The crowd is increasing as the night getting darker. This festival indeed very special to them.
Was it special to Vaani also? Did she ever had a good time?

I felt a soft touch on my index finger. Minnie held it.

I sat on my knees and grab her cheek.

Me: I am sorry... I couldn't talk to you properly...

Minnie: Itzzz okkei... We had a loooot of funnn today...

The excitement on her face is overflowing. I am glad she had fun. Atleast someone is enjoying this trip.

Minnie looked at the letter , she pointed out and said ....

Minnie: What's that?

I smiled.

Me: It's a letter... From a friend.

Minnie: Letter? What's in there??

Me: well..... When you want to say something to someone but .... You can't meet that person... You write it down on a paper.... That is letter.

Minnie: I AM NOT A KID! I know what letter is....

Me: Ouu yes .. i forgot how mature my Minnie is...

I softly pinched her cheek.

Minnie: so you can meet your friend?

Me: N--o... My words hushed inside my throat.

Minnie: Why not?

I wish I had an answer to this.
Why not? Yeah... Why can't I see her ?
Why can't I talk to her like I talk to Minnie.
Ever since I found out about her, I can't see her anymore. Why not?

Minnie: You read the letter?

I shook my head Me: Not yet.

Minnie: What are you waiting for??? Don't you know how to read?

I smiled.
Minnie jumped on the bed and sat there.
Minnie: Give me the letter! I'll read it for you.
She is so adorable that I can't help to pinch her cheeks again.

Minnie: Owww it hurts uncle!!!

I smiled.
Me: I'll read it... But first I have to sleep.

Minnie: Oukhe.. then I am going to Aunt Kriti ... She said she will give me chocolate before sleep.

She jumped out of the bed like a little bunny. And stormed out of my room.

It's been a day I didn't talk to Kriti.
Why should I? It's her fault for not letting me know the truth.
Yes.. I am right on this. I'll not talk to her until she apologize.
