One day I woke up in the morning and was getting ready for school. I tried to wear my shoes but I could not put my feet inside. I thought, “what’s that inside my shoe?” I shook my shoes. Then I saw that there was a frog inside the shoe. I was very scared. I thought why the frog always entered my shoes only. And I never saw a frog like this. Earlier, I thought that it lives only in the forest but when I saw it here then I was very shocked. And the frog always enters my room and I have to keep my shoes in the upper rack. All day long I used to think why the frog disturbs me everyday. When I go to sleep I dream about the frog. One day I saw a frog in my garden I was very shocked and there was not one but there were three frogs. I was very scared. Then I went to play with my friends. I saw one more frog. And in the morning I went to school I saw a frog. And when I came back from the school then I saw one more frog. And the whole night I thought about the frog that why the frog is around me all the time. The next morning I went to school then I was thinking about the frog then suddenly I saw a frog and I was shocked and felt that I should do something. I came home and asked my father why the frog is around me. He told me that because you think about the frog the whole day, your mind stays on that thing only that’s why the frog is around you. Now I understand why the frog was around me. The first time I was very afraid but now I am not. The colour of the frog was grey with green spots. Sometimes it is small, sometimes it is big. My mother told me that some people eat frog. I will never wear a frog-coloured dress. My father told me that some people study frogs. Frogs make me laugh.
