October 2018

Ram, a 12 year old boy, was going to his friend Reetu’s house to take the friend’s diary, as he forgot his diary at school. Reetu’s house is in Muthyala Reddy Nagar. He was in Nagaralu right then. While he was walking down the road, he felt very tired; he didn’t eat his snacks after returning from school. He thought of grabbing a bite first. He went into the bakery across the road and ate an egg puff and continued his walk.

He saw a lorry going very fast. He reasoned that driver was drunk. After a while he saw a girl crying on road. He asked her, “Why are you crying?”

She replied, “I want an ice-cream!” pointing an ice-cream cart.But Ram had spent all the money in the bakery. So he had no money left. Luckily, he saw his friend Reetu chilling on the other side of the road. He called and asked her for some money. He bought an ice-cream for the little girl. She felt very happy. And then Ram and Reetu went to latter’s house. Ram collected Reetu’s diary and returned home.
