Our trip

It was Sunday, and I was going camping with three friends. They were Mateo, Nicolas and Tomas. We had been waiting for that trip for a month and we were very anxious. We went to the bus terminal. We started doing all the paperwork, and then was when the trouble started.
When we were doing the check-in, Mateo realized that he had forgotten his identity card. He phoned his wife but she didn’t reply. So Tomas had to go home to get it as he was the only one who had a car. We waited for him. He lasted at least one hour. The longest hour in our lives. Then, Mateo could do the check in and then we got on the bus.
Once in the camp site, the guide ordered us to start putting up our tent. That night we were going to eat on the beach. When we were walking to the beach, Tomas saw something strange and walked away from the group. We followed him. Nobody noticed.
We strolled into the forest and, honestly, I was very scared. We were very tired, so we decided to stop for ten minutes. At that moment, I realized that Mateo was missing.
We stayed in that place for one hour, maybe he was just delayed. After waiting for some time, we decided to make a plan.
We were going to spread out, all in different directions. We were going to look for Mateo for an hour and then we would return to the same place. I got on my way. As time passed by, I gave up the search. I couldn’t find anything so, I returned. When I arrived at the meeting place, Tomas was there.
We waited for Nicolas for two hours. We started to think that he had also got lost, but we decided to follow the plan. We stayed there.
Suddenly, we heard some weird noises. It was Nicolas, but he wasn’t with Mateo. We became very worried as there were no signs of Mateo. After two hours, we surrendered so we went to the beach. When we were on our way, Nicolas saw a body on the floor. We got nearer, and found out the worst. It was Mateo. He was just sleeping, so we woke him up. Fortunately, he was okay
We waited for him to get better. He had fainted. After he could stand up by himself, we headed back to the beach. There, on the beach, the campers were eating. Very silently, we joined the group, and I realized nobody had noticed we had been missing. We were surprised and sad because of this. Nicholas was the only one who was relaxed. He thought that, as nobody had noticed that we had been missing, then nobody would scold us. He was right about that.
