Chapter -1 Annoyed

When I was in grade 4, we had summer vacation as every year ,one day in the afternoon , one of my neighborhood friend lived next two houses called me up to show me her barbie doll, one of her uncle gifted her.

I took the barbie in my hands,  The Barbie was so beautiful, wearing  pink frok with white curly hair, matching pink ribbon, purse & high heels.

I said to my friend Sherry “Your doll is very beautiful”, Let’s play with her and we will let her wear different dresses with the party themes.

She said “No Way”, she is my doll only I will play with her.

I said then why have you showed it to me.

She said “laughably” to made you feel jealous.

I felt so annoyed came back home with an angry face.

Chapter -2 Locked Myself

I entered home with an angry face, My Mom asked me what happened to you I said nothing mom, please leave me alone, “I am not in mood to talk”

 My Mom called me to join Anne, my elder sister and her on lunch table. But i starved of  lunch. Again ! Mom came to asked me what happened then i told mom right now i want a barbie doll. I wanted you to take me to market to buy me a beautiful barbie doll. Mom said we will surely go to market in the evening, It’s so hot outside, Its afternoon darling! I said “no, no” I want it right now.!

Mom said you are becoming so stubborn wait for a while.

I went to my room locked it from inside in madness. I waited for half an hour crying louder to check if mom will melt on my  tears.

I heard Mom shouting soon we will go post-lunch. 

I had no idea after crying for complete half an hour I slept. When I waked up after 2 hours I shocked seeing the view............................................

I observed all sacred I locked myself inside, all knocking the door outside crying “Open up the door” Archie- please “Open Up”and I saw the window on the  right side of my room was opened some climbed, the ladder thrown things to wake me up and come out OK!

I opened the door, My Mom kissed me, hugged me, said “Thank God” you OK!

All my neighbourhood friends, aunts and uncles felt so relaxed seeing me fine.

Mother said I was knocking the door for last one hour, your dad in office, you made me mad today, Anne to said to me Why you did this Siso? we all love you so much, we soon let you buy what you want, why you have so less patience ?

Chapter -3 Sharing

My Mom said to me right now three of us, “Me, Mom and siso”, We were going to market to buy me a barbie doll.

I combed my hair, Anne too and Mom too got ready, we went to the market on the way to toys shop, Mom said to me“I was a bit surprised about your this attitude in life first time. May I ask you one thing how suddenly you felt the desire of buying a barbie for you, you are so big to play with barbies,  my child! May be your dad will laugh a lot hearing what you have done today afternoon ! Sacred us all!

I said Mom you knew “Sherry” shown me her doll I found her so beautiful but when I said let’s play with her she said me its her doll only and she will not allowed me to play with it. That's why I need one for myself.

Mom hugged me & said sharing is a good thing, advised me to share the things with friends said soon sherry will too do the same and you both will enjoy playing the barbies together"
