When‘ we’ return home late at night,‘ we’ walk very carefully so that the sound of our shoes will not wake the sleeping dogs. These poor dogs, they don’ t have soft beds to sleep on but we can at least let them sleep peacefully, can we not?
One night‘ we’ heard someone running in our alley.‘ We’ knew the man, he weighed around 200 kilos and his footsteps were heavy and loud and then he fell.‘ We’ asked him why he was running and he told‘ us’ he was running to the sweet shop for some jalebis. He explained that he and his friends were playing cards and he lost the game and that he had to feed everyone jalebis so he was running to the shop before it closed. Goodness! How can an inanimate thing such as jalebi have the power to pull a two hundred kilo bundle! It is indeed a wonder!
