THE RISK

It was an unpredictable mistake. But maybe it would kill me. I used to go on trips in my school holidays with my family. One day we had spent our time at AL-RYAM Park by walking around the park, having a barbecue and playing some different games. While I was eating my sister said to me “let’s go and play on the amusement park rides it was more interesting.  I liked her idea so I went with her. I was delighted because I was playing more than three rides and I was very fond of them. Afterwards, my sister suggested to me another ride which we call the scissor game, it is dangerous. It is so tall also, it rotates you for ten minutes and during that time it stops twice for about four minutes in the top and at that moment you are upside down.

Enthusiastically I said “let’s go “and it was the first time for me to attempt the risk. We sat in and the game assistant walked around us to check if everyone has fastened his seatbelt. I had been frightened after I saw two girls who played this ride were unconscious.  When it started it swings you and I thought that nothing made me feeling scared, but after a few minutes it started rotating speedily and everyone shouted and some girls lost their scarfs. On that time I felt I would faint.

Suddenly it stopped on the top and in that time the boy who sat in front of me shouted “stop the ride I will fall in.” He said to the game assistant but he could not hear him, one minute later I saw this boy hanging and screamed .Fortunately they stopped the game and helped him. The funny thing was all the remainder players said that we want to complete our ride. Unluckily it was a bad decision which threated my life because when the game stopped in the top for the second time my seatbelt became unfastened and my handles loosened, then I shouted to my sister “ I will die. My seatbelt is unbuckled”. She said “Hold and pull your handles to your body”. At that moment I was quite frightened because I thought that I would be like the boy and fall down.

 Finally when the game finished I had mixed feelings. I was relieved because the game was over and I was fine, However I was scared stiff when I remembered that I might passed on.

     Generally, most children don’t know how dangerous what they are doing and I am unexceptionally. When I was a child, I also did some risk things like climbing up telegraph pole, sitting in a papery box and slide down from the top of a snow mountain, and climbing up a ten meter tree. When I fetch up the risky things I have done I would like to ask myself how I lived to the present. Fortunately, nothing happened and I was happy to do these things until one time I wasn’t so lucky.

     When I was young, my family was not rich, so I lived in a small town. There were a lot of mountains which are covered by forest around my town. My friends really love to have explorations in the mountains but I never did that because I was afraid of the snakes and the dark. One day, one of my friends asked me to climb the mountain with him. To be honest, I didn’t want to go with him, but he thought I was afraid to go. Finally, I decided to go with him and I followed him carefully. I was careful about everything under my feet. Long time later, I didn’t feel it’s dangerous so I felt relax. Then I stood on a small stone when I was talking with my friend and then I slid down a deep chasm and twisted my ankle.

     At first I couldn’t believe what had happened and I tried to climb out, but every time I claimed up half then slipped back to the bottom. Finally, I gave up and told my friend to ask for help. I was waiting for my friend to come back for a long time. The sky was getting dark, so I felt scared and cried. I just didn’t know why my friend was getting help so slowly. At that time, I felt every second was like a year. When I was crying, I heard someone shout my name. I answered and I got help. Later when I was walking on the way home, I found my friend playing with others. I saved because my mom asked about me everywhere and others helped my mom find me.

     After that, the experience was becoming my nightmare, as during the experience I was abandoned by one of my friends.

The Lost City

This is a story about someone who never been feeling scared about something. He is an adventure travel guide who was working at one of the most recognised adventure agencies of South America called Insane Trekking. The name of this guide is Leon which means lion in Spanish. 

Some years ago, he started on one of the best rain forest treks with a group of eleventh experienced hikers, who had done some of the more dangerous treks.  They came from all around the world and they had been dreaming about this adventure since the first moment when this group of adventurers did their first travel abroad.  The name of that trek is the Lost City it is a renowned destination which is a nine days walking adventure. On the end of this trail there is an indigenous stone city called Teyuna where very few people have gone.

The group had made a pact to get together in a luxury resort in Santa Marta as was as planned, all of the members arrived on time, even Leon. That night Leon was explaining all about their adventure “This is one of the most challenging trails please be careful about the snakes and remember that this trail has a lot of precipice. I know that you are an experienced group but I don’t want to see broken bones this week” Leon said trusting in his abilities at the same time when the group was laughing. At the end of the meting Leon reminded them “If you were carefully, we will return safe, and we will be drinking a beer in the pool of this hotel”. Then all the group had gone to sleep placidly.

On the next days, they were enjoying their adventure. They had been walking during nine days, they had visited the lost city and as was planned they had returned to the hotel. Everyone also Leon was amazed because it had been one of the most amazing trails.

Once   the group arrived at the hotel as Leon promised, they had had time to rest inside the pool. Leon drank many beers and after 2 hours he had got a little drunk, then when he was returning to his room he slipped and fell in front of the group. That was a frightening moment when they realised that Leon’s arm was broken.   

The Moral of the story is a pool plus some beers could be more dangerous that anything.

 It is an amazing story, but it also involves a risk for one girl, Katherine, who went to a public high school. The school mates always made fun of her, because she was quiet and weird compared to other people, but she was not alone. Katherine was living in London with her mother. Katherine and her mother are got along together with and always stay with each other. The mother raised one daughter by herself, because her husband had already died a long time ago, so of course Katherine did not know about her father. She just knew his face, because she had found a family photo when she was a baby.

 One day, she went to school and was taking a class as usual. However suddenly her phone was ringing during the class time, and her mother said “please come back home soon!” She thought it must be a problem of great urgency, so she cut the class and run to her house. When she arrived at her house, there were her mother and grandparents there. Their faces were so serious, and then her mother said “Actually your father is president of our country, but we had not revealed the secret. However, your father suddenly changed his mind, and he want to reveal the secret.” Katherine was really devastated, because she had thought her father had already died before her mother revealed the secret to her. Mother said “If your father reveal the secret, you must move to another city a few month later and our life will have changed.” She really wondered about should she reveal the secret or not. The secret will makes a lot of risks for her and her family, because she really love mother, so she do not want to ruin her life.

 Finally, she is convinced of her mind. A few months later Katherine moved to another city with her family.
