what a tough day and night it was.

(Suddenly, Mr. Gulgitus's phone rang. It was his friend, Glaze.)

Glaze : Hey bro, how are you?

Mr. Gulgitus : Ahh, ouch! It's hurting.

Glaze : Hey, what are you doing?

Mr. Gulgitus : Hey, don't think anything wrong. I fell down from the bed!

Gaze : Ok, no need to tell. Maybe you dreamed about a girl, and then maybe someone smashed you, am I right?

Mr. Gulgitus (angrily): Ok, bye, stupid fellow. No use of mine.

Gaze : He is a really crazy guy.

Narrator : Mr. Gulgitus rushed towards the bathroom, then he brushed his teeth, had breakfast, and finally, he was ready to go to the office. He went out to pick up his car, which was a kilometer away from his house.

Mr. Gulgitus : Again, I have to walk for a kilometer, then I will take my car, and then boom!

Narrator : Mr. Gulgitus was walking and enjoying the beautiful morning scene.

Mr. Gulgitus : Wow, so nice, happy morning! The footpath is full of people, the road is packed with cars, people sitting on the bench. It's called the happy life. And now I have reached my car. Let's drive to the office.

Narrator : After driving to the office and working, suddenly, the phone rang for Mr. Gulgitus.

Caller : Hello, who is there?

Mr gulgitus : it's me gulgitus

Caller : oh ok nice, How are you?

Mr. Gulgitus : I am fine. How about you?

Caller : Ok, so see you then. Bye.

Mr. Gulgitus : Hey, wait! How will I identify you there? Give me some clue.

Caller : I will wear a dress and today I will make up my face with pink.

Narrator : The caller's phone suddenly got disconnected.

Mr. Gulgitus : What's the identity? Everyone wears a dress and how does a pink makeup look like? Hello! Oh God, maybe her phone is disconnected.Now, how will I identify her?

Narrator : Suddenly, a message arrived on his phone.

Mr. Gulgitus : Ok, she messaged me. Cool.

Narrator : The phone rang again, this time it was his friend Anderson.

Anderson : Hey mate, where are you?

Mr. Gulgitus : I am at the office, working. How about you my love?

Anderson : Come on now stop that, we used to do that when we were kids now it's feels so bad!

Mr. Gulgitus : Wow really! I thought you will be happy when I will adress you as my love.

Anderson : Earlier when we were kids not now, stop it just I said.

Mr. Gulgitus : Well for me you still my love!

Anderson : Ok as you wish

Mr.Gulgitus : Thank you my love.

Anderson: Ok now tell me when will you be back home?

Mr. Gulgitus: I am busy today, so maybe I will be late.

Anderson: Wow, great!

Mr. Gulgitus: What's so great about that?

Anderson: I mean, so sad!

Mr. Gulgitus: That's better.

Anderson: I need your help. Can you please give me your house key?

Mr. Gulgitus: Why?

Anderson: Actually, my house is full of guests, and now I have no room available for my sister. So, if you can help me by letting her stay in your house for some days, that would be a great help from you.

Mr. Gulgitus: I'm sorry, I can't do that.

Anderson: She wants to meet you, as she likes you. She is not married, too, and really beautiful. Now, what is your decision?

Mr. Gulgitus: Why not? Please come, Your sister my wife.

Amderson : What!??

Mr. Gulgitus : I mean life!

Anderson : What the heck!!

Mr. Gulgitus : I mean my sister.

Anderson : That's better.

Mr. Gulgitus : Thanks god I thought my dream is going to be true.

Anderson: So nice of you. Can you please tell me where and when to pick up your house keys?

Mr. Gulgitus: First you have to reach my house than Just open my message booth and grab it.

Anderson: Oh, so sweet of you. Thank you. Bye.

Mr. Gulgitus: Okay, bye.

Narrator: After finding the keys, they both entered the house. Then they both rushed towards the bedroom, locked the door from inside, turned off the lights, and even cut off the doorbell connection so that no one could disturb them.

Girl: Anderson?

Anderson: Yes, my love?

Girl: If we get caught while doing this stuff, then what will your friend's reaction be?

Anderson: Don't worry, love. He told me that he might be late today, so he will not be able to catch us.

After completing the work, Mr. Gulgitus was ready for flying with the girl.

Mr. Gulgitus: Oh, cool! I have completed my work before the given time. Now let's leave the office and reach the venue before the time, as the wise man says, the first impression is the last impression.

Narrator: Mr. Gulgitus drove the car to the venue.

Inside the restaurant while sitting in a chair:

Mr. Gulgitus: Where is she? Oh, I can't wait to meet her. Come fast! Come fast! Come fast!

Waiter: Yes, sir?

Mr. Gulgitus: Yes?

Waiter: How may I help you?

Mr. Gulgitus: Oh, well, I think you might not be of use to me, better luck next time.

Waiter: Sorry, sir, you can't do that.

Mr. Gulgitus: What do you mean by that? What can't I do here?

Waiter: Don't try to be so innocent. I know how you are. I have handled many crazy people like you.

Mr. Gulgitus: Hey, how can you say that? What do you think, am I crazy?

Waiter: Is there anything left to explain?

Mr. Gulgitus: Hey, how dare you!

(Suddenly, the phone rings)

Caller: Hello, am I talking to Mr. Gulgitus?

Mr. Gulgitus: Yes, hello, I am.

Caller: Oh, great. So sorry, I was not able to join you in the hotel, as I am busy. Can we talk somewhere else?

Mr. Gulgitus: Yeah, sure. I am ready. Tell me where.

Caller: Okay, sweet. Can we talk in your house, if you don't mind?

Mr. Gulgitus: Oh, sure, we can do that at my home. No problem.

Caller: Okay, so see you there. Okay, bye.

Mr. Gulgitus: Okay, sure. I am waiting for you. Bye.

Waiter: Now, anything need to explain?

Mr. Gulgitus: (confused) Shut up!

Narrator: While driving the car, Mr. Gulgitus suddenly remembered about someone and rushed towards his house.

Mr. Gulgitus: Oh, I forgot about them.

(After parking the car and walking through the footpath, finally, Mr. Gulgitus reached home.)

Narrator: Mr. Gulgitus rang the bell, but no one opened the door. Finally, Mr. Gulgitus used his spare keys to open the door. Then he started to look for Anderson's sister and suddenly found both lying on the bed. Mr. Gulgitus screamed!!

Mr. Gulgitus: Ahhhh!!!!!!!

Anderson: (suddenly falling down from bed) Ouch! Why are you screaming? Can't you see we are sleeping? Go and come back here after an hour.

Mr. Gulgitus: Oh my, my. Look who's saying that to me. Go and look outside. It's my house, not yours, and why are you both sleeping?

Anderson: Please, listen, buddy.

Mr. Gulgitus: Hey, leave my house now. I can't tolerate you both now.

Anderson: Hey, calm down. Now, don't forget, I am your friend.

Mr. Gulgitus: I don't care who you are. Just leave my house.

Anderson: I will not.

Mr. Gulgitus: I will push you out.

Narrator: Mr. Gulgitus held Anderson's hand and tried to drag him. Suddenly, their conversation changed into a fight. They both were smashing each other, rolling down the floor, clothes torn.

(Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. The girl opened the door, a beautiful girl with a gift in her hands standing next to the enterence door. Two girls' conversation.)

Caller: Hello, I am Rosa.

Girl: I am Sandra.

Rosa: Such a nice name.

Sandra: Thanks, your name is so nice.

Rosa: Thank you.

Sandra: You're welcome.

Rosa: You are so sweet, girl.

Sandra: You are a kind person too.

Rosa: Do you want to be my friend?

Sandra: Okay.

Rosa: Great.

(Anderson and Mr. Gulgitus still fighting.)

Rosa: Okay, come with me, friend. Let's sit somewhere and chat.

Sandra: Sure, why not?

Narrator: They both were secretly talking in a room.

Sandra: Okay, maybe this place will be nice.

Rosa: Yes, it is nice. I'm so happy that I have found someone whom I can talk to.

Sandra: Oh, really? I'm happy to hear that.

Rosa: What do you do for a living?

Sandra: Nothing, just living with my boyfriend who takes care of me.

Rosa: Oh, that's good. I am doing a job.

Sandra: Oh, nice.

Rosa: Okay, give me your phone number so that we both can talk whenever we want.

Sandra: Yeah, sure. It is 124733****.

Rosa: Okay, cool. Tell me something about yourself, Sandra.

Narrator: Mr. Gulgitus and Anderson still fighting while the two girls were talking to each other. Suddenly, Mr. Gulgitus remembered about the date.

Mr. Gulgitus: Oh, I forgot that today is my date with a girl. Where is she?

Anderson: I don't know, maybe she forgot.

Mr. Gulgitus: Oh, maybe bad luck for me.

Anderson: Oh, don't worry, it happens sometimes.

Narrator: Suddenly, the door opened, and the girl was not there. He stood up and went out of the room.He heard voices of girls. Anderson followed him too. They both reached the door of the room where two girls were talking. Both Anderson and Mr. Gulgitus were shocked.

Mr. Gulgitus (in a slow voice): What's that?

Anderson: They're talking with each other.

Mr. Gulgitus: When did this happen?

Anderson: Maybe when we were fighting at that time.

Narrator: Suddenly, Sandra saw them standing and talking with each other from outside the room.

Sandra: Hey, hello Anderson.

Anderson (confused): Hi, love.

Rosa: Who are they, Sandra? Do you know them? And why do they look so tired?

Sandra: One is my boyfriend, his name is Anderson, and the second one is his friend, whose name is Mr. Gulgitus.

Rosa (shocked): What?!

Mr. Gulgitus: Hello, Rosa.

Rosa: Hi! What happened to you both? Why do you both look like this?

Mr. Gulgitus ( stammered) : Actually, we were... playing!

Anderson: Yes, we sometimes used to do that.

Rosa: Oh, you both were playing! What were you both playing?

Mr. Gulgitus: Actually, we were playing a game. Hey, Anderson, why aren't you saying anything? Tell her what we were playing, my love.

Rosa: Your love!!

Anderson (In a way of defending himself) : He likes to call everyone " my love"

Rosa : And why so?

Anderson : Maybe he imagine his love in everyone.

Mr. Gulgitus: No, I don't like boys, I like girls.

Rosa: Oh, you like girls.

Mr. Gulgitus: No, I mean I respect them.

Rosa: You respect people in this way?

Mr. Gulgitus: No, as I told you earlier, we were just playing, that's all.

Rosa: Now, don't lie, Mr,about 28% of the population is homosexual in this country. Maybe you both are in that category as well, but no problem, it's normal.

Mr. Gulgitus: No, we are not.

Anderson ( starts acting) : Ok, Gulgitus, now I think we have to reveal our secret.

Mr. Gulgitus:( in confused way)- Ok, so the secret is that he is my friend, and he lives with this girl named Sandra, and they both are here like temporary guests, at first I saw them lying on bed.

Anderson (in a slow voice): No! Don't say that, she will be sure then.

Rosa: Oh, then Sandra will not stay with you. As I don't know about you both, you are characterless people.

Anderson: Hey, you can't! She is my girlfriend, my bride!

(Rosa and Mr. Gulgitus in surprise): Bride?!

Anderson: Bright! She is a bright girl, and she is my girlfriend. I can't live a day without her.

Rosa: No, she will not. Sandra, let's go to my home.

Anderson : No please!

Rosa: Carry on, you both!

Mr. Gulgitus: Hey, we are not gay.

Anderson: Yes.

Mr. Gulgitus: We were just playing.

Anderson: Yes.

Mr. Gulgitus : Can't two friends play?

Anderson: Yes?

Mr. Gulgitus: And I don't know about Anderson, but I am a pure person.

Anderson: Obviously.

Mr. Gulgitus: Look, see, he agreed with my words.

Anderson: Hey! What do you mean by that? I am the purest soul on this planet, much better than him.

Mr. Gulgitus: Well, God knows.

Anderson: Hey, I am a pure guy, please don't do that. I am sorry from Gulgitus's side. Now I will advise him to leave all this stuff and be a nice guy.

Mr. Gulgitus: I am already a nice guy.

Anderson : oh really.

Mr. Gulgitus: Sandra, don't go. I love you from the bottom of my heart.

Anderson: What!

Mr. Gulgitus: What?

Anderson: Hey bro, Where is your bottom? I want to crush it.

Mr. Gulgitus: I said that by mistake.

Anderson: Ok, continue.

Mr gulgitus : It's too late now they both left I think.

Anderson: They both left the home, now we are only here, now what will I do? How will I talk with my Sandra?

Mr. Gulgitus: Call her and talk with her as much as you want.

Anderson: Oh, I forgot that. Thank you, Gulgitus.

Mr. Gulgitus: I am going to sleep. Bye, good night.

Anderson: What's so good about this night?

Narrator: The next morning, Anderson was busy talking with Sandra on the phone, and Mr. Gulgitus was preparing breakfast.

Anderson: Hey, Gulgitus!

Mr. Gulgitus: Yes?

Anderson: Can you send some money to my account through online?

Mr. Gulgitus: Why?

Anderson: Sandra is asking me to give her some money as she wants to go shopping.

Mr. Gulgitus: Do you think I have opened a bank, and whenever you ask me for money, I will give it to you?

Anderson: Why are you so angry? Please pay for it now, and I will return it to you soon.

Mr. Gulgitus: Do I have any choice left?

Anderson: I guess no.

Mr. Gulgitus: Ok, wait a minute.

(Notification sound)

Anderson: Oh, ok. Thank you, friend.

Mr. Gulgitus: Ok.

Narrator: Mr. Gulgitus was busy preparing breakfast again, He was trying to make something to eat but he was doing mistakes finally in a frustration he threw away the ingredients)

Mr. Gulgitus: Here's your breakfast.

Anderson: What do you mean by breakfast? Look, it's just fruits!

Mr. Gulgitus: Yes, I know that.

Anderson: Hey, friend, be modern. Try to update yourself.

Mr. Gulgitus: Look who's telling me that. One who is jobless is telling me to be modern. Wow.

Mr.Gulgitus : Ok, now I am going to the office.

Anderson (sadly): Why are you so angry with me? You've changed, Gulgitus. Earlier, you were so kind, and now you're so rude to me.

Mr. Gulgitus: Are you really not gay? You're talking like my wife or crush. And how am I rude? Can you please explain it to me?

Anderson: You don't care about me and leave me alone in this big house.

Mr. Gulgitus was surprised, "Wow, a house less than 800 square feet is considered big? I must be crazy. Okay, I'm leaving, I can't tolerate this anymore."

Anderson chimed in, "Hey, listen, I like chocolate cake!"

Mr. Gulgitus replied, "So what?"

Anderson retorted, "So buy one for me, okay?"

Mr. Gulgitus agreed, "Okay, just eat every time and do nothing. Stupid friend!"

As Mr. Gulgitus made his way through the footpath to the car parking lot, everything seemed unchanged - the path full of people, the road filled with cars, and people sitting on benches.

Finally reaching the office, Mr. Gulgitus drove his car towards the parking lot and began working. The office staff was busy talking on the phone.

Office Staff: "Okay, I'll have my lunch on time, okay? Bye, sweetie."

Mr. Gulgitus, surprised, greeted the office staff, "Hey, sir, how are you?"

Office Staff: "Not much good, actually."

Mr. Gulgitus inquired, "Why? What happened?"

Office Staff: "My wife always calls me to ask about my lunch."

Mr. Gulgitus nodded understandingly, "Oh, it's her caring towards you, sir."

Office Staff: "Yes, I think so. But really, whenever my phone rings in the evening, I always suspect it might be my wife."

Mr. Gulgitus responded, "Oh, really? Cool."

Office Staff: "Yes, if ever someone calls you while you're working, just think that your wife is calling you."

Mr. Gulgitus agreed, "Oh, okay, thanks for informing me."

Suddenly, Mr. Gulgitus's phone rang.

Mr. Gulgitus: "Hello?"

Jenifer: "Hello, Gulgs!"

Mr. Gulgitus, shocked, replied, "Hi! Sorry, I didn't remember you."

Jenifer: "Now stop kidding with me, Gulgs."

Mr. Gulgitus, puzzled, responded, "Ah! Okay."

Office Staff, curious, asked, "Who is on the phone?"

Mr. Gulgitus shrugged, "I don't know, someone, I think a girl, and she says she knows me."

Office Staff , "Oh, your wife?"

Mr. Gulgitus, "No, I'm married."

Office Staff, surprised, "When did you get married? You didn't tell me."

Mr. Gulgitus corrected himself, "I mean, I'm not married

Office Staff: "Okay then?"

Mr. Gulgitus pondered, "Maybe it's a wrong number. I should tell her."

Office Staff advised, "Don't do that. Ask her if she's not married and if she's interested in you, then you have a chance."

Mr. Gulgitus exclaimed, "Oh, Jesus, yes! Thank you, sir!"

Office Staff encouraged him, "Sure, talk to her."

Mr. Gulgitus, nervously, said into the phone, "Hey, sweetie, where are you?"

Jenifer replied, "I'm at home."

Mr. Gulgitus eagerly responded, "Sweet! I'm so excited to meet you. I want to see your cute face. I'm excited to listen to a song from your lovely voice."

Jennifer, confused, replied, "Ah! Sure, we will meet. We will be happy to meet you."

Mr. Gulgitus, taken aback, questioned, "We?"

Jennifer clarified, "Yes, me and my husband."

Mr. Gulgitus, shocked, exclaimed, "Your husband?!"

Jennifer innocently replied, "Why are you shocked, uncle?"

Mr. Gulgitus, "I am not your uncle!"

Mr. Gulgitus quickly ended the call.

Office Staff, was looking tensed

Mr gulgitus : what happened sir?

Office Staff: "Nothing much, friend. I am trying to call my wife, but she's not accepting my call, busy talking with someone."

Mr. Gulgitus: "Oh, then call her again. I hope she will receive your call."

Office Staff: "Okay, sure. Just hold."

Narrator: The office staff calls his wife again, and this time, she accepts the call. After some talk, the office guy suddenly becomes angry and cuts the phone immediately.

Mr. Gulgitus: "What happened, sir?"

Office Staff: "Oh, nothing. My wife was talking with my uncle, whose name is Gulgs.

Mr. Gulgitus (in a scared way): "Oh, what did he do?"

Office Staff: "Earlier, I thought he was a gentleman, but now I am aware that he is an old crook. My wife told me that he was trying to flirt with her."

Mr. Gulgitus: "Oh, really strange."

Office Staff: "He also asked my wife to be his girlfriend."

Mr. Gulgitus: "No, I didn't say that!!!!"

Office Staff: "What???"

Mr. Gulgitus: "Ah, I mean he said that!! Holy crap!!"

Office Staff: "Yes, my wife also told me that he was trying to force her to go on a date with him."

Mr. Gulgitus: "Your wife is a liar!!"

Office Staff: "What???"

Mr. Gulgitus: "I mean, that old uncle is bad and a liar."

Office Staff: "Oh, okay. I will find out the number and address of that person who called my wife. If it's my uncle, then I will not leave him. And if it's someone else, then I will break his teeth, and then I will call the police!!"

Mr. Gulgitus (dreaming himself being beaten by the husband with a gang of bad people)

Mr. Gulgitus (suddenly with a scream) : "No!!!!!"

Office Staff: "What happened??"

Mr. Gulgitus: "Oh, that's a dream, okay."

Office Staff: "Dream?"

Mr. Gulgitus: "No, nothing."

Narrator: After that, Mr. Gulgitus starts working again. At nighttime, he leaves the office, drives his car, parks it in the parking lot, and walks a kilometer to reach home.

Mr. Gulgitus: "Really, it's looking so good at night with a crowd. Really cool."

Narrator: Suddenly, Mr. Gulgitus sees a man sitting on a bench. Someone in a mask gives him a box, but Mr. Gulgitus ignores them. Then a group of drinkers fighting with each other comes into view. Mr. Gulgitus thinks they are trying to fight with the man on the bench and the masked person. He decides to call the cops.

Mr. Gulgitus: "Hey, I need to report something suspicious happening in the park. There's a group of people fighting with each other near the bench, and there's someone wearing a mask giving something to another person. It looks really strange and potentially dangerous. Can you send someone to check it out?"

Police Head: "We'll send someone over right away to check it out. Thanks for reporting it, Mr. Gulgitus. Stay safe and stay on the line until our officer arrives."

Mr. Gulgitus: "Okay, thank you. Love you, ahh, I mean thank you."

Narrator: While watching those drunkards fighting with each other, suddenly a group of police cars appears. The cops come out from the car and get ready to arrest all. Mr. Gulgitus feels great, finally having done a single great job in his life.

Officer: "Who here is named Mr. Gulgitus?"

Mr. Gulgitus: "Hello, sir, I am Gulgitus. Nice to meet you, sir."

Officer: "Am I your uncle?"

Mr. Gulgitus: "No."

Offier- you not much beautiful too, to be wife.

Mr gulgitus (confused) - sir you also!!!

Officer- what??

Mr gulgitus- nothing sir.

Officer: "Okay, then. Thank you for informing us. Okay, bye.

Mr. Gulgitus: "Okay, bye.

As the cops left the scene, Mr. Gulgitus couldn't contain his relief. Walking along the footpath, his spirits lifted until he noticed the abandoned box lying unnoticed. Despite considering informing the police, he opted to take it home and report it in the morning. With the box in hand, Mr. Gulgitus made his way home, finally reaching his doorstep and ringing the bell.

Anderson opened the door, visibly surprised. "Wow, thank you for the gift, Gulgitus."

Confusion crossed Mr. Gulgitus's face. "It's not for you," he clarified.

"Ah, I see," Anderson responded, understanding.

"Why would I gift you? You aren't my girlfriend. Now, please excuse me," Mr. Gulgitus stated, moving past Anderson and into his home.

Once in his room, Mr. Gulgitus placed the box down. After showering and having dinner, he attempted to sleep, but his mind raced with curiosity about the box's contents. Eventually, he succumbed to the urge and decided to open it.

As the lid lifted, Mr. Gulgitus was left in shock, he screamed, Oh my goodness!!.
