उत्तर
I with my brother went on a trip from Tirunelveli to Chennai on a bike. When we were just nearing Chennai, the tire of the bike burst, we did not know what to do. Luckily we managed not to hurt ourselves. We were waiting for someone to help us. Finally, a car came that way. We pleaded with them to help us. They promised to send a mechanic to that place. We waited for nearly two hours. Then the mechanic came and repaired our bike. Later we reached our uncle’s home in Chennai safely.
