The Bridge of the Lost Child - Part 1 - See Summary (Spoilers)
Lily was playing hide and seek with Elías, secretly from the teachers, but in trying to win, Lily had no choice but to push Elías into the river, who ended up disappearing into the river, and the authorities are looking for him... Or maybe not...
One day, at university, I was talking, laughing, and playing with Elías. Elías and I were inseparable; we were very good friends, but we argued a lot. One day, one of the many professors at our university, whose name I can't remember, told us we could go to a university event, which involved going to a camp in the middle of the forest and staying there for three days. This event included an extra grade if you attended, and classes were canceled during the event and the two days immediately following it. Elías and I attended so we could play and chat, because we'd also get an extra grade if we attended, and we both needed it. During the trip, Elías and I were on one of the 11 buses that arrived. The bus was small and uncomfortable, and packed with people who also longed for that extra grade as much as we did. Elías and I were planning what our trip would be like. "What do you think if we play with our cell phones?" Elias said.
"I don't think there's internet in the forest, much less free internet," I said jokingly.
"Oh, sure, so we'll play hide-and-seek to pass the time?" Elias asked.
"Well, I don't know, only if we get bored enough," I replied.
When we arrived at the crowd of people, we were each given a tent, but they weren't free; each one cost $15. But still, I begged my mom to buy me one. She told me that since her job was decent, of course she would buy it for me, but that I should try to buy as much as I could on my own so I could learn how to manage my money, blah blah blah. It doesn't matter, we already have a tent, which, obviously, I shared with Elias. It was spacious and came with a small mattress, barely big enough for one person. Elias also needed a mattress, but each mattress cost $1, which Elias had to pay because neither of us wanted to sleep on the floor.
Day 1
It was a really boring day. They said we were going to start the events tomorrow. We didn't do anything today. Elias and I both wanted and desired internet access, but we didn't buy data before coming. We needed to save money. However, now in the forest, I regret my decision; I long for some internet access.
Day 2
Well, as promised, today we started with the events, which were very generic: karaoke, a dance competition, karaoke again, wrestling, and bingo. However, what made them special was that they gave cash rewards. That's why I participated in each one, but Elias didn't want to; he thought he wouldn't win any. He should have participated anyway. What could be more interesting in the middle of a forest?
Anyway, during the night, I was tired, but Elias was energetic and bored, and couldn't sleep, so he suggested something: a game of hide-and-seek. He said we should do it to tire ourselves out and have fun. However, the university had set a schedule for us, and it was bedtime. They couldn't see us outside, so we had to go far away, so they wouldn't see us. We agreed that Elias would count, so I started running around looking for a hiding place, but I didn't see almost any; all I saw was an oddly located bridge. I hid under it, thinking Elias would just look for trees. But when I saw that he couldn't see me, I decided to just stand on top of the bridge, watching him. When he saw me, he started running toward me, but I had lost him and didn't know where I was, so I didn't notice. When I was crossing the bridge, I saw him. He was going full speed. It was impossible for me to beat him, but I was in the middle of the bridge, so he had to dodge me somehow.
To avoid me, Elias grabbed me and threw me to the ground, but he fell too. Angry, I grabbed him too, got up, and pushed him, but he ended up falling into the river, pleading for help, as the current was carrying him away. I tried to help him, but I couldn't do anything. Elias started screaming at the top of his lungs, and I ran quietly to my tent so I wouldn't be discovered. I was scared of what could happen to Elias and also because I might get scolded.
Day 3
When I woke up and tried to leave, a crowd was outside my tent, asking me if I had done it, if I knew if Elias had left, and many other things. I always denied everything, and then I saw another crowd, even larger, around the river, shouting: "Elias! Where are you?" I asked someone what had happened, and they told me the following:
"Screams were heard in the river. A teacher came to check and saw Elías, further and further away, being carried by the current. When some children woke up, they noticed the teacher was very stressed and panicked, so they asked her what was happening, and she told them. Everyone found out after about 10 minutes."
Hearing this version, I felt so guilty about what I had done, and I started to cry. The person noticed me and asked what was wrong. I replied that I was crying because he was my best friend, although in reality, I was crying because I felt so guilty about what had happened.
Later, an announcement was heard saying that the camping event had been canceled due to an accident, and that the buses would be arriving soon. Everyone left the river to get their things and pack them up to leave. Simply trying to ignore the situation I was in, I searched for all my things, acting confused, so no one would suspect me again.
That's what happened to me, what happened to me yesterday. I was so shocked and wanted to cry. The police are looking for Elías, without finding a single lead. Eventually, I couldn't stand keeping secrets any longer, so I told my friend Marie, who, upon hearing me, was shocked but promised not to say anything.

Vīnu dīnu, universitatē, es runuoju, smējūs i spielieju ar Eliju. Mes ar Eliju bejom naškirami; mes bejom cīši lobi draugi, bet daudz streidējomēs. Vīnu dīnu vīns nu daudzajim profesorim myusu universitatē, kura vuordu es naatguodoju, saceja, ka mes varim braukt iz universitatis pasuokumu, kas ītver braukšonu iz nūmetni meža vydā i tī palikt treis dīnys. Itymā pasuokumā beja īkļauta papyldu atzeime, ka apmeklieji, i nūdarbeibys tyka atcaltys pasuokuma laikā i divejuos dīnuos izreiz piec tuo. Mes ar Eliasu apmeklējom, lai mes varātu spēlētīs i čatuot, partū ka mes ari dabuotu papyldu atzeimi, ka apmeklēsim, i mums obejim tys beja vajadzeigs. Braucīņa laikā mes ar Eliju bejom vīnā nu 11 autobusim, kas īsaroda. Autobuss beja mozs i naārts, i pylns ar cylvākim, kuri ari ilgojās piec tuos papyldu atzeimis tikpat cīši kai mes. Mes ar Eliasu plānuojom, kaids byus myusu braucīņs. — Kū tu dūmoj, ka mes spēlēsim ar sovim mobilajim telefonim? — saceja Eliass.
— Es nauzskotu, ka mežā ir internets, daudz mozōk bezmoksas internets, — es jūceigi saceju.
— Ak, drūši, tik mes spēlēsim slēpšonūs, lai pavadeitu laiku? — vaicuoja Eliass.
— Nu , nazynu , tikai tod , jo myusim pīteikūši garlaiceigi , — es atbiļdēju .
Kod tykom pi cylvāku pulka, mums kotram īdeve telti, bet jī nabeja breivi; kotrs moksoj 15 dolarus. Bet tūmār, es lyudzu mamu, lai nūpierk maņ taidu. Jei maņ saceja, ka, tai kai juos dorbs ir kuorteigs, tod, prūtams, jei tū maņ nūpierks, bet ka maņ juorauga nūpierkt cik varu pošam, lai es varātu īsavuiceit, kai puorvaļdeit sovu naudu, bla bla bla. Nav svareigi, myusim jau ir telts, kuru, skaidrys, es daleju ar Eliasu. Tys beja plašs i atguoja ar mozu matraci, knapi pīteikūši lels vīnam cylvākam. Eliasam ari vajadzēja matraci, bet kotrs matracis moksuoja 1 dolaru, kū Eliasam beja juomoksoj, partū ka nivīns nu myusu nagribēja gulēt iz greidys.
dīna
Tei beja eistyn garlaiceiga dīna. Jī saceja, ka mes reit suoksim pasuokumus. Mes šudiņ nikuo nadarējom. Mes ar Eliasu gon gribējom, gon gribējom interneta pīeju, bet pyrms atbraukšonys datus nanūpierkom. Vajadzēja ītaupeit naudu. Tūmār tagad mežā, es nūžāloju sovu lāmumu; Ilgojūs piec kaida interneta pīeja.
dīna .
Nui, kai sūleits, šudiņ suocem ar pasuokumim, kas beja cīši generiski: karaoke, deju konkurss, otkon karaoke, cīnis, i bingo. Tok tys, kas jūs padareja eipašus, beja tys, ka jī deve naudys atleidzeibu. Deļtuo es kotrā pīsadaleju, bet Eliass nagribēja; jys dūmuoja, ka nivīnu naīgius. Jam vysleidza vajadzēja pīsadaleit. Kas var byut interesantuoks meža vydā?
Kotrā ziņā pa nakti, es beju nūguruse, bet Eliass beja energisks i garlaiceigs, i navarēja gulēt, deļtuo jis īsaceja koč kū: slēpšonuos spēli. Jis saceja, ka vajadzātu tū dareit, lai nūgurdynuotu i byutu jautri. Tūmār augstškola myusim beja nūsacejuse grafiku, i beja gulēšonys laiks. Jī myusus uorā navarēja redzēt, deļ tam beja juoīt tuoli, kab jī myusus naredzētu. Mes nūrunuojom, ka Eliass skaiteis, deļtuo es suoču skrīt apleik meklēt slēptuvis, bet es gondreiž nivīnu naredzieju; vyss, kū es redzieju, beja dīvaini izvītuots tylts. Es zam juo nūsaslēpu, dūmojūt, ka Eliass tikai meklēs kūkus. Bet, kod es īraudzeju, ka jis mani naredz, es nūliemu vīnkuorši stuovēt iz tylta viersa, vāruot jū. Kod jis mani īraudzeja, jis suoce skrīt iz mani, bet es jū beju pazaudējs i nazynuoju, kur asu, partū napamaneju. Kod es guoju puori tyltam, es jū īraudzeju. Jis guoja pylnā uotrumā. Maņ nabeja īspiejams jū nūsist, bet es beju tylta vydā, deļtuo jam beja juoizbāg nu mane koč kai.
Kab nu manis izavaireitu, Eliass mani satvēre i nūmete iz zemis, bet jis ari nūkryta. Dusmeigs, es ari jū satvieru, pīsacieļu i nūspīžu, bet jis beidzūt īkryta upē, lyudzūt paleidzeibu, partū ka straume jū vede prūjom. Es raudzeju jam paleidzēt, bet nikuo navarieju. Eliass suoce klīgt plaušu augšpusē, i es kluseņom skrēju iz sovu telti, kab mani naatkluotu. Es beju nūsabeiduse nu tuo, kas var nūtikt ar Eliasu i ari deļtuo, ka es varātu tikt īkūsts.
dīna
Kod pasamūdu i raudzeju aizīt, uorpus munys telts beja ļaužu pulks, vaicojūt, voi es tū asu izdarejs, voi es zynu, voi Eliass ir aizguojs, i daudzys cytys lītys. 122 Dzeivam dzeivē dzeiva dzeive Es vīnmār vysu nūlīdzu, un tod īraudzeju cytu pyuli, vēļ lelōku, ap upi klīdzūt: "Elias! Kur tu esi?" Vaicuoju kaidam, kas nūtics, i jī maņ pastuosteja tai:
"Upē tyka dzierdāti klīdzīni. Školuotuoja atguoja puorbaudeit i īraudzeja, ka Eliasu, vys tuoļuok i tuoļuok, nas straume. Kod daži bārni pasamūda, jī pamaneja, ka školuotuoja ir cīši stresā i panikā, deļtuo jī vaicuoja jai, kas nūteik, i jei jim pastuosteja. Vysi izzynuoja par 10 minotu."
Dzieržūt itū verseju, es sasajutu tik vaineiga par padareitū, i suoču rauduot. Cylvāks mani pamaneja i vaicuoja, kas nav labi. Es atbiļdieju, ka rauduoju, partū ka jis ir muns lobuokais draugs, koč patīseibā, es rauduoju, partū ka jiutūs tik vaineiga par nūtykušū.
Vāluok tyka dzierdāts paziņuojums, ka kempingu pasuokums ir atcalts avarejis deļ, i ka dreiži īsarass autobusi. Vysi izguoja nu upis, kab dabuotu sovys montys i sakuortuotu, kab aizbrauktu. Vīnkuorši raugūt ignorēt situaceju, kurā beju, es meklieju vysys sovys lītys, uzastojūt apjukuse, lai nivīnam maņ vairs nabyutu aizdūmu.
Tys ir tys, kas ar mani nūtyka, kas ar mani nūtyka vakar. Es beju tik šokā i gribējuos rauduot. Policeja meklej Eliasu, naatrūnūt nivīnu lītu. Gols golā es vairs navarieju izturēt nūslāpumus, deļtuo es tū pastuostieju sovai draudzinei Marijai, kura, mani izdzieržūt, beja šokā, bet sūleja nikuo nasaceit.
