friend to keep sweety for a day and said I would collect her
                     the next day.  I left some carrots for her too  and came home.

                     Since I take care of Sweety, Papa and Amma did not know

                     what I had done.

                         Early morning, after breakfast, Uncle Roshan asked for

                     Sweety. Papa and Amma kept quiet, uncle Roshan looked
                     around.  Nowhere could he find her.  And then he left for
                     Mangaluru.  My Sweety is safe forever.
