Children Push each others

Written by: Muhammad Anwar Andar

First Lane:

Amina is sitting on a small wall. Her friend, Wazhma comes and she wants to push her but the peddler arrives and prevents Wazhma from pushing Amina. Amina says that she wanted to play with her. Peddler says that these kinds of games are sometimes dangerous and then he takes out the magic mirror from his bag.

The children see a child by the stream. Another boy comes and pushes him and he falls into the stream.

Then the peddler turns to the other side of the mirror.

Amina and Wazhma see that the boy's head and hands are plastered. Amina asks the reason. The peddler takes the mirror into the bag and says that when the first boy pushed the second boy into the stream, his head and hand were broken. Wezhma promises that she would never push anyone afterward. The peddler goes to the next lane.

Second lane:

Jamila asks her brother, Jawid that why he is laughing. Jawid replies that he has learned a new joke.

Jamila wants him to tell the joke but Jawid says that when the peddler arrives, he will tell the joke.

Peddler comes and the children welcome him. Jamila says that Jawid has learned a joke. The peddler wants Jawid to tell the joke. Jawid tells the following joke, “A boy said to his friend that his ears are so deaf that even he cannot hear his coughing. His friend suggested he cough loudly.”

The peddler and other children like the joke and when the peddler wants to go to the other lane, the children want their gifts from him.

The peddler says that if each of them finds 3 words that start with "J", he will give him/her a gift.

Jamila says Javed, Jam, and Jackal start with J.

The peddler accepts and wants Jawid to find the 3 words that start with “J”.

Jawid says Jamila, joke, and Japan start with J. The peddler gives a doll to Jamila and a ball to Jawid and he goes to another lane.

Third line:

Yama and Ayesha are repeating the previous part of the story. The peddler and the golden-winged fairy come and tell a new part of the story of the "proud ant".
