Samir Goes Shopping

It was a lazy Sunday afternoon. Samir was getting bored. His wife and children were taking a nap. Samir՚s wife Sakshi was a doctor. They had two daughters Mahira and Mayuri. Samir had a few things to do, like phoning his friend, but decided to go shopping first. He got dressed and left his home. He went to the market near his house.

First, he bought some fruits for his family. They loved mangoes, oranges, and apples. After that he bought a pair of earrings for his wife, and then he went to the stationery shop and bought a beautiful pink pencil box for Mahira. He thought Mahira would like it because it was her favorite color.

‘What should I get for Mayuri?’ he thought. And then he had an idea! He bought a big drawing book and a set of crayons for Mayuri. ‘She loves drawing’ he thought. I՚ll ask her to draw a picture of our dog today.
