story. Again we started climbing up and trekked till sunset. Finally it was

night. I and my friend thought of exploring and have a little more

adventure on the hill. We thought of going to the haunted peak about

which we were talking the previous day. After having dinner we waited

for everyone to fall sleep.

At 2:00 am we started walking beyond our boundary. At last we reached

the peak. A very cold wind was blowing. The rustle of leaves was making

a very weird sound. As we moved forward we heard a sound of crying.

We saw a boy sitting on the rock and crying. We asked the boy what had

happened to him. He didn’t reply. His back was towards us. When we

touched the boy, his body was very cold. As the boy showed his face to

us, to our horror we saw he did not have eyes and his mouth was full of

blood. Both of us were very shocked and frightened. We ran away from

there as fast as we could. We reached camp site and slept in our tents.

But at night I thought someone was calling out my name. So I woke up

but saw there was no one in the tent. I started crying and suddenly

someone touched me from the back. I saw my mother near me ……….

She was waking me up for the school and then I realised that IT WAS

JUST A DREAM.
