It was a beautiful Saturday evening. My family and I have enjoyed delicious food and have watched a TV show ‘Man Vs Wild’ featuring Movie star Rajinikanth with Bear Grylls. I am a big fan of Bear Grylls and was thrilled to watch it. My science teacher has explained some of the details shown on his earlier shows which made me curious and watched him for some time now. I explained program details and science theories to the family. My grandparents were really happy with my explanations and told me that they liked the program only because of my explanations. I felt really appreciated and went to my room thinking about it. Since the next day is going to be SUNDAY a holiday, I planned to take a big nap and wake up late in the morning, just before breakfast. I was lying on the bed still thinking about the program and Bear Grylls, did not realize when I slept.


I woke up with the sound of loud noise. Shocked to find out that I am under the big coconut tree and the noise was nothing but the falling of a big bunch of coconuts next to me. When I checked them, my hiking bag was completely buried under it. I moved those coconuts and found my hiking bag is still ok. I was feeling hungry, so I cut a couple of coconuts and drank water. It was tasty and ‘malai’ was very delicious. I am feeling much better now and started noticing the place. I realized that I am on an island and no human being is seen nearby. I was frightened as I was alone. I have never stayed without my family until now. I searched around to see if there is anyone nearby.


Few hours must have gone by. I am feeling tired now due to the continuous walking. I found a big palm tree and sat in shade of it. While I was getting something to eat from my bag I heard the sound of a chopper. I immediately ran towards the sound only to notice that someone is landing near the mountains. I started shouting for help but of no use. With all my energy and courage, I started running towards the mountains in the hope to find some help from another human being.


I reached the base of the mountain to find one tall, bright person looking at the mountains. With all the courage, I shouted at him ‘Help me’. By now I have lost all my energy and fainted. My eyes opened due to the splash of water on my face. I am shocked that the man is none other than ‘Bear Grylls’.


I was still recovering from this shock. He gave me a hand and said ‘welcome young man. You are not alone here’. I was feeling hungry, so he gave me an energy bar from the bag. He told me that we are on the island and he is here to stay in these cave mountains tonight. I was thrilled and excited to hear this. I was his big fan and now I am going to get an opportunity to spend time with him.


Suddenly heavy rains started, and we have to run for shelter. Rains stopped after a while. I am back to normal by now but a bit hesitant. He sensed that and told me not to worry and just follow his instructions. He was the only hope for me, so I nodded my head and started following him. After an hour of hiking, we have reached the caves. The caves were very old and short, so we have to crawl. After crawling for some time, we reached a place where we can seat and breathe easily. Bear told me that this is a safe place and we can spend time here till sunrise. I was exhausted and fell asleep.


I don’t know how much time we spent like that but when I opened my eyes the sun was about to rise. The sky was full of orange color, similar to one I have seen in pictures. Beautiful! I could make out that Bear was awake the whole time and has already started planning to leave the caves. He told me ‘keep focus and follow me. Don’t look anywhere as we need to cross a narrow passage to reach another side of the caves’. I started following him and after a while, we reached another side of the caves. From there, we can see only the sea. He told me, we need to jump from here and hope we survive. I was really afraid and even before I could react he pushed me.


I screamed with all the possible energy ‘Save me’. I felt someone has smacked my face. Instead of drowning in the sea, I am only drenched in water and I was hearing big laughter around me. My mom has just poured a bucket of water on me and everyone in the family is standing next to me. By now I have realized that my beautiful dream is over and thanks to my loud shout everyone in the family is going to know about it.


Somehow to date, I have kept this as secret, request you to keep it with you!!
