THE DANGEROUS GAME

I was a little boy playing round my father’s hut. How old would I have been at that time? I cannot
remember exactly , I still must have been very young, five , may be six years old. My mother was in the workshop
with my father and I could just hear their familiar voices above the noise of the anvil and conversation of the
customers.
Suddenly, I stopped playing. My whole attention was fixed on a snake that was creeping round the hut. It
really seemed to be taking a turn round the hut. After a moment, I went over to it. I had taken a reed in my hand,
a reed that was laying around which I thrust into the reptiles mouth. The snake did not try to get away .it was
beginning to enjoy our little game .it was slowly swallowing the reed. It was devouring it as if it were some
delicious prey. its eyes glittering with voluptuous bliss, and inch by inch its head drawing nearer to my hand. At
last, the reed was almost entirely swallowed up and the snakes jaw were terribly close to my fingers. I had not
the slightest fear ,and now know that the snake would not have hesitated much longer before burying its fangs
on my if , at that moment , Musa, one of the apprentice had not come out of the workshop. Musa shouted to my
father and almost at once, I felt myself lifted off my feet. I was safe in the hands of one of my fathers friends.
There was terrific commotion going on around me and my mother was shouting harder than anyone and
she gave me a few sharp slaps. I egan to weep more upset by the sudden uproar than by the blows I had
received.
A little later when I had calmed down a little, and the shouting had died down around me, my mother
suddenly warned me never to play such a game again, and I promised although I could not really see where the
danger in it lay.
