Chapter 3- Bullying

Chapter 3

"Father, what are you doing?" Mantha said

while looking at work of her father.

"I am creating pavilion of idols for your

first letter reading ceremony "Migara said happily. By looking at pavilion it

was shown that it was created from wood. As well as this wood structure was beautified

with excellent wood carvers. There were several stages created in this pavilion,

especially for place idols and symbols. Also, there were added clothes that were

painted with beautiful artwork and they were placed on the pavilion meticulous

way by creating a situation for viewers that pushed them to take a second look.

"Father, this is so beautiful," Mantha said

with an excited expression.

"Yes, my little girl should get the most

festive first letter reading ceremony, "Migara said with doting eyes.

"Hum, my father is being partial to my

sister, "Sumana said with a fake angry voice.

"So what? Daughters should be pampered. I

am pampering her. Do you have anything to say?" Migara retorted at his son.

"Wuuu…My father has only my sister in his

eyes. I am going to neglect. "Sumana said with a sad voice.

"Don't worry about brother. I will take

care of you" Mantha said to her brother.

"My sister is the only one who remembers

me. I will depend on you" Sumana said with a happy smile.

"Okay, I will take care of you. What is the

gift you are going to give me on the ceremony day?" Mantha asked.

"You girl, why do you so care about these

gifts? You got a beautiful dress made from silk clothes for your birthday. No

one in the village has this kind of dress. Many envy about that. What are you

still not satisfying?" Sumana said in a helpless voice.

"I like gifts. You are giving me gifts.

What's wrong in asking about them beforehand?" Mantha said in a childish voice.

"Indeed. Why are you shouting about what my

baby got or will get? Whatever I want I will give her anyway. You should not

look at those with gloomy eyes and prepare a good gift for your little sister."

Migara said with threatened voice. After hearing this Sumana said "Father, you

are being biased" with baffled look.  After were seeing that face others started to

laugh at him.

"Why are you all laughing at me? Is there

funny to see my father bullying this son?" Sumana said in aggrieved voice.

"No, young master. We are happy about

masters having good time together "Neela said while smiling.

"Okay. Okay. You all can smile at me. I

don't care of you all" Sumana said unconcerned manner.

"It's okay brother. I know my brother loves

me most "Mantha said to Sumana with her sweet voice.

"Okay, brother will give you special gift

to you on the day of ceremony. "Sumana said in happy face.

"You girl! Then what about me? You said

before that I am the person who loves you most "Migara said in aggrieved voice

while looking at Sumana with threatening eyes. Looking at those eyes Sumana was

become somewhat afraid but as being a new cub who doesn't understand what's

afraid looked at her sister with happy expression.

"Oh… my farther is the person who loves me

most most" Mantha answered her father.

"Hum…you girl! You really know how to coax

others" Migara said in helplessly.

"It seems our little miss is very

intelligent "Neela said proud face.

"Indeed. Whose daughter, is she?" Janthu

said as if adding part for phrase of Neela.

"Yes. Indeed…" Migara agreed their words

with smiling face.

"Master Migara…master Migara…master?"

someone was shouted from the outside of house suddenly. All members of house

were wondered and started to find the person who came to them at this time.

"Oh… isn't this, Pandu. Why did you come

here?" Janthu asked from young man who came to Migaras' house.

"Janthu, I came here to inform you that

Grand thero said first letter reading ceremony will hold in next Guruda" Pandu

said to Janthu and hearing that all members in the house were enjoying.

" Janthu, give five Kahaapana to Pandu for

saying  this happy news" Migara said to

Janthu with exited face.

"Yes master" Janthu said and was given

happy money to Pandu.

"Thank you master. Thank you young lady"

Pandu said while taking happy money and left the place after that.

"My little baby, be ready for festival. I

will give you unforgettable day for you" Migara said to Mantha while touching

her head lovely.
