THE SURPRISE

“No, I can’t move another step!” Sara caught her painful knees, bending down.

“Hey run! Run fast! There is some animal behind you!” CK yelled, running in front of her, which made her to run unconsciously. Only when he turned back and laughed at her she realized nothing was following her. She started to beat him. He was trying to defend himself. She suddenly froze as if she was a statue. Seeing her reaction, he turned back fearing it would be some animal, but he didn’t notice anything weird. So, he was pulling her hand asking, “What is it?” She didn’t say a word. She just grabbed his hand and started to walk beside him in between the bushes. He kept repeatedly questioning her, “Where are we going?” She acted as if she didn’t hear his voice.

After a few minutes of walk through the bushes, “Shush!” Sara signaled, with a finger on her lips. CK stopped his questions midway wondering what it would be. Sara held his chin and turned it to face something. He saw a beautiful small hut before her, mostly covered by the branches of the trees.

“Oh my god!” He was astonished, with his hands rushing to his wide opened mouth.

“Surprise!” She beamed, jumping. He was wondering who would have built such a beautiful hut in between the bushes of forest.

“I built it for you,” Sara smiled, with her fingers pointing towards the hut.

“No, it would be the man-eater!” CK joked.

“No, you are scaring me again!” She tried to hide her fear, which was visible through her pretty eyes.

“Okay, then you go first,” he said, controlling his smile.

“What am I scared? I will!” She tried acting bold. She walked carefully and he just followed behind her. He was trying to scare her by suddenly making sounds near her ears. She just ignored him being conscious not to be fooled again.

Two logs were kept as steps to reach the door. Exhaling air, closing her eyes, she kept her one step on the log, one on the mud. She turned and saw him. He knew from her eyes that she wanted to be stopped but he was also sure that she wouldn’t open the door. So, he was teasing her saying, “I will wait here so that I can run, and you be their dinner today!” But to his surprise, she opened the door slowly. She shouted man eaters and started to run! Seeing her, he ran so far. Only then he noticed she was not running behind. She stood near the steps and was laughing covering her mouth. CK acted as if he was not afraid.

“I was trying to make your prank work at least once,” he said, continuing his act. She laughed like anything. For this happiness of you I can be pranked throughout my life , thought CK, admiring her.

“Okay, enough of acting get inside!” She was tired of laughing. There was a cot made of jute thread. It did not look like double-bed cot or single-bed cot.
