The Dora Doll Birthday Party

party like this at her home too. Everything was so
wonderful.

Sammy’s mother was also dressed in a Dora costume. She
was getting plates and plates of food for everyone to eat.

There were pastries, muffins, jalebis, gulab jamuns, all
Lavanya’s favourites. The plates and cups had Dora dolls
drawn on them. Pooris, pakodas, and paneer tikkas were
being served on the table. Everyone was having a great
time.

Lavanya wanted more pastries. She had just eaten two, a
pineapple and a strawberry pastry. Now she wanted the
chocolate pastry she saw Himanshu eating. She did not
feel like getting up and asking Sammy’s mother for it. It
was too much of an effort. So, she waited for Sammy’s
mother, but aunty was so busy that she did not hear
Lavanya calling out to her.

Everyone was making a lot of noise, so Lavanya called out
louder. Finally, she shouted at Sammy’s mother, telling
her to give her one more pastry.

Sammy’s mother was not very happy with Lavanya
demanding a pastry. She shoved the pastry on her plate,
irritated. “Eat, eat my child. You look so plump, like you
belong to a very well to do family!” she said, pulling at
Lavanya’s big cheeks.
