United Indian School, Abbasiya, Kuwait

Well folks, this is by far the worst experience I ever had at the United Indian School. This was the first time in my life that I was running away from a 7 year old kid who just refused to stop vomiting. In fact, this sick kid was experiencing what can be termed projectile vomiting, ie., the vomit is projected up to 20 meters away, and is accompanied by loud moans and cries, and weird ritualistic mallu dancing.

The story goes back a few years when we were having our 10th standard commencement ceremony. With there being plenty of good food and drinks, my friends and I needed an emergency trip to the toilet. We walked out the classroom into the hallway and into the school building only to hear horrible creams and cries echoing across the walls! We were taken aback and stopped dead in our tracks. Who else could be in school at this time? It was 6:00 pm Wednesday evening.

“Is anyone there?” asked my friend.

Suddenly, a dumbstruck, nervous-looking kid with his pants down, tongue out and vomit-stained shirt appeared at the toilet door down the hallway. We all hurried to the kid’s aid, however, upon seeing us getting closer, the kid – while 20 meters away – forcefully vomited yellow fowl-smelling sputum directly in our faces and on our commencement suits!! Furthermore, the kid got all emotional and was whining and screaming “appa!! appa!!” in Malayalam. All the while, he kept a continuous stream of vomit trajectory aimed at us and the smell was horrible! We tried to calm him down but in vain, so, unable to handle this kid, my friends and I decided to leave him alone and report it to our teachers who were accompanying us at our commencement ceremony.

Surprisingly, this kid started chasing us whilst still discharging and splattering vomit at us! We ran across the hallways at full speed, but the kid kept up with the high-speed chase with his red swollen tongue flapping and bouncing about spraying vomit across the walls. He chased us up the second floor, then the third floor, then back to the ground floor, and showed no signs of fatigue. This kid was probably demon possessed! After 20 minutes of continuous running within the school building, my friends and I became so desperate that we locked ourselves inside an empty classroom. However, the kid waited outside yelling and vomiting, peeing, grunting and scratching at the classroom door. There were loud screams and bangings and sounds of gagging and moaning echoed in the UIS hallways. This went on for 20 minutes when the kid tired himself out and went away.

When things got quiet, my friends and I cautiously walked out the classroom only to find out the great mess the kid had made down the hallway. Walls were tainted with vomit, windows were smashed, and there was vomit on the ceiling! We falteringly walked into a toilet and cleaned our suites to the best of our abilities, and quietly rejoined our commencement ceremony.

The next day, school authorities blamed us 10th std students for vandalism because we were the only ones present in school at that time. We tried to explain to Susan Roy about a demented howling kid who vomited all over the school floors and ceilings, and smashed windows, but she wouldn’t just believe that idea!!

You think I'm angry???!!!! You have no idea.....
