When I was in my early teens, I liked spending time in summer camps. It was fun and exciting. I made a lot of friends there. Once we, I and my 3 friends, were getting back from the camp canteen after the late supper. It was dark and the illumination was poor. We were chatting and playing fool, when I saw a glimming round object in the booshes to the left side of the alley. There was something unusual about it. Suddenly I understood that the object lookes like a big eye and it was blinking. There have to be two eyes, - I thought and got scared. Can you see that too, guy? - I asked. What's that? - they replied and looked the way I was ponting my trembling finger. They saw it too, and we went running in fear from that place.
