Answer:
A Bus Journey
It was a long wait for the bus. I wanted to travel to my home town. It was festival season. Many people were at the bus stand. Everybody at the bus stand was impatiently waiting for the bus.
After a long wait the bus arrived. Every person charged towards it even before it had stopped. The bus conductor had a great difficulty in guiding the driver to the parking slot.
People were trying to push others to get into the bus. Kids started wailing at their highest pitch. I could not tolerate the difficulty being faced by ladies and kids. I requested people to allow ladies and kids to enter the bus first. Thankfully people understood my request. I was the last to get into the bus. Many people were already standing. The bus started moving.
Suddenly I felt a hand at my hip pocket. Somebody was trying to pick my pocket. With a jerk I turned around and caught the hand of the person. I called the conductor and narrated the incident to him. The person accepted his guilt. Conductor asked him to get down at the next stop. I thanked myself for being vigilant.
Moral: Being vigilant is a necessity.

Then we started walking in the fair. All along I was tightly holding hand of my father. I noticed a parrot dancing to the tune of a flute. It was so fascinating. I kept looking at it even after we had crossed that particular shop. I had stopped at one place while my father had moved ahead.
After a minute I realised that I was alone. My father was not with me. I started crying and shouted for my father. An elderly person asked my name and my father’s name. He asked me address of my home. I so afraid that I could not answer anything. I kept crying.
He called a policeman. They took me to a raised platform. Through mike they announced that a child had lost its way. His parents should come to the place immediately.
