An unforgettable gift

I was enjoying a bowl of noodles and looking at the various customers in the restaurant when suddenly I found what seemed to be a cockroach leg in my bowl.  I screamed immediately as I hated cockroaches so much.  Cockroaches were dirty and disgusting, weren’t they?

 

Well, all that happened last Sunday.  It was a big and special day and I went to the restaurant with my parents to celebrate.  The restaurant looked nice, clean and designed in a modern style.  Simply high-class, I’d say. I thought it was a beautiful restaurant with very good services at first.

 

When I sat down with my parents, I was attracted by the noodles ordered by the customers near us. I decided to have one too. A few minutes later, the food came.

 

“Yummy!” I thought.

 

“Wow, I’ve never waited for the food ordered for such a short time!” Mom spoke gladly.

 

Before my mom finished her words, I was eating it already. The beef was soft and the soup was made of shrimps and pig bones.  It was so delicious!! But all of a sudden, I saw a cockroach leg in the soup! I was shocked.

 

“Why will such a nice restaurant have a COCKROACH LEG in the food?” I thought. Oh! I even saw a fly floating in the soup, which made me scared and shiver.

A few seconds later, a man came to me,

 

“Hello, I’m from TVC and we’re making a TV programme. Is it scary? The fly and the cockroach leg are fake!”

 

At that time, I really wanted to hit him.  Although I was angry, I knew I was on a TV show, so I controlled myself. I answered calmly,

 

“Yup, they’re truly scary.”

 

I kept my manners as a gentleman.

  

I would never forget my 13th birthday present. I hope you won’t have my experience. After all, staying calm facing disgusting creatures was not an easy task!
