Once upon a time, there lived a girl named Mini.
Mini was full of life. Mini stayed in Mumbai. While her grandmother lived in the
village. She missed her a lot. Her grandmother never visited her in Mumbai. She
always asked Mini to come to the town. While Mini liked going to the
village. She wondered what was stopping her grandmother from coming to meet her
in Mumbai. Mini had to wait for six months for a vacation to come. She wished she could introduce her to her friends if her grandmother could come to Mumbai.
Grandmother could make sweet delicacies for her. All the fun she had with her in the village show could be enjoyed here. Alas, grandmother would never come.
But Mini was not the one who would give it up so easily. So, she made a plan.
She asked her granddad the reason that was stopping her grandmother. Granddad
revealed that her grandmother was shy and could not converse in English. She
didn’t want to embarrass Mini in front of her friends. Hence, she refrained
from going to the city. Mini decided to teach grandmother English.
On the following vacation, Mini spoke only in English. Grandmother was initially very embarrassed, but slowly, she started developing
her confidence. Mini was happy to help her grandmother. Mini and her grandmother came to the city together when the vacation was over. Mini’s parents were
surprised to see her.
