One
day, as I was returning home late from school at about 7.30 p.m., I was
Dismayed
to discover a group of rough-looking boys following me.
As I
quickened my steps, one of them, apparently the leader, obstructed my path
and ordered me to surrender to him my watch and my wallet. At first I
resisted, but, when he threatened to cause me harm, I quickly handed over the
items. I felt frightened and, at the same time, mad, having to part with my
possessions as they were of sentimental value tome. Once they had taken
possession of my properties, they laughed and made their way to a coffee shop
nearby while I was left fuming by the road.
At
first I wanted to report the incident to the police but, later, I decided
against it and went straight home. I told my parents about it and they
concluded that it was unsafe for me to walk alone. They then arranged
for me to go in my neighbour's car and that solved the problem.
