Chapter 6 - wishing star

After dinner Sara was sitting with Ava teaching her rhymes.

Rio said "aunt, I want to eat ice cream, see there is a shop nearby, come let us go there" he pulled her hand.

Mary scolded Rio that it was too late and dark.

Sara told that grandma was right and she will take next week.

But Rio was so stubborn that he gave her car keys and hold Avas hand.

As there is no other option Sara convinced her mom as it is easy for her.

There was a ice-cream parlour near by where they can sit there and enjoy the 

After giving ice-cream to the kids, Sara called her mom as it was already late so she called her and informed her that she will be in an hour and not to worry.

Mary called Sara as it was late and was about to talk but she disconnected the call.

Sara was enjoying the cool breeze and the calm environment.

After sometime Rio shouted "Aunt, see there a star is falling"

Then Sara laughed at him "Rio, we call shooting stars. It is rare we see it. If you wish anything your wish come trues''

Then Rio closed Sara's eyes with one hand and he closed his eyes "Aunt, now we both wish for a thing" he started counting..one..two..three..now 

Sara was astonished with his behaviour. She closed her eyes and thought 'I want to give my kids Rio and Ava the best life. I have to fulfill all wishes and give them a comfortable and luxurious life. For them I will do anything else, I work hard for them" she opened her eyes and Rio was looking at her.

Rio asked "Aunt, what wish do you ask?"

"Dear, we should not reveal our wish," Sara replied.

"Then aunt, will our wish come true?" Rio was a curious child so his doubts never ended.

"Dear, there is a belief that if we wish to see a shooting star our wish will be fulfilled as it is said that it is good luck and maybe there will be a turning point in your life" Sara explained him.

Rio asked "Aunt what is meant by turning point?"

Sara replied "Your doubts never end as your grandma was worried and waiting for us we have to go now"

Sara was driving the car as there was a sudden snowfall. She was driving the car slowly.

Ava was sleeping as she was tired.
