The warm sunlight cast a golden glow on Lavanya's beaming face as she twirled along the sidewalk. Her carefree laughter echoed through the streets, drawing smiles from passersby.
I walked beside her, keeping pace with her energetic strides. Her hand swung freely, occasionally brushing against mine.
As we strolled, the scent of blooming flowers filled the air, matching Lavanya's vibrant spirit.
Shopkeepers and pedestrians couldn't help but stare, captivated by Lavanya's infectious joy.
I watched her, my heart swelling with affection. Being her guardian wasn't just a responsibility; it was a privilege.
She spun around, and I followed suit. My gaze met hers, and I noticed her eyes had caught sight of a hair clip adorned with seashells. She picked it up, admiring it, before carefully placing it back on the shelf.
I knew the reason behind her hesitation - her pocket money was scarce, and she couldn't afford the indulgence.
Lavanya smiled at me and began walking again, her radiant face now tinged with a hint of wistfulness.
I picked up the hairclip and asked the shopkeeper, "How much does it cost?"
"Two hundred rupees," he replied.
I handed over the exact amount, my gaze drifting to Lavanya.
This hairclip isn't extraordinary but she will make it beautifully like her .
I kept the hairclip in my bag and started walking, trying to match Lavanya's pace.
We reached the school, and Lavanya turned to me. "Bye," she said, her smile bright.
