A Balloon saves my life


One sunny morning I was walking along the road in a small pathway known as gully in Hindi . Vehicles here and there , dogs , people and shops . On the corner of the gully sat an old man with a long white beard and wearing just a piece of an Orange cloth selling balloons . I walked over to the old man he asked me Maaji can you please buy a balloon from me . I looked at his hand which just had two coins .I took out five coins from my pocket  and handed it over to the man , the coins brought a smile on his face . But still he said Maaji please take back these four coins a balloon is just for one . His generosity made me astonished , I said please accept all these coins . The man was happy and handed me a balloon . I was  happy too! 
I decided to cross the road to the other side . I held the balloon  beside my leg and started to cross the road but as I did so a scooter came and dashed my leg , luckily the balloon burst and I just got a bruise . The man on the scooter fell down and everybody was staring at us . The Old man kind enough to pick us up and placed us on the side of the road .
