Ellora ran along the sandy beach, feeling the warm sun on her face. She saw seagulls flying overhead and listened to the sound of waves crashing. The beach was filled with colorful umbrellas and children building sandcastles.
Excited to explore, Ellora decided to walk closer to the water. As she stepped forward, she felt her feet sinking into the sand. The more she tried to move, the deeper she sunk. Soon, she was buried up to her knees and couldn't move.
At first, Ellora giggled, thinking it was a fun game. But as time passed, she started to feel scared. She looked around for help, but everyone seemed too busy enjoying the beach. Tears welled up in her eyes as she realized she was stuck.
Just as the fear started to take over, Ellora heard her mom's familiar voice calling her name. She turned her head towards the sound and saw her mom smiling at her from a distance. Relieved, she called out for help.
Mom rushed towards Ellora and quickly dug her out of the sand. Ellora hugged her tightly, feeling safe and loved. They walked back to their spot on the beach, hand in hand.
As they sat down, Ellora realized it was all just a dream. She looked around and saw the beach exactly as she had seen in her dream - the seagulls, the colorful umbrellas, and the sound of waves. She felt grateful to be awake and safe, ready for a delicious breakfast.
