उत्तर

My dear friends, we shifted our home from Gandhi Nagar to Ambedkar Nagar last week. My, I mom asked me to buy something in the grocery shop. There was no grocery shop in my street. I just wandered into the third street. After purchasing the items I realized with alarm that It had forgotten the road I had taken to reach the market. When I had wasted half an hour trying to find my way back home. I met my uncle, Dr. Sukumar. He took me back home in just five minutes. I can never forget the helplessness I felt last week.
