An unforgettable event in my life.

This incident which I'm going to relate happened good old six years back, but the memory of it still rankles in my mind. From the very early years of my life itself, I had a great passion for aqua. I always wanted to swim, go on boat rides, make myself comfortable on surfing etc. Because of this unsatiable desire I had for water sports, my father always took the initiative in arranging journeys, so throughout the year we went to various places where we can swim, dive or row.

One sunny day my father, said that we would go for a jet ski ride in the lake. I was elated by the idea and asked three friends of mine to join me. There were five people inclusive myself, and we all went to the lake. There wasn't many people by the lake side on that day and the jet skis were also out of order, so we decided to go on a swan lake ride. Swan lake boats are peddaled boats built up in a shape of a swan. We all were in one boat and we had a really good time.

It began to rain all of a sudden. Whole area got darkened in a flash. We were far away from shore at that time, but we decided to go back as it wasn't a good deed to be on water when it's raining heavily. Having the idea of going back soon, we started peddaling speedily, then the most unexpected thing happened. One of my friends named Sasanka was sitting at the back seat having a little nap, we heard him calling our names as we accelarated and just in the time of an eyewink he fell into the water. I knew very well that he couldn't swim, so I asked my father to jump into the water and rescue him. My father was a good swimmer and he rescued Sasanka, and brought him back to the boat. When we pulled Sasanka inside I saw him bleeding heavily. His arm had been injured badly by the blades of the boat. We all were shocked and a minute or two went passing with complete silence. I was also out of my senses, but I heard my father crying indistantly. We all fell back to our state and it didn't take a a while to understand the situation we were in. We starting rowing so speedily and arrived the shore in twenty minutes. Sasanka was taken to the hospital immediately. Even after six years, I'm still agitated when that memory comes into my mind. The screams of his agony still echo in my brains. I find that incident, the most unforgettable event in my whole life. I can still see the scar in Sasanka's hand. I'll bet to my last rupee that, Sasanka would alsoo find that incident most unforgettable.
