Our vacations were soon coming to an end. frankly
speaking it wasn’t a very thrilling, adventurous or a at least different from
the past years the same old story. When our vacations started all of us I mean
our parents , we four cousins and our grandfather went on a tour to a few
different places but couldn’t enjoy the things we actually went there for
.After that me, my mom and my brother went near our brother to banjo my mom and
my brother left soon but I happened to stay there for a few days , I never got
to know how that few days stretched to an whole month .And when I returned I
was left with just ten days .TEN DAYS . What possible adventure could I have in
ten days is what I thought but little did I know I was completely wrong. Okay
that’s a lot for an introduction let me introduce myself now I am aura a
fourteen year old who wants a bit of adventure in her life ,well not a bit but
a lot .”aura are you done talking to yourself? if yes, then would you mind
coming down to have your breakfast “ said mom. “Yes mom, and by the way I was
not talking to myself” well I have habit of recording things so when they don’t
actually see me recording they think I’m talking to myself .well things aside ,the
first day of that adventure started in this very house with a similar
conversation.
“so where do you think that place is which dad
mentioned earlier some relatives house I’m done with going to these kind of
boring places I don’t want to spent the last ten days of my vacations there “ I
said felling a bit angry “just shut up , its not like your going to spend it
any better” said Andy, he was my elder brother one annoying body in our house.
“I knew it , it was of no use telling you” I said “Andy ,aura come and have
your breakfast” mom called us from the kitchen “COMING”. We went in the kitchen
to have breakfast and there we saw our aunt well she does normally come talk to
my mom and they spend time together but this time it was something about going
somewhere “I say we can go to sisal city and then go to heses “said my aunt,
turning towards me she continued “well now the children are here why don’t you
ask them ,after all four of them are better off with each other”, “what do you
mean four of them” I asked quite astonished ,“well we are going with you to
banjo , and anyways sisal city falls on its way ,we wanted to give it a visit
from a long time so we thought why not , and I know just the two of you will
get bored so neon and Kirsch are also coming “said aunt “ well then that’s great ,at least we don’t
have to be the only one getting bored in that place “ I said happily, “I bet
you wont get bored “ said aunt ,and her name is Regina so aunt Regina . “I have
got to say you have a lot of confidence on that place ,the last time you
visited was ten years ago and you don’t know its condition now “said mom
looking a little worried. By the time they turned back I was half way up
running to Kirsch to tell him this . “kirsch do you know we are going to boring
place with some addition but thank god we are all together and as usual we four
cousins are going with uncle vat , and don’t
forget to wear sports shoes though we are not going for hiking I guess it will
come use in the farm and also—“ , kirsch interrupted me half way “okay first I knew that we were going there , second not
sure if we are actually going it was just a plan and its not confirmed “, “but
kirsch-“ “no wait I’m not done yet thirdly we don’t need sports shoes in the
field “ kirsch stopped and took a deep breath , before he started again I said
“now wait till I finish and don’t interrupt , there is a very high possibility
that we are going ,secondly we can convince them to go together thirdly the
sports shoes are not just because we are going in the field ,you never know
which adventure awaits you so always be prepared “I was about to continue when
he said “what if there is no adventure what adventure will you possibly have in
one and a half day” I was shocked and devastated “one and a half day , what do
you mean that’s not possible an adventure in so less….. time I guess I was a
fool hoping for one “ ,”wait we might have a small adventure but what type of
adventure were you looking forward to?” asked kirsch still trying to console
me, “well I don’t want a small adventure I wanted something fictional something
the outside world wont believe and those kind of adventures do not happen in a
day “ I though all of this would never be possible but little did I know that this
one and a half day was going to be the most adventures one .
After listening to what kirsch had said I was not in a
very good mood, I didn’t have the same enthusiasm while climbing down the
stairs I met my aunt half way ,she saw me and said
“what’s with the face , why so dull ?”, “aunt is it
true that we were just planning to go and even if we did it would be for a day
and a half “ I said hoping for a better answer , she looked at me and said
“well it true but that’s because our limit is just one and a half day and that
too on a weekend , if not we cant as neon and Andy will have their collage and
the cannot miss it “, “well that does make sense “ I said though it was
reasonable I wasn’t convinced and in fact I don’t think it was possible for
anybody to convince me at that time.
I was laying down in my room my dad came in he sat
beside me and asked “what is it, why are you sad “ “dad you are asking me why I
am sad to begin with you should never have told me about going to that place
till it was confirmed , because you told me about it I got curious especially
when you described the house and the fields . why did you tell us if it was not
confirmed , now maybe its not possible for aunt Regina and her family to come
as well , I was hoping for an adventure not sitting in the house doing nothing during the last ten days of my
vacation” I was so angry that I told dad things I didn’t mean I was basically
venting out my anger at him , but he was calm yet I could feel that I hurt him
he said “ we will try our best and if not possible you still have so many
holidays we can all during that time . you should learn to control your anger
and try to think through it. Now get, wash your face and do some work or paint
something don’t think too much about that we will handle it .” I got up and
said “I guess I will leave it up to you and I’m sorry for earlier.
After this I
went ahead to paint something and I exactly knew what I wanted to paint a world
I imagined for my adventure. Three days later all of us had breakfast together
our parents started discussing about the visit. after about an hour they
finally called us and told that we will be going to both the places but it will
be for a day and a half we would leave early on Saturday morning go to sisal
city, and then to the relative in heses, stay there overnight and leave by
Sunday evening. the plan seemed perfect. I wasn’t disappointed I was still
hoping for something and didn’t let my hopes down.
As soon as it was confirmed I was pretty exited. Three
days went by it was Friday and we would leave tomorrow . I was packing a few
clothes I heard someone come in ,it was kirsch , he sat down and as soon as he
did I started telling him about what to do” listen first sports shoes don’t
forget” “ya ya I got it “ he said “ come on be a little excited ,finally we are
going and maybe we can really have a good experience” I said and got up to get
my cloths “ hey but don’t to think you are getting too hyped up , what if its
just a normal visit or why don’t you enjoy it like a normal visit “ said kirsch
looking a bit worried , by the time I could tell him something his mom called ,
“ I guess I have to go bye “ and kirsch went away. But I continued thinking
about the adventure .
It was about five in the morning when my mom woke me
up , I was too sleepy but I had to get up after all it was the day I was
waiting for. I got and for the first time I was ready before everyone else.
“what a surprise , I though you said the place might be boring “ said Andy
trying to ruin my mood early in the morning “ well why don’t you focus on getting
ready before trying to mock me because you should know that we are leaving in
ten minutes “. I left the room and came out I had a pretty good feeling about
this . We all got into the car first as usual we would go to the near by food
stall to have breakfast then we would officially leave for the place without
any stops . Were about to reach that place I had to agree it was beautiful ,
finally we reached the house the moment I got down from the house I was
dumbstruck it was the most amazing place I have ever been to it was at the
bottom of a hill but it was calm , cool and peaceful . It was surrounded by a
forest , across the road right in front of the house was their field its was
with beetle nut trees and coconut trees this made that place very shady . “hey
don’t you think this place is beautiful” said uncle vat we all agreed to it ,”
hey take my photos at this place , I swear they will come out so good” said
neon taking out her camera “ who should” all three of us asked at once “Andy
you take my photos , the pictures clicked for me last time came out so good”
said neon “ Ya I guess that’s why we came here clicking pictures” I and kirsch
said feeling left out but soon we saw a few puppies and soon were distracted.
Our parents soon went to meet our relatives . She were our grandfathers sister so she would be
our parents aunt , and for us she was grandmother .I was busy thinking about
that when I saw the fields . As soon as saw that I ran to our grandmother and
asked her if we could go there “ why don’t you have your lunch first and then
your uncle will accompany you and show you the fields” she said that and then
was about to go in kitchen when I asked her “ why should uncle bother coming we
will go by ourself” “ well there are a few parts you cant go , you don’t know
which part that’s why he is coming , and don’t try going there” she said “parts
we should not go , why , where is it “ I said quite exited “ no nothing special
we sowed seeds there we don’t want you to stamp on those” she said feeling
uneasy , the expression clearly showed that she was lying. But I didn’t want to
force her into telling the reason but instead I would find that out myself. You
know that when someone is asked not to do something it makes them want to do
that more well I’m that someone here. I said ok and went out Andy was still
clicking neon’s pictures and kirsch was standing beside him this was the
perfect time to tell everyone. “Andy, neon, kirsch listen I went in and asked
about the field everything seemed normal until she said there was a part where
we were not supposed to go because they have sown seeds there I did not ask her
anything else but that is more that enough to prove the point that there is
something else there I could see she was lying that face people make when they
are lying she was making that face “ I stopped “ hey slow down what is all of
this about “ said neon “ well by all of this I mean we could go and explore the
restricted part” I said looking at neon “are you crazy when they say its
restricted there must be some reason , I’m the eldest I have to take care of
all of you I don’t want to get into trouble” said neon looking tensed “ well
how dangerous could it be ?” said Andy slowly joining the conversation “ but-“
neon was about to say no when kirsch also joined and said “ yes Andy is right
how dangerous could it be “ I was happy that they were taking my side , I said
“ ok then why don’t we go there around 6pm , we are going there after the lunch
with uncle so we definitely cant go at that time “ “what else can we do we will
go but we will inform them “ said neon tired of convincing us “what a joke ,
tell them ? they are not allowing us to go there with our uncle you think they
will allow us to go alone” said kirsch “do you were it is “ asked Andy I said “
I don’t know” “ then how do you think we will go there” asked Andy annoyed “
well when they take us for a tour around the field any place that looks
suspicious we will act like we are going there if they stop us we will ask why
and then we will get to know “ I said confidently ,” I say that you sure have a
brain of the size of a walnut you think they are that stupid we have to think
of another way” said kirsch “ then why don’t you tell a way” I said irritated ,
“ well guys I think I have a plan” said neon we were surprised neon rarely gave
away ideas and when she did they always worked out , we all eagerly asked what
it is, she said “ leave that to me all you have to do is to go out with our
parents when I start talking to uncle , and also once we go in that place if I
feel something is not right we have to get out that instant” said neon.
