An Unforgettable Experience

It stopped raining a little later and we sprang

back outside onto the field to play football.
Of course, by now the pitch was wet and slippery

and my friend Joshon slipped and accidentally

kicked the ball into the nearby bushes.

“Get the ball. You are the closest!” shouted my
friends.

“Vashirn, you are the closet, so you go for it!”

ordered Jahmari.

I crept into the bushes to fetch the ball, trying to

dodge the sharp prickles on the branches of the

dry bushes encircling the field.

Finally, I caught sight of the ball and threw it out

to my friends. I turned around, carefully avoiding

the prickles and a huge Jack Spaniard Wasp nest.
