The sun was right on top, but there was strong wind blowing, bringing clouds and covering the sky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was sitting near a villa all alone enjoying the weather. Suddenly I saw my best friend Vindya coming on a bike. She said \u201cHai Harsha, Why are you sitting alone hear come, let\u2019s go I will drop near your house\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOh! Today is my Mother\u2019s birthday. I am waiting for a bus to Malleshwaram to buy a gift for&nbsp; her\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vindya :Vow that\u2019s wonderful. Come, come let me also help you in selecting\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I \u201cHow to sit with you. You know I can\u2019t walk or sit on a bike\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vindya \u201cI know all that Harsha. Please wait a moment there is a surprise\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I saw a seat sliding down from the bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vindya \u201ccome crawling, sit on it and hold tightly\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As soon as I sat properly the belt automatically held me tight, the seat began to move up, and within 5 minutes I was with Vindya comfortablely sitting on the bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cushiony seat on which I was sitting and belt made me feel as if I was in car. There was no end to my excitement. I hugged Vindya with tears of happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vindya \u201clet\u2019s go to mantry mall.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Me \u201cok\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cdnimageserver.co.in\/cdn.php?src=https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/52474556875_617c27df0f_o_d.jpg&amp;width=1600&amp;height=1600\" alt=\"\" width=\"587\" height=\"587\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Western Wear Flare Long Gown<\/strong> https:\/\/www.chandamama.com\/index.php?route=product\/product&amp;product_id=42155<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There I selected a brand new maroon sari for mummy and blue chudidhar for sister. I google payed with my mobile. While coming home Vindya wanted a 64 gb pen drive and a wireless mouse. We got them in a nearby shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vindya \u201cI will pay for my things\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I \u201cno, no you are helping me so much. I will pay for you\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I opened my purse, payed money to shopkeeper and returned home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My father opened the gate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vindya brought bike inside and pressed a Butten. The seat moved down, the belt loosened itself and I crawled out of the seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She gave my things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I thanked her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She said \u201chave coffee. I will go home\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I \u201cwhy don\u2019t you join me\u201d. I took her to the dining table, ordered 2 cups of coffee and biscuits<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I called my mother and sister, introduced her, wished my mother and gave her a gift. She was amazed. Soon she went inside and wore the sarry meanwhile sister also wore the beautiful chudidhar. Both of them came, hugged me with tears of happiness and also took a photo with Vindya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suddenly I heard my sister calling \u201cHarsha come-on it\u2019s time for your office\u201d.
