Tultuli's Birthday

by Jhimli


It was the third of December, and we had a good move towards the gift shop because it our friend's birthday, Tultuli's birthday. We bought some gifts for her, wrapped them up, and went to her house, well dressed. After a few moments, everybody else arrived, all the children -- Sroyona, Srijata, me, my sister Pujarinee, Tatai, Nini, Rudrani, Makhon, Malini, Bapu and everybody -- we sat playing the singing game known as Antakshari, quizzes, and a bit of dancing!

After that, Tultuli led us to the dining table where a cake stood. It was shaped like a book. She cut it and gave a piece to every one of us. Then we enjoyed playing Paper Dance and then sat on the table to have our dinner. Sheela Auntie served our food and we ate with a heavy heart and did not stop until we were full. Then we took our return gifts from Tultuli (nice soup bowls and chocolates), and headed back home.

*Paper Dance is a game you play by folding a piece of paper over and over again, dancing on it until you cannot stay on it anymore!
