A night of spring, The atmosphere filled with shining moonlight somewhat resemblesa sunlit morning. The moonlight seems to be melting down and falling on the greenleaves of the trees. New leaves have adorned the trees with their green cuteness. Thenature beautified itself with floral beauty. There was a green forest far away from abeautiful village. Trees are arranged nicely in rows, two small ponds and a big banyantree. In that forest there used to live two ghosts beside a mediumsized tamarind treein two small mango trees. They were the owners of that two mango trees. Onebelonged to TiTi ghost and the other one to PiPi ghost. They were very obstinate butnot impish. They don’t threaten people like all other ghosts. They gossip all night long,dance, sing song and eat mangoes.Once upon a time they ate Tamarind and found it very sour. And they never ate itagain. The two trees bear mangoes throughout the year, mangoes swinging frombranch to branch, red colored eye-catching mangoes. TiTi and PiPi were best friends.On that night, hanging on the branches of the mango tree, TiTi ghost said to PiPi,”Come, come, sit here. Eat the mangoes of my tree, they are delicious. Take, do eatboth of these”.

– Isn’t it sapid?

–Hmm, very tasty.

“Wanna eat two more?” “Not two! I want three more!” “Okay but careful, don’t eattoo much! Your teeth may get infected. Do you know that eating too much sweetfood causes tooth decay?”

– Um, I know. That afternoon I went out for a walk in Sundarpur, on my way back Imet a cute boy in the field. “The boy’s name?”- Dipu. They were playing a game named ‘Kanamachi’ saying, “Kanamachi bho bho,jake pabi take choo…” While he was laughing, I noticed that he had had not tooth. Iput my hands in the boy’s pocket and saw some packets full of chocolates.Unfortunately, I ate two chocolates from there. And now see, I don’t have two teeth.- TiTi, do you also wanna eat chocolates?

– No, no! I don’t want, eating too much chocolate causes tooth decay. Don’t you see,children have no teeth.Hehehehe…… PiPi and TiTi laughed together.After a long and shivering cold season, the spring festival in the jungle has started.The sweet song of the cuckoos as well as the comfort given by beautiful flowersmade the spring marvelous.New leaves appeared on the empty branches of trees.Trees are wearing a cloak of greeneries. The two ghosts spent the whole nightcelebrating that festival.Moon as well as millions of fireflies lit the night .The farawaystars were shining like pearls on the night sky.The ghosts were returning to their home in the mango tree after the festival beingended and they were both singing,The forest is dressedThe forest is furnishedWith the cloak of greeneryThe leaves are embellished! The flowers are blooming!In a new different shadewhich is conserving the forest from being fade.Stopping his singing TiTi rolled his eyes and said to PiPi, “Look… look… who are theyin our mango trees? Titi and pipi ran towards the mango tree. No no! They flew tothe tree.In rough tone both of the ghosts said, “Who are you? Why have you sat in our tree?

– We are Aliens. I’m Alley. I’m Balley. We live on a planet far away from here. We twoare sisters. We forgot the way, landed on Earth while returning to our planet fromthe Moon. Who are you? Humans?- No, we are ghosts. I am TiTi. Hi, I’m PiPi. We are best friends. Alley and Belleywanted to stay in the mango tree. And then the quarrel began. TiTi and PiPi didn’twant the aliens to stay in their mango trees. Balley sweetly said, “It is not good toquarrel. We have come to your planet due to a danger. We are your guests. You should help us. We can be friends if you want”. TiTi and PiPi looked at each other andthought, “If someone is in danger, we should help him. The humans also help the onewho is in danger. Two days ago, I was a boy helping an old blind man to cross theroad by holding his hand at the junction of Kolatoli Road”. “So, should we help Alleyand Balley?”

Pipi said.- Yes, of course! They are our guests. Let Alley stay in my tree and Balley in your tree.TiTi said, “Do you wanna eat mangoes? Take this. Eat. They are delicious”.- Ahh! How sour!! No!! We don’t wanna eat this. Do you guys have Tamarind? Welove eating them; they’re very sweet and tasty.PiPi gave Alley and Balley a bunch of tamarind.- Wow!
