about this story

My younger sister and I were playing hide and seek in the forest,of course she was the seeker, she usually was because I was much better than her at hiding. One day I saw a tree, but it wasn't just any tree. This tree had branches that seemed to spread out endlessly across the sky. I decided that this would be where I'd hide. As I climbed up the never ending branches I couldn't help but admire their beauty, that was until I realized I'd gone too far up. I began to panic, what if I fell? What if I can't ever get down? I called for my sister, hoping she could hear my cries from where she was counting. Sure enough she heard and went to a nearby store for help. As I waited for her return I couldn't help but feel small among the trees, I felt at peace, forgetting the danger I could be in. When my sister had finally arrived with help I felt that I was not ready to get down, I'd taken a liking to this tree. Nonetheless I got down and rode my bike back home safe. I'm not allowed in the forest anymore but I wish I could go back to the tree, it was an experience I'll never forget.
