My dear Pulkit,

You know that we have a five-day week in our school, i.e., Monday to Friday, Saturday and
Sunday being the weekly off days. So, practically, we are free from Friday evening to Monday
morning.

One of my friends, Anurag had invited me to his farmhouse in a nearby village for the weekend.
I had a very interesting time there. We got up early in the morning and had a stroll among the
green fields of wheat and barley. We enjoyed the cool breeze and pollution free atmosphere. We
had a bath in the running water of the tubewell. We drank buttermilk. We also enjoyed the fresh
juice of sugarcane. We uprooted ear roots and radish, washed them in the water of the tubewell
and ate them to our fill. For lunch, we had 'wag' and cornbread enriched by butter.

Anurag's parents received me warmly and treated me very affectionately. The weekend I feel,
rather passed too soon.

Your loving brother

Pankaj
