They quickly took the two mangoes from the ground and put it in their pockets

Then they climbed on their bicycles and rode away from there

23

Since then Maya and Varun never ever threw stones at any

bee-hive

But Maya and Varun loved honey

So whenever they wanted to eat honey they asked their Amma and Appa for it

24

They licked the honey Ate it with bread Drank it with their hot glass of milk

And you know what When Amma brought ripe mangoes they together made some mango-shake

And added some honey to their yummy glass of mango-shake too
