WITH a big giant bull madly chasing me in those wide open fields, I couldn’t think of anything except of roasting under the sun,
“Sarah! Anna! Jane! Help me! Somebody please help me! Help!” I screamed at the top of my lungs as I ran for my life!
With a big giant bull madly chasing me in those wide open fields, I couldn’t think of anything except of roasting under the sun, hanging on the bull’s horns.
‘Who asked you to take photo of that bull!’ I thought to myself. I recalled the most regretful moment of my life; the moment when my wish for capturing the countryside life in one click turned into a recipe for disaster! I was the one who stood right in front of the death angel and acted smart with it.
I wish I had never asked Jane to take me to see the countryside! I wish I hadn’t insisted so much to see the other ‘way’ of living!
‘Why do I always have to be the adventurous one and end up getting into serious trouble! What do I do now?’ I kept talking to myself as I ran for my life. I tried to come up with a way out of this sticky situation but I couldn’t! My mind had stopped working!
‘Oh God! Please help get me out of this! ’
“Hey listen! You ladies!” I shouted at the women working on the nearby fields, “Please get this monster away from me! ”
None of them came to my rescue. Nobody even looked at me!
“Excuse me! Ladies!” I shouted out again but nobody seemed to hear me!
Furious and exhausted, I went on running and running. I couldn’t breathe anymore. My mouth went dry. My head burnt. I was slowing down a bit, but the idea of getting trampled by the bull gave me another adrenaline rush.
As I ran there in the fields, I frantically tried getting the attention of the passers-by but no one seemed to hear me or even see me! Had someone cast a spell on them or maybe I had become invisible. But what about the bull? How could anybody possibly not see the bull chasing me like crazy! I couldn’t understand even a bit of what was going around.
To my horror, I couldn’t run anymore! It felt like I was stuck! I tried harder but I simply couldn’t move; even a bit! I frantically screamed; screamed for help but I realised I had lost my voice too. I turned around and saw the bull coming closer and closer!
‘Oh my God! It’s going to trample me! I am going to die! It’s coming! It’s coming!’
NOOOOOOOO!” I embraced myself and …
“Thump!”
I looked around. I was lying on the floor! As I looked around I realised it was my room! I had fallen off my bed. I was dreaming!
It was just a dream. I heaved a huge sigh of relief but instantly my happiness subsided as my gaze fell upon the clock on my bedside table — 7:00 am Sunday!
‘The day of our trip!’ I grimaced. The thought of the nightmare turning into a reality made me really sick!
