SLIDE IN - CHAPTER 7

Well, there is some pleasure in being barefoot. Yoga is done barefoot and being barefoot can also save your life. You have made a choice to remove your boots so you take your right foot out of your boot after loosening laces.

You right foot is no longer stuck. You try to remove your sock but your foot touches the glue again. Now your sock is stuck. Thankfully, your foot is not.

You take your leg out of your sock and step on it to create balance for removing another boot. Your idea works. Your left foot is free too. Keeping the rotten smell of your socks aside, you start to calculate how many leaps it would take for you to reach near the door.

Two. You are sure.

You throw your sock to the distance to where you can jump to. Then you jump over it like a one legged kangaroo. You smile in relief but the happiness doesn’t last long. Aliens are already coming near the door from which you had come in the passage.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

You open your vest then throw it. You then leap to it.

You start to lose your balance at the moment you step on it. You spread your arms like an eagle to avoid falling face first into the slime. You don’t want to die like a rat. You are not a mouse so you know how to keep your balance.

You bend backwards. Tataaa…you have maintained balance.

The happiness you have got in some occasions after jumping in the craft has not lasted for long. This time the case is also no different. Aliens come out from the door ahead of you.

You look back. There are also aliens with loaded guns. You are trapped. You know there is no hope. You wanted death as an honor. Maybe you will get it as a result of stupidity.

You were the one who had chosen to slide in the craft for sake of being a hero. Anyways, you are at a dead end.

Nobody wants to die this early in the adventure. At least I wouldn’t so there is a lifeline for you.

There is no choice here but is a luck factor.

Search for a coin in your room. If you can’t find it then anything will do. Paper note, book or whatever. Just decide which side is going to be heads or tails. You choose whether you want heads or tails.

Okay, you have called the side. Now toss the coin.
