My Encounter With A Tiger!

 

Last year, my family and I went to Jim Corbett National Park during my summer vacaion. It was a long and a little tiring train journey but we were so happy to see the resort once we reached there.

Throughout our train journey, I was so excited to visit the tiger safari. It was my dream to visit a real forest and see animals living there. As we settled in our room I was too tired to do anything but to go to sleep.

As I was observing room’s décor I saw a picture on the wall, it was a picture of a furious tiger! I was scared to look at it so hid my head under the blanket.

When I woke up, I found myself alone in a thick jungle! Frantically, I was looking here and there but couldn’t find anyone. Suddenly I saw the same tiger whose picture I had seen in the hotel room. The tiger was staring at me and started coming towards me slowly. As I started to run away from the tiger, it started to chase me. I was running with my full speed but tiger was coming closer and closer towards me. I was about to lose my breadth and fall, when I saw a tree. I immediately climbed the tree. Tiger stopped but it was still staring at me from the ground. As I looked into its eyes, I lost the balance and fell from the tree. I started screaming the loudest I could.

After a few seconds, I heard my parents’ voices as they were trying to pacify me. At that time, I realized that I had fallen from my bed in my sleep! I was lying on the floor with my parents sitting next to me looking little worried but amazed. I realized it was indeed a dream! I was relieved that there was no tiger chasing me but as I looked at the picture on the wall, the tiger there was still staring at me!
