Reeling your readers - Lesson 4 - Assignment

Tushar looked at his sister in awe. “My goodness, Shimul, you look stunning today!” Anything special, sis?
“Nah, nothing much. Just felt like composing myself a bit.”
“You can definitely open the lock of a man’s heart with that long braid today. Just make sure you choose the right person.”

“Tata, my dear, see you in the evening.” Shimul waved at her twin as she stepped out of the door.


The scorching rays of the summer sun always made her a bit dizzy. Bangladesh was warm for almost 90% of the year, and the summer season could be really hot, especially during a heat wave. Still, Shimul did not enjoy staying at home all throughout the day. Whenever she felt a bit blue, she always remembered her mother’s words:

Shimul was enjoying the view around, despite the unbearable heat. Fruit vendors could be seen everywhere, trying to attract customers towards their juicy products. Certain fruits like mangoes, jackfruits, blackberries, litchis, or melons etc. were only available during summer. Thousands of mouth- watering delicacies could be prepared with the summer fruits.
“Those mangoes look so yummy. I must get some to make a fruit salad on my way home today.” Shimul said to herself.

“There you go, keep them all.”

coins with a happy grin.
