Standing on the edge of a 300-foot-high platform, looking down at the raging waters below, I felt a wave of dizziness wash over me.
Fear gripped me. I was terrified that I might accidentally fall off the edge and never have a chance to communicate with this world again.

Once she finished, she turned to look atand pointed at the other players who were preparing to jump. Her eyes sparkled with excitement, clearly eager to take the plunge.
"Hud, look! This bungee jump is even more thrilling than the roller coaster! I've done it before. It's a blast! You should try it too!" Sure, bungee jumping was exhilarating, but it really put my heart to the test.
I swallowed hard, managing a reluctant nod without daring to look away. With a gasp, one person jumped off the platform, followed by a chorus of gasps and screams from the onlookers, and my mind flooded with memories of news articles I had seen before.
"A woman attempts a high-altitude bungee jump but ends up falling to her death due to staff negligence." "Shocking! A bungee jump turns into a fatal accident at a rogue amusement park." Selena glanced at her phone, then turned to me, shaking the tickets in her hand. "Hud, I've already bought the tickets. After they jump, it'll be our turn." "Selena, do we really have to bungee jump?" I asked, unable to suppress the gulp that rose in my throat as I stared at the platform.
Riding the roller coaster had been a challenge for me, while bungee jumping felt like pushing my limits. "Hud, if you can handle the roller coaster, why not try the bungee jump? I remember you're fit enough for this," she said, looking atskeptically.
"I..." I glanced at her and ultimately chose to compromise, mechanically moving closer to her. I could feel the disdainful looks of several men around me, but I didn't care.
I closed my eyes, and suddenly everything turned dark. I opened my arms, feeling someone's hands moving over me. I frowned, realizing it didn't feel like the staff. I was puzzled when suddenly someone shoved me, and I fell to my knees.

Just that thought made my heart race, and a sharp sensation of panic washed over me.
"Who pushed me?" I stood up, slightly angry, and questioned the surrounding om inding crowd, but nobody replied. They all exchanged glances until Selena stepped forward, looking guilty.
"I'm sorry, Hud! I wasn't standing firm and accidentally bumped into you! I didn't think you'd be so scared. I'm really sorry!"
Scared? I didn't quite understand her words. All I felt was something warm running down my face when I raised g down my hand to touch it, I was shocked to find that I had started crying without realizing it.
