Rebecca and Andrew

The Bungie Jump

Rebecca approached eagerly to the door of her friend Andrew's apartment and began to knock like she always does. "Andrew! Open up! I have another thing we need to do!" The door opened up within a couple seconds. Andrew appeared at the door, his short brown hair and bright blue eyes greeted her at the door. "What, what is it Rebecca? I'm in the middle of something important—" and before Andrew could finish his sentence, Rebecca had grabbed his hand and was pulling him down to the exit of the apartment building.

Andrew had no idea where Rebecca was taking him. "Andrew, today we go bungie jumping!" It felt like his heart dropped. "B-Bungie jumping?! Rebecca, you know I'm scared of heights!" he exclaimed. "Come on Andrew! Don't be so scared. The best way to experience life is to face all of your fears head on and not care about what happens!" She said as they began walking up a huge set of stairs. Andrew tried to not think about how high they were going. "OK Andrew! We are at the top of this cliff—" she began to put on some gear that she had brought with her, "—here put this stuff on." She handed Andrew his set of gear. He was as pale as a ghost. "Y-You sure this is safe Rebecca?" She gave him a determined look. "I'm positive." She said as she jumped off the cliff. Rebecca felt like she was in slow motion, as she gracefully fell, until the rope that was apart of her gear pulled her back up to the top of the cliff, where Andrew was watching in awe at what he had just witnessed. She grabbed onto the edge of the cliff and pulled herself up, dusting herself off and smiling at Andrew. He looked interested, but still hesitant. "I'm guessing that confirms your question about this being safe." She said as she pushed her blonde hair out of her face. "I guess so." Andrew said as he approached the edge of the cliff, ready to jump and face his fear of heights. He took a deep breath, as he then jumped off. He stayed calm as he was pulled back up to the edge of the cliff, which he as well grabbed and pulled himself up. "See, now was that so scary Andrew?" She asked him as she gave him a big smile. "No, I guess it wasn't as bad as I thought." he replied. They began to take turns bungie jumping off the cliff for about another thirty minutes, then they decided they were finished for the day.

Later, after getting some food, Andrew returned home to finish whatever thing he had to do, now very thankful for Rebecca for helping him face his fear of heights. Rebecca returned home and watched a movie or two, then later went to bed, ready for the next day of her life.
