Testing The Waters

The news came as a complete shock for her both brothers. Samar remained frozen, disbelief was visible on his face.

Vikram instantly came out of shock and held Sarah's arms. He sounded excited as he asked her, "Really? When did this happen?"

"It's impossible." Samar spoke in disbelief.

Sarah nodded her head. "It's true. Do you remember a young boy came often to visit and play with me?"

Samar furrowed his brows as he tried hard to remember. "Which boy?"

Vikram glanced askew at him. "The one who gave Sarah chocolates and you snatched it from her every time." He said.

Samar clenched his fists. "That was because he was a stranger. How could I let my sister eat chocolate given by a stranger?"

"But you ate it. I saw you put it in your pocket while Sarah kept crying in front of you!" Vikram said.

"No! I threw each of them away! I never once touched or ate dirty things!" Samar shouted.

Sarah and Vikram believed what he said without a doubt and didn't provoke him further.
