A Warm Jumper

Written by: Nasrat Samim

 Ferishta & Salma were sisters and they had been always playing with their cousin, Fahima.

One day, while Salma was alone at home, Fahima came and saw that Salma was crying. Fahima asked the reason. Salma said that Ferishta is very sick and now she is in the hospital. Fahima also became sad. Salma wanted her brother to take them to the hospital to visit Ferishta.

He took them to the hospital but the doctor did not allow them to visit Ferishta because Ferishta was in the recovery room and had a bad health condition.

After some time, a doctor came out of the recovery room and allowed Fahima and Salma to visit Ferishta.

Fahima asked the reason of Ferishta’s illness. said that when last day I was playing in the snow, I put off my gloves and warm jumper and played with snow. A few minutes later, I felt cold and went home. my mother wrapped me in a blanket. Later on, I became very sick and my father took me to the hospital.

Ferishta says that when she gets her health back, she would never play in cold weather again. Her mother said that you could play in cold weather but you should put on warm clothes, scarf, gloves, and socks.
