‘Get up Leo!’ My mom would snap. ‘Don’t you know that you and your friends are going on a trip?’ The words just rang in my ears and my sleep seemed to have gone for a jog outside my body. I then scurried into the restroom and got ready. My hands were shaking violently as I was walking at a terrifying speed. My friends lounged on the couch. Their bags all packed and seemed to be rebuking me for being late. ‘Now, let’s resume with our day’s proceedings,’ I drawled thinking it to be a joke. We then embarked the cab and rode off to the beach. We all giggled and mumbled some songs together and in no time we reached our destination. We came howling out of the car, kept our luggage in the homestay, changed and bolted towards the wide expanse of sea. The sky seemingly touched the ocean as if it was patting it. The sun was perched high up in the sky and I squinting my eyes to find some seashells and unusual things. I then started sauntering and to my joy, I found some footprints bordered with a pale golden colour and were plated with bright silver. The footprints seemed to be leading deeper into the jungle. I then hollered and called my friends. They came striding towards me. They were also astonished at what they glanced. ‘Let’s go find out where the footprints
end!’ exclaimed John, his voice thundering. We ‘three musketeers’ then marched forward. “The magical footprints led us” deep into the thicket and we were just marveling at the beauty of nature. Just then a whirling wind came in and sucked us in it. We bawled like hounds and I felt like I was being washed in a circular motion, like being in a washing machine. We were then thrown out of the whirlpool and the three pillows flying towards us caught us each. The pillows then advanced in a sonic boom and we literally went ‘through’ many things. The waterfalls, plateaus, mountains, and oceans were the natural wonders we glared in great interest. It was like an impossible nature walk come true. Then a flash of light fell all around us and when I opened my eyes, I found myself on the bed in the homestay with my two friends sleeping beside me.
