THE GIRL ON THE MOTORBIKE

In the early hours of November the 1 - st, 1999, a motorbike was speeding along the A20 in Kent.

The night was dark and there was very little traffic on the road.

Clivc Taylor was in a hurry to get home.

He had been to a party and left London later than he had expected.

As he approached Wrotham Hill, he glanced at his watch.

Exactly two o'clock.

He changed gear and sped up the hill A minute later he reached the top of the hill.

It was a dangerous place for accidents.

But with so little traffic on the road, Clive didn't slow down.

Suddenly, he saw a girl She was standing in the middle of the road.

Clive had to swerve to avoid knocking her down.

But she didn't move.

When he had stopped, the girl calmly walked up to him and asked him if he could give her a lift.

He asked her what she was doing in such a lonely spot.

She said that there had been an accident.

Clive looked around, but he couldn't see a car or any other people.

He asked the girl what had happened, but she didn't reply.

Clive told her to get on the motorbike and to hold tight.

As the girl climbed on, Clive suddenly felt very cold, but he noticed that she was only wearing a light dress.

She looked as if she were on her way to a party.

They rode on down the hill and Clive talked to the girl over his shoulder.

He asked her what her name was and where she lived.

But she didn't reply.

At one point Clive thought that she shouted something, but he couldn't hear very well over the noise of the motorbike's engine.

At the bottom of the hill there was a telephone box.

Clive pulled off the road and stopped.

But when he turned round, he froze in horror.

The girl wasn't there.

He called out, but there was no sign of her.

Then Clive remembered the shout that he had heard.

Had the girl fallen off the motorbike?

In cold sweat, he rode back up to the spot where he had first seen the girl.

Peter's parents died when he was a child of 5.

He was brought up by his grandmother who

took great care of the child and did her best to make him happy.

But the boy was very shy and

One day he took his bicycle and went for a ride.

Suddenly he saw another cyclist in the

distance.

Soon he could see that the cyclist was a young girl.

As soon as the girl noticed Peter she

increased her speed as she didn't want Peter to catch up with her.

Suddenly Peter remembered that a

few yards ahead of them there was no road as the bridge across the river was under repairs.

Peter

realised that the girl would run a terrible risk in case she tried to cross the bridge.

He cried out to her

to stop, but it was too late.

The girl had reached the bridge and at once Peter saw her lose balance

and fall into the water together with her bicycle.

When Peter rode up he saw the girl holding on to a

board standing in the water.

Without a moment's hesitation he jumped into the water as he wanted

to help the girl.

The current under the bridge was very strong and Peter had to swim against it.

At

last he swam up to the board and saw the girl's frightened eyes looking at him with hope.

"Can you

swim?

" asked Peter but the girl shook her head.

Peter ordered the girl to hold on to his neck and they both started for the bank.

It was very

difficult for Peter to swim with such a burden and at moments it seemed to him that he could not

stand the strain and that they both would be drowned.

When they reached the bank, Peter was so

tired that he could hardly breathe.

When he came to himself he saw the girl looking at him with

"You are a real hero", she said.

"You are the bravest boy I've ever met", and she smiled.

And

it was at that moment that Peter felt a great confidence in himself.

He was afraid of nothing now, he

was able to overcome any difficulty.
