I was in the staff-room when my colleague in the afternoon session rushed in, asking to see another teacher who was the uncle of one of her students. She said the student was behaving very strangely, claiming that he could see a bearded old man in a samfu standing outside the class and beckoning to him.
The uncle quickly rushed to the class and he took the boy home straight away. He called the parents at work and they rushed home too but found there was nothing they could do; the boy kept insisting he could see this old man right in front of him, beckoning him to follow.
The uncle kept me and my colleagues informed about the progress of the case. He told us the parents took the boy to several bomohs and other medicine men but they could do nothing to help him. He refused to eat properly and was feeling pains all over.
Finally, out of pity, I asked the uncle to bring the boy to my house to see my husband, who might know someone who could help him, although we didn’t like to get involved in these kinds of things.
When the boy came, he was such a sight that I really feel pity for him. He was thin and haggard-looking, not at all the cheerful fellow that I remembered. My husband treated him very gently and asked him to take a seat. The boy refused, he was scared and said it was very painful for him to sit. My husband found this hard to believe and insisted that the boy should sit down, saying nothing would happen to him.
Looking very scared, the boy looked nervously at the sofa and slowly bent to sit. As soon as his bottom touched the chair, he yelled and shot up. He was clearly in severe pain. My husband felt so bad that he undertook to take the boy to this person he had heard about through his friends.
It was fortunate that this time there was someone who could indeed help the boy. He listened quietly to what the boy had to say and then announced that he knew what the problem was. He told us that the father had taken the boy to a shopping centre and had left him alone for a minute. At that time, a man had approached the boy and asked him to pick a four-digit number. Being scared and not knowing what else to do, the boy had obliged. The number had struck first prize, said the medicine man, and now the spirit that had helped that mysterious man strike the number had come to claim the boy.
Could the boy be helped? Thankfully, yes. The medicine man said prayers and made offerings to the spirit and managed to appease it. My husband tells me that when the medicine man said he had got rid of the spirit, the first thing that happened was the boy fell into a deep and peaceful sleep.
“Don’t wake him,” the medicine man said, “he’s catching up for all those lost nights.”
