My heart was pounding violently. My brother stared at me, amazed and frightened. Have he ever thought of any accidents he could make? I felt energy lurking out of my body. Sweat poured all over my face. What should I do?

" Cover it up, you will not want mum to see it, would you?" said Jake.

I hesitated. What if I die with insufficient blood? But what nightmare would it be when mum and dad scolds me sternly beating me up? I made my decision to cover it up as the punishment from my parents are too scary. I quickly dashed towards the first aid box, in fact, I could not. My foot was aching severely. Blood was pouring out from my soul. My brother was crying thinking of punishment.

"Help me get a roller!" I shouted.

He ran towards the storeroom and gave me the rollers my mum used to curl her hair. I was annoyed and was raging. When my brother saw my pale face, he suddenly acknowledged what I was saying and gave me the rollers for injuries. I wrapped it around my foot. It was the most painful thing I have ever done! Both mourning and sweating, my brother was helpless but looking at me with his silly eyes. I suppressed the pain with all my effort but I could feel my bones cracking touching my nerves. It was breath-taking and agonizing. I slowly wrapped bandages my foot around for three times. It was all set.

I slowly walked into the toilet to check my condition. It was disastrous. My face was as pale as a ghost. As my parents would be here in half an hour. I quickly got the cosmetics of my mother and put the red colouring on my face. I put on lipsticks too seeing my mouth was dry. I really wanted to cover it up.

Suddenly, we heard the footsteps of our mum. We quickly settled ourselves and pretended that nothing happened. My mum suddenly gave out a huge laugh when she saw us. My brother and I looked towards each other confused. My mum was laughing and was shaking vigorously. She pointed at me and giggled hard. I was shocked.

"Is she insane?" My brother asked me.

" She is not normal," I replied.

She told me to walk towards her. BANG! I accidentally fell on the floor and my shoes fell off. My mother gave out a huge cry. I knew I was exposed and my mum, without saying a word, drove me to the hospital.

It was abnormal at the hospital. Everyone was staring at me laughing. What are they laughing at? They are laughing just the same way my mum was. I was sent to the doctor immediately. When the doctor saw me, he chuckled a bit, then he was serious at my case. We found out that my foot was badly injured and some bones cracked seriously. The doctor said that the case was in critical condition and surgery is needed to fix my trauma. My mum was anxious and she quickly agreed. She looked at me amicably. It was the first time in my life! I was very grateful for not getting scolded.She looked at me amicably. It was the first time in my life! I was very grateful for not getting scolded. At the same time, I was quite frightened to do the surgery.

I was anesthetized. I woke up the next day and found myself recovering from the pain! All my family members were around me, looking at me amiably. I was not scolded nor punished, instead I was taken care by love of my family.
