Rishi's Adventure
Rishi was waiting for his mother to pick him up from his music
class."How can Mummy be so late today?" Rishi thought
impatiently." Has she forgotten that we are going to the
acrobatics show?"
Just then a car stopped near him. A man learned out of the
window.
"He , Rishi," he called. Rishi had seen the man once or twice
near his music class but he didn't know his name.
"I,m Vikas," said the man , putting out his hand through the
window.
"Your mother couldn't come , so she sent me to pick you up,"
said the man. Rishi was surprised. He had no idea that his
mother knew this man.
"Don't worry, I won't kidnap you," the man laughed.
Rishi smiled faintly, uncomfortable that the man had guessed
what he was thinking.
Rishi shook hands but did not get into the car. He thought to
himself," When Mummy gets held up , she usually asks Aunt
Indu for help , not someone I don't know."
"I'm getting late ," said Vikas, sounding annoyed. "If you don't
come with me, get into the car.
"Mummy has told me never to talk to strangers,"he told
himself,"and this man is a stranger to me."
"Oh, I forgot ! said Vikas. "Your mother sent this chocolate for
you. She thought you might be hungry."
Rishi relaxed, but not because of the chocolate. Aunt Indu had driven up alongside.
" Sorry Vikas...," he begun, but Vikas had sped away. "who
was that man ? asked Aunt Indu, as Rishi hopped into the front
seat.
"Good for you, Rishi!" she said approvingly, when Rishi had
related his story. "Remember that your mother will always
send someone you know to pick you up. She asked me to pick
you up just now because she had to get tickets for the
acrobatics show."
"Thanks, Aunty," said Rishi, smilling happily at the thought of
the treat in store for him.
