My Heroic Deed
The New Year vacation
begins tomorrow in our school. My younger sister’s only dream is to go to my
grandmother’s house. Do you know why? We have enough space to play there. Every
evening, the children play elle there in the paddy field. Whenever we go there,
we also join them. Then, we feel as if we have gone to the heaven. The pond
behind the house is also very beautiful. There are colorful flowers in it. The
water we find there is really blue. I feel like jumping into it and have a
bath.
That is why we went
to grandmother’s house to enjoy its beauty. But, this year the environment has
completely changed due to the recent heavy rain. The pond and the paddy
field are full of water. The children, who usually play there, are not there
now. Earlier, I got into the pond and enjoyed swimming there plucking lily
flowers. I also caught small fish. I went deeper into the water and built dream
castles there. But, today I have lost all.
Grandmother said, “Baba,
don’t go to the pond.” It is dangerous these days. When I asked father, he too
said, “Sorry, I can’t.” Mother said, “Please baba, don’t go there.” All these
words hurt me. Why did we come here?
In the meantime,
grand mother went to aunt’ house and both my father and mother were having a nap.
So, my sister and I secretly stepped down to our favourite pond. It was really
a lovely place, which is full of water.
My sister saw this
beautiful pond and told me, “Sister, I will have a bath till all this water is
over.” She was unable to bear the happiness and at once jumped into the water.
What to do now? I looked at every side, but there was none to help us. I cried
louder and louder. That voice echoed and returned to me. I could not leave my
sister and go to fetch some body. She was also shouting saying sister and
sister. Gradually, she was floating to the deep side of the pond. She was
drowned and I could see her head only.
At once I jumped into
the pond and swam towards my sister’s direction and caught her by hair. After
that, I swam towards the land dragging her. Anyway, I rescued my sister. Even
today, I feel that terror. My whole body becomes cold when I remember that
terrible incident. I could not have told this fearful incident to you if I was
not such a heroic person that day.
Why do I like my friend?
We are all friends. We
all have friends. We can’t do anything without friends. We need friends for
playing, learning, working in the class, and for completions. We can’t do
anything without friends.
Of them, you know that
we have a best friend. He is known as our intimidate friend. Now can you tell
me why I like my best friend so much?
One day, we were
running to the classroom after playing. Suddenly, I fell down. All the other
friends ran to the classroom leaving me there. But, my best friend didn’t do
so. She stopped and helped me.
When I am ill, she is
always with me near the teacher. She remembers my birth day and wishes me before
the other friends. On the New Year day also, she is the first person to wish
me.
She is like my mother.
When I do something wrong, she advises me. I can’t stay without speaking to
her. She is also a very clever girl at her studies. When she is not with me, I
feel as if my mother is not with me.
How beautiful is our
world if we have such friends?
