One day I went into the woods. The forest was not far from the city. I went there by car. I decided to spend the night there. I put the tent under a tree. Night has come. I made a fire. This night was very dark and cold. I went to sleep, and suddenly I heard a terrible howl. I looked out of the tent. There was a wolf. I went back. And he began to think of how to escape from it. I tossed a bone. The wolf ran after her. During this time, I ran out and got into his car. I wound up and it went from there.
