Lily, Zara, and Anna were sisters. They were on their way back home after a visit to the garden. They were tired and hungry, so the sisters decided to buy something to eat. “But we only have a few rupees left. We must buy something and share it among ourselves,” Lily said.
As they looked around, “I want to eat something sweet,” Lily said. “No, we must have something healthy,” Zara said.
“But I want something to drink because I am so thirsty,” said Anna.
They were confused and could not decide. A fruit seller overheard them and asked them for their names. He then gave them a bunch of grapes and said, “Lily, grapes are very sweet; you will like them. Zara, they are healthy too. And Anna, these grapes are very juicy. They will quench your thirst.”
All the sisters were happy and thanked the fruit seller.
