Going shopping for the family

One day Rahuls mom asked Rahul to buy some vegetable from the shop near by, He has never been to shop alone, he was little anxious about going alone. Rahul took his mobile phone, his mom asked him to call once he reaches the shop. Rahul watched for vehicles while crossing the road, reached the shop, called his mom and informed that he reached the shop. He bought 1 kg of potato, onion, tomato each. Shopkeeper asked him to pay Rs.50. Rahul gave Rs.50, came home carefully. Evening he proudly shared with his dad that he bought vegetables from the shop independently.

Shopping

Rahul went to shop to buy a piece of cake. Rahul took Rs.10, he went to shop and enquired about the cost of his fav. strawberry cake. The shopkeeper said, "it cost Rs.7/-" Rahul gave ten rupees and got three rupees as change. He came home shared the cake with his parents during dinner.

Being Safe !

This had happened a long time ago, when Rahul was 10 - he was recollecting this with his mother. Rahuls mom was working in computer, dad gone to office, Rahul heard the bell ring. Rahul was wondering who could it be, went saw throghh the eye hole, "Suprise!!! Dad had come home early.!!!". He felt very happy and opened the door for his Dad. Rahul expressed that he felt very happy when he checked thro the eye hole.

PS: DS asked why cant I open the door for other people? why only for family members? What age can I open the door for others? Will patti (DW's Mom) too tell you not to open the door when no one is there?

Doodling - Bored on Friday

It was a Friday evening and Rahul had just come back from school. As he entered his house, he found his mother was ready to visit a friend and waiting for Rahul to come home. As soon as Rahul entered, his mom pointed him to the table where she had some snacks for him and left. Rahul ate snacks and was alone in the house. He felt bored - he played around in the computer for a while. But it was boring - he switched on the TV to watch a match, but it was raining and the match was canceled... He then took out a paper and started writing what he felt... then he drew or doodled for a while; wrote some poetry (or set of sentences with rhyming words)...
