The Color of Bravery

*What is your favorite color? Is it blue, pink, black, purple or other color which I haven't mentioned? Or maybe same with me the color of bravery; red.* *But have you been in trouble or have some funny experience just because of your favorite color?* *It was during my Primary years in school, grade 3, when I experienced a trouble because of this color. How it happened is the story that I am going to share.* ***But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)*** ________________________ It was only a half-day class at the time, so my friends and I went home together at noon. We prefer to walk than to ride, because it is more enjoyable. The sky was already dark at the time, so there's a good chance that it will rain; we're excited. And yes, after only a few minutes of walking, heavy rain began to fall. We are happy because it was Friday at the time, and we can enjoy the moment while it is raining. Before going out in the campus, I already change my uniform blouse to T-shirt. So when the rain started, I use my blouse to cover my notebooks, so that it will not get wet. My bag already have thick silky garment inside, so the outer portion of the bag will get wet but not on the inside. We were already half way to our destination when we noticed a large herd of cows walking toward the river. *"Wait, I'm wearing red,"* one of my friend, Mark *(not his real name)* said. We're all scared because, as far as we know, cows don't like the color red. It will chase you if you are wearing red. So we stop in a distance, and wait for them to pass. Unfortunately, one of the cow look on us.Mark was already in a panic and exclaimed, *"Let's run!"* I take a look at myself and notice that my dark pink shirt and dark pink bag already turns to red because of the rain. *My mom loves to buy me everything in pink because according to her,"you are a girl, so pink for you."* And, yes, the cow begins to walk in our direction; however, in our panic, we flee in a different direction. Three of us run on the other side, while my girl bestfriend and I run on the other. We don't have a choice but to enter someone's home; their gate was open at the time, so we rushed in and hide. There was a small *kubo-house* inside the gate, with the door open so we could see what was inside. When I looked through the open door, I saw a man sleeping naked, with only a blanket covering his lower half. I cling to my best friend's arm and whisper *"there's a man inside. He is naked!"*, then she just replied *"sshhh! Keep quiet"* *Lol!* We found out that the cow was really chasing after us because it stop in our spot. It was looking around trying to find us. I felt so scared that time because first, if this man inside the house wake up, for sure he will scold us, and secondly if the cow caught us, for sure he will chase me first because I am wearing red like color. We wait and hide for almost half an hour, as I can remember. The rain already stop then we get out, luckily the man didn't woke up. Then we run going home. At Monday, me and my friends met again, and we were all laughing as we told each other about our various situations at the time. ________________________ ***Lead image was edited using*** *****PicsArt***** **** Author's love message : ***Hello lovely readers!*** ***How was your day?*** ***I include this experience as one of my Halloween week articles, because although this was not all about ghost or other spiritual entity; this experience was really scary.*** ***And Speaking of Halloween, have you visit in the cemetery?
