I took a deep breath and decided to focus on the dark. Everything seemed black, but I was certain, I would not discover wild creatures that would strike me. I slowly pulled my phone out from the left pocket and nothing else could shock me more than seeing that there was no network. Without any doubt, my jaw fell. There was no signal!
Did my dad really have to pick this place? I told him the shore side was better. Being lost is definitely not adventurous. Atleast not in the woods.
As I continued walking, I saw a group of people in a far range. It didn’t seem very dark and dull over there. Not sure whether to ask them about the directions or not, I started to walk towards them. A girl, not less than 12 years old, ran towards me and asked me, "where are you going," slightly in a Russian accent. I was shocked she wasn't disprage like other strangers would have been. Instead, she patronized me. Cracking my voice uncomfortably, I said, "I’m looking for my way to the hotel. Do you know where it could be?" As soon as I said that, the girl smiled instantly and started to giggle. I renovated, "I'm lost," giving her a soft, indigent smile. "What’s your name?" she asked me in a soft gawky voice. I didn’t know if I was supposed to tell that to a stranger or not, but I somewhat told her. She pointed towards a walkway that lead towards the garden and told me the lobby was there. I then realized how idiotic I could be, not knowing I was actually at the backside of the hotel. I couldn’t see a single thing due to darkness. I gave a smile at myself, and gratefully said, "thank you," to her, since she extricated me. I turned around and walked back to where I came from, deciding to find my way back to the lobby from the front side of the hotel. I thought it’d be fun to purposely get lost once again.

DeleteI'm impressed! I never knew you had a thing for writing. When I read this, i was a bit confused at first but then it got clear as the story started to end. I felt like i was in your place walking through some dark place getting scared. The story is very well written and I hope you continue writing such stories, it's really nice. :D
ReplyDeletethank you. i'm glad you liked it... and umm, i will continue to write more nice stories :P
DeleteWow! That was an amazing essay. I'd give you a 101 out of a 100. I didn't know you write so well. Man, I wish I could write as good as you. Your essay was great. You really gave the feeling of how it was like to be lost, confused, scared and alone. You made me picture out what it was like. It was awesome. Though you may have some grammatical errors, it is still the best piece of writing yet. Keep up the writing.

DeleteExcellent writing, Ishita! This is a perfect writing indeed, and I really enjoyed getting myself all stuck in this essay. I was curious, I thought you were lost somewhere that is really scary and all, but it turns out that you were at the backside of the hotel xD I can really feel how it's like to be lost, by how you write this. This is excellent! Keep up the good work, and continue on writing such awesome writings :D

Thank you regii...im quite surprised people are actually liking my essay, and glad at the same time. Hopefully, i'll try to keep up the work :)
DeleteThis is a really creative essay! It brought back lots of memories of me getting lost :/ Even though a few phrases were out of place, I think you really caught the essence of the situation. I especially like the part where your phone was out of service; that seems to happen quite a lot in unfortunate situations! O_O One more great phrase is "held my thoughts". I'll have to remember that one! Great job =w=b
ReplyDeleteThank you so much.. i'm pleased you liked it. I'm sure there were phrases out of place, i'll try to fix them next time :P
