Male Female
There are a lot of situations when ingenuity has helped me in difficult situations. A few months ago, I had gone to take an examination. But because of the fog, my train back home got canceled. So I decided to travel back by bus. The bus dropped me at my city's bus station at around 2 am. I had told my friends that I would be coming by bus, but because I had left my charger at home, my phone had died. So I couldn't call my parents to pick me up when I reached the bus station. And because of the fog, my parents also couldn't estimate when the bus would actually reach my city. So I was forced to walk back alone at night. At that time, I saw some strangers walking towards me. I felt that their intentions were not right, and I was really worried. At that time, I used my imagination and took out my phone and started talking loudly as if I was on a call. I know that my phone was dead, but they didn't know that. As they came closer, I started saying that I'm just around the corner. If they had approached, I would have moved back. I used this opportunity to run to a nearby store. And once inside, I borrowed a phone from the sales clerk and called my parents to pick me up. The whole time, my heart was beating very loudly. It was a very scary situation. Once I saw my father and mother, I finally took a huge sigh of relief. My father told me that he was really proud of my presence of mind, and a lot of people told me that they wouldn't have been able to think on their feet like I did.
