KICKED BY THE COW

Early this morning, about six o' clock, my father asked me to buy a candle in the sari-sari store.He is used to light a candle every morning. I also bought my favorite candy "Haw Haw". When I'm on my way home, I noticed that the plastic contains a picture of a cow. Then, memories of my unforgettable experience came back.

It was Saturday, October 22, 2011. It is already a week from now. I went to my cousin's house to do my module in Araling Panlipunan. Their house is somewhat isolated. There are few houses in their place and you can count the number of houses there. Before I arrived in their house, I passed on the fishponds.

I finished late. When my younger sister and I were about to go home, we noticed that our slippers were bitten by the dogs. We repaired our slippers to avoid hassle while walking. We became more late in going home.

We were about to finish passing the fishponds when I noticed that there is a cow on the end of it. The cow ate some grasses. The owner of the cow was there and he is just watching his cow. I told him to get his cow out of our way because there is a tendency that we might fell from the water. But he did not listen.My younger sister made the first move. She passed through the very side to avoid the cow. She succeeded. And next was my turn. Before I moved, I joked myself that the cow will kicked me. But I made up my mind by thinking that the cow will never touch me. The cow didn't hurt my younger sister so it will never hurt me, too. I pass to the very small space carefully. I made my move without touching any part of the body of the cow. Unfortunately, the cow kicked me. I almost fell from the water. I was thankful that there is a tree near me so I held my hand there. The owner of the cow and my younger sister laughed at me. And I joined them laughing. I laughed myself because it is really fun to be kicked by the cow. And I'm not hurt.

When we arrived home, the angry face of my grandmother welcomed us. Then, she preached us.

When I came home, my father saw me smiling. He even asked if I am going crazy. I just told him that remember something -something funny.

Cows are not harmful. They just know on how to understand people. Maybe, the cow understood what I said before passing. Maybe, the cow thought that I like to be kicked. Try to be  kicked by the cow! It's really fun!
