Rules of the Game is about a girl, Waverly, who learns to play chess. The author applies the rules of chess to real-life situations because if you want to win, you have to observe and think about what to move or capture. In the story, Waverly is irritated at her mother for always saying: “This is my daughter.” One day, Waverly gets mad, asks her mom why does she have to say that, starts being really offensive, and, finally, runs away and comes home after two hours. Waverly’s mother always said: “The strongest wind [move] cannot be seen.” This phrase describes that a trap or punishment is always lurking around, but you first have to think and observe before you take action.
I think being careful and observant is important because if you decide to go somewhere dangerous, it may cost your life or something similar. Also, if you eat something without asking if you are allergic or what it is, the food may be poisoned or you may have sever allergy reactions.
Additionally, I think being careful around people may also save one a lot of trouble. If one accidentally gets angry or has a bad temper around others, they may get into big trouble.
