We all probably have been scared many times.  Do you have the day that you are the most scared? Probably you do. First, let us talk about what being scared means?. A scare is a feeling. It is also called fear. Sometimes we get scared when we see a snake or any image in the dark etc. 
Today, I am going to share about my scariest day. 
When I was in grade two, my family planned to meet my little sister Kusum. Her house is in Dhapakhel. It was a long drive in the car and I have motion sickness. We reached there around 2:30 P.M and I was not feeling good. At that time, Kusum was in her school. After an hour my mother told me to pick her up from school. My aunt (Kushum’s mother) and I went to Kushum’s school. It took us twenty minutes to reach the school. I was so happy to see my sister, she was so surprised to see me there. We hugged each other. While returning home, my aunt had some work so, she asked me to take Kushum home. Now, being an elder sister it was my responsibility to take her home safely. On the way back home both of us were talking and laughing. After five minutes something unexpected happened. I noticed a person with a giant bag was following us. At first, he walked slowly, then he started to chase us. I was so scared. I ran as fast as I could. I carried Kushum and ran. I thought that was the last day of my life. I was so scared that I did not see anything. I  did not know where I was going, I just ran to the first path that came on my way. If I got lost, I could ask people and reach home, but I would never reach home if that person caught me. Those types of thoughts were coming to my mind. I prayed to God to save us. Luckily, I saw the gate of my house. I was so relieved and happy.  I quickly ran inside and locked the gate. I told everything to my mom. When she knew that, she was also scared. The next day, when I was going to the nearest shop, I saw the same person, he was staring at me but I was not afraid because my parents were near me but still whenever I think about that incident, it frightens me. That day was the scariest day of my life.
