How to row a
Boat
On
Sunday morning, the sun was shining brightly. I and my friends, Joni and Rio spent
the day by visiting a big river. We decided to row a boat there. When I was
getting ready, suddenly someone from outside called my name. “Chan ... Chan ...!”
shouted him. As soon as, I came out because I knew that it was Joni’s voice. There
were two boys who sat in front of my house. They were Joni and Rio. Joni wore a white T-shirt and a black short
while Rio wore a plaid shirt and black shorts. Suddenly, they both laughed at my
appearance. As usual, I wore a long-sleeved white shirt and a black short. My
stomach looked bloat when wore the shirt.
When came to the area I was looking forward to row a boat that was there immediately. “Come on guys, quickly! “, I said.” Well, wait a minute. We have to pay the ticket first “said Rio.” Could you row a boat? This is the first time for you, right? “, said Joni. “Ah... without learning even I could do it. Just row to forward and backward. It was easy, right?” I said. After paying the ticket then we rushed to the place to row a boat. Then, we started up the boat. Rio and Joni rowed boat together while I rowed boat alone. “It was fair that I was alone because my body was fat. It seemed like two people “, I thought. But, it did not matter for me. While it was the first time for me, but I had ever seen how to row a boat on television even though I had never practiced it directly.
Rio and Joni rowed the boat first
time. After that, my turn came and I started up the boat even though the
security guard looked at me with bad looking. “He seemed to underestimate and thought
I could not row a boat ", I thought. Then, I rushed to row and prove to
people including the security guard that I could. I began to move the boat, but
something happened to me. The first minutes, I felt fine because my boat moved.
After that, I continued to row my boat but it would not to move. Then, I tried
to row again but my boat still would not move and just stuck. I was so confused
and scared. I glanced to the right and left side but there was nothing.
Then, I tried to row my boat again
quickly. Suddenly, one of my paddles was slip from my hand. It made the
security guard who had been watching me looked angry and then shouted to me. “Hey..You! Your paddle sank. Whether you can
row a boat or not? "He shouted. I was confused to answer his words. Rowing
the boat was not as easy as I thought of before. Then, the security guard
yelled again to me "Hey,,, Fatty ! Come here quickly!” He said with an
irksome face. With a red face I moved my boat to the edge. After that, he asked
me to get off my boat. Then, I said, “Could you help me to get up, Sir? I could
not do it alone. With the upset face then he started to help me. After that, I
knew the name of the security guard who wore short sleeve jersey, a short and a
black hat was Mr. Billy. Suddenly, he said to me "If you did not know how
to row a boat, do not be pretentious. I would give you an example how to row a
boat well”. Then, he started to do it.
I just
stood on the edge and noticed how Mr. Billy rowed the boat. With a relaxed face,
he began row his boat slowly. “Hey… Fatty!! Here was the good way to row a
boat”, he said. Suddenly, I saw Joni and Rio stood up and shouted "Hey..
Sir..Sir ! ! Look out behind you. There was a rock”. But, Mr. Billy ignored him
and pretended to know. He still rowed the boat. Suddenly, "Crash… ! !
"The sound came from Mr. Billy’s boat. Mr. Billy’s boat hit a rock and he
fell forward. He stumbled forward and fell into the water. Seeing him, I
laughed out loud on the edge. My friends and another visitor there also laughed
at him. With an ashamed and wrinkled face he tried to stand up and return the
position of the boat by himself. No one helped him and he looked so pity. I
would never forget the accident until whenever.
