#范文

I was the only child of my parents and they used to provide me with almost all forms of toys but I liked the puzzle on a video game much than any other toys.

It was a video game containing different games including block setting, car race, puzzle and many other video games. Basically, it was a plastic made video game set and was around seven inches by length and four inches in width. The entire body was made of durable plastic and the keys were yellowish. The most favourite game of mine was the jigsaw puzzle. Sometimes I just sit on a chair and do the puzzle all that afternoon. I loved the game as I had a passion in solving problems. The puzzle game at first is pretty annoying and it super hard to be solved, later on when I realized that it’s a way to practice my logic ability, then I changed.

I used to share the game with the other boys of my school who wanted to play. We used to play the games by rotation and had to be careful lest our teachers notice the issue. One of the classmates was caught in red-handed while playing the puzzle during the math class. So, we were highly careful about the fact. Besides, when the battery died, I used to buy batteries with the contribution of the other players who participated the game.

The puzzle was a kind of treasure to me. In the beginning, I did not allow anyone of my family and friends to touch the game piece. I cared for it too much and did not play it fearing imaginary and potential damages. Besides, I used to take out the battery so that nobody could play or do anything with the game in my absence. It was the most valuable thing to me until it broke in an accident. When it slipped from my hand and fell on the ground from the window, I was shocked and rushed to the road to collect it from where it fell.

It was a deep shock for me. However, my father wanted to buy me another similar thing but mother did not allow so fearing I might break again. It was the end of my game ever. But now I bought myself a new one.
