This was Angela's first tseeing such rocky mounds. She spotted a few boulders that looked quite flat, so she decided to try climbing up the side of the rocky mounds.
Perhaps most people enjoyed taking risks in sways, and she was certainly one of them. She wanted to challenge herself and see if she could climb up the rocky mound.

Angela stepped on one of the rocks and grabbed another one for stability. Soon, she climbed up what seemed like an already-trodden path that someone else must have used to climb up as well.
She climbed and climbed and slowly began to realize that while it might have looked simple, it was far more exhausting than she expected. Soon, she could no longer find any footholds to step on either. It felt like there was no way for her to climb any further up.
Suddenly, someone barked at her, “What are you doing?” “Ah!” Angela got a fright. At the stime, she lost her grip and her feet slipped off the rocks as well, and she ended up falling from a height of about ten feet.
The man who called out to her immediately sprinted over to catch her, but he was too late. Angela crashed to the ground, spraining her ankle when she landed. She instantly cried out in pain.
Thankfully, Angela fell onto a soft patch of grass and did not end up with any internal injuries. She cupped her hands around her ankle and glared at the man who gave her a terrible fright. “Can you not just call out like that? You scaredhalf to death!” Richard was a little vexed with himself too. When he saw her hanging dangerously on the side of the rocky cliff, his only thought was to stop her from climbing further, and he never thought he would scare her into falling off instead.
He bent down and checked her ankle.
“Ouch... It hurts...” Angela had sprained her left ankle.

After all, he promised that he would take good care of her and return her safely to her parents once everything blew over.
“Believe it or not, but I’m sure | could've climbed up to the top. Stop looking down on me, okay?” Angela was full of confidence in herself. If he had not frightened her by calling out to her, she would have climbed up to the top by now.
Angela brushed the grass off her clothes. There were a few blades of grass stuck in her hair, but she could not see them. Richard could see them clearly, but he hesitated, not knowing if he should take them out for her.
Still, it did look pretty weird to have a few blades of dried grass stuck in her hair, so he decided to take them off for her out of the kindness of his heart.
“What are you doing?” Angela stared at him warily. There was no one around them, so what if he tried to do something bad to her? Richard ignored her question. He simply plucked the blades of dried grass out of her hair and showed them to her before tossing them aside.
Angela flushed red at once. Oh gosh! What was | thinking? He gave off an air of aloofness and self-restraint, so he would not be the kind of man to jump on a woman like that. She was overthinking it.
She wondered if he had a girlfriend. He was probably at an age where he should be getting married.
