A frightening experience

Talk about a frightening experience

It was almost midnight I was going home on a bus There

was only one other passenger – a middle-aged man

I leaned back on my seat and closed my eyes, enjoying

the cool night breeze Suddenly, I felt a tap on my

shoulder I turned around and found the other passenger

grinning at me The man looked rosy in the cheeks and

reeked of liquor He was drunk

Before I knew it, he started running his fingers through my

hair I was terrified The next moment, he sat himself

beside me The bus-driver seemed too preoccupied with

driving to notice what was happening

The man looked angry suddenly and began to talk loudly I

was at my wits’ end and wished that I had not stayed out

so late Finally, I plucked up courage and rushed to a seat

near the driver so that he could help me should anything

happen Luckily the man did not follow me

After some time, the bus reached my housing estate

Before I alighted from the bus, I stole a glance at the drunk

man He was fast asleep I was thankful that I was not

harmed However, I was badly frightened and made up my

mind never to travel at late hours without company

Lost in a strange place

During my school holidays, I went to stay with my cousin’s

family in Penang for a week They lived in a hut in a

kampong

One fine morning, my cousin, Andy, and I went to fish in a

stream near the outskirts of the kampong Andy caught a

lot of fishes I was not as lucky and decided to move

further upstream to try another fishing spot I managed to

catch many small fishes there When I went back to look

for Andy, he was nowhere to be found Thinking that he

might have moved downstream, I followed the stream to

look for him

After some time, I realized that I had lost my way I began

to panic when I could not even find a public telephone to

make a call At that moment, I saw a signpost with a Malay

world “Polis” “Perhaps it means ‘Police’,” I thought and

ran quickly in that direction

I was right Ahead was a police-post, I told the policemen

what had happened They listened patiently to my

description of my cousin’s kampong Then one of the

policemen brought me back to my cousin’s hut How glad I

was to find myself safe with my relatives again It was

certainly horrifying to have lost my way in a strange place
