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.’

  5. I.B., you've described a younger siblings' worst nightmare. I'm glad Rinku is standing strong on telling the truth. I wonder what other secrets Pinti expects Rinku to keep :(

  8. Dear Arora,
    Older brothers are good at creating stories to scare their youngers. My brother had a talent for it. Nicely done.
    Shalom,
