Trapped in a Tree
‘Why did you talk about it to mama? Idiot! Will you never
grow up?’ Pinti shouted at Rinku who was just four years old. Pinti was six
years older but he was already acting like a teenager.
Rinku was a docile kid but today he was by appalled by
Pinti’s outburst.
‘I will tell mama, every time.’ Rinku refused to be cowed
down.
Pinti pushed him towards the old tree in the backyard.
‘Do you see that owl?
I trapped him in the tree trunk. If you do not obey me, I will trap you there
with the owl.’
