How I Almost Died When I Was 10
Sometimes Sad Stories Can Be Funny Too.
Short-story time.
That’s Puri Beach, Orissa. It was my first time on a beach.
Beautiful it was, where I went with my family. My parents are very fond of adventures, trips, exploring, etc.
That’s how my dad got the idea to hire a photographer and get a different kind of picture taken — a picture inside deep water.
I was reluctant and scared. He, being 6'2" in height, went deep inside the water and took me, the little one, with him.
Suddenly I realized that I was standing in a similar pose:
And to add a little adventure by mother nature, a big wave came. It went above my head, the sand below my feet moved, and I slipped.
I went into the water and was unable to react. Dad tried a lot to find me; he was shaking his legs and hands in every direction, striving to grab hold of me.
I opened my eyes, and water was everywhere. I moved my hands a lot but couldn’t save myself.
