Almost about twenty days had gone. It was the morning time and finally Jacob reached at Emerald City. From there he had to take a bus to his final destination as per his calculations.
He waited for the bus to arrive. After a while some of the buses came. Jacob didn’t know which bus would take him to the place where he wanted to go. Therefore, he asked one by one from all the drivers of buses that where the buses would go. But no one knows about the place which Jacob was talking about.
Once he started thinking that maybe this is not a true story, or it is just a imaginary. While he was just thinking all this, something suddenly came to his mind that perhaps story can be imaginary but map not. Jacob quickly draw out map from his bag and show the map to one of a bus driver and said, ” I want to go in this direction, can u tell me how can I reach there ?”
Hence after observing the map driver said,”Yes,There is a village name Lilliput mentioned on the map in the direction where you want to go..”
Jacob was happy after hearing this and thought that now he will complete his journey very soon.
Then Jacob asked,” Which bus will go there?.. ”
Driver pointed his finger toward a bus and said,”That bus will take you to this place.”
Jacob went to that bus and said to the conductor,” Please drop me at Lilliput.”
Jacob sat in the bus. After a while the bus departed from the place.
It was evening when the bus reached at the village named Lilliput. Jacob was very tired from this long journey and also needed a place to pass the night. There was a little shop, Jacob went there and asked the shopkeeper ,”Will there be a place to spend the night?” Shopkeeper said,”this is a small village , there are neither hotels nor any inn.”
He went from there and sat down under a tree. Jacob also got very hungry and he didn’t understand how he could spend his night there.
Suddenly, he heard a voice of a girl asking for help. As Jacob was looking her and he was totally zoned out. He was just looking at her.The girl was so beautiful having long hairs and fishy eyes.
Suddenly he again heard her voice and he thought where he got lost. ” I should help her.” said Jacob to himself.
Jacob went to the girl. And said,” What happened, Can I help you.?”
Girl first hesitated to talk to Jacob but when Jacob insisted her then she said,”Yes please can you assist me to finding any doctor. Actually the doctor who I know, is not here right now. I need a doctor urgent.”
“I will help you. We will find the doctor together for sure.” said Jacob by giving her some courage.
“Really.. please lets go fast..”
“Why the way who needs help.?” asked Jacob.
“My father, his condition is very critical. He was not able to breath properly. And suddenly he fainted.” girl explained whole condition.
“Okay I think first we should go to your home and see what is the condition of your father.” said Jacob.
Girl thinking for a while, nod her head and said,”Okay lets go.”
Both of them went to her home. Jacob saw that the girl’s father was lying on the bedstead. Jacob checked his father. And said, ” you wait here, I’ll go and find the doctor.”
“No, I’ll come with you.”
“I think you stay here if someone needs help at least you will be here.”
“Okay please come back fast.” requested girl.
“I’ll try..”
Jacob went outside in search of doctor. He asked some of the people but all of them told that doctor was very far from there. Then he asked about the direction where he should go so that he find the doctor. One of them told him some of the directions.
He stopped and thought if he went to doctor and called him and then doctor came, it will take double time.
Jacob decided that he should take the girl’s father with him so that there will no waste of time.
He returned to her house and suddenly he remembered that he had also some medicine that his room owner gave to him in order to his safety.
Jacob hurriedly reached her house and said,” I have some medicine, perhaps it will help your father. ”
“How do you know it will safe to give that medicine.” asked girl.
“I got these medicines from city, it will help your father for sometime. We should give these medicines to him until we reached to the doctor”
“Alright.. ”
Jacob know about all the medicines as his room owner told him which medicine should take in which condition.
Jacob gave one of the pill to the girl and she gave it to her father. They waited for sometime so that girl’s father came into conscious state. But nothing happened nor his father opened his eyes.
Girl later thought that she didn’t know Jacob that who is he and from where he came and asked ” Are you really helping us or something else.” girl suspected.
“What are you saying.? I am just helping you nothing else.” said Jacob.
“How can I trust you?”
“Trust… .” said Jacob.
” I don’t understand how to trust you and I even don’t know you. I supposed you are helping us but nothing happen like that and don’t know you give really a medicine or something else.” said that girl.
“Alright.. if you don’t believe me I will go from here..” said Jacob dejectedly.
Jacob left the place. The girl decided to call some another doctor. She took her bag. She just step out from the door and heard the sound of coughing. She turned and saw that her father had come to his senses. She went to him with eyes full of tears and said,” Thank god you opened your eyes. We all were very afraid.”
Suddenly she realized what she had done with Jacob. ” oh no I said very bad to that guy. He was seriously helping us. I misunderstood him. I should sorry him what I have done. He must not have gone too far. I should go and search him.” said the girl by realizing her mistake.
” you all take care of father. I’ll be right back.” said girl to her siblings.
