Babes : Mamma cycle nahin mil rahi. (Mamma, I can’t find the cycle)
Me : Store room mein hai. (Its in the store room)
Babes : Tum chalo na, wahan andheraa hai. (You come along, its dark there)
Me : To? Jao jaldi se le kar aao. Brave girl. (So? Go get the cycle quickly. Brave girl)
Babes : Nahin, mujhe dar lagata hai. Light jala do pehle. (No, I’m scared. Switch on the light)
Me : (getting up to switch on the light) Ok…
Babes : (shrieking) nahiiiin, mujhe aata hai…main jalaoongi. (Noooo…I know how to switch on the lamp. I’ll do it myself)
(Runs off and fetches a small stool from the store room, the same room where she was scared to go. Climbs the stool to reach the lamp switch and rides out triumphantly on the tri-cycle.)
Me : ?????
