Magical Wand! .

- Nirjala Amitkumar Avle

It was a beautiful morning. Birds were chirping cheerfully on the trees.

“Golu… Golu! Your friends are here! Hurry up—they’ve been waiting for you for half an hour!” called Golu’s mother.

“Coming, Mumma!” Golu shouted back as he quickly got ready.

Golu had two best friends—Sonu and Monu.

“Hi Sonu! Hi Monu! So, what are we playing today?” asked Golu excitedly.

“Today, we’re going to play Treasure Hunt!” Sonu replied with a sparkle in his eyes.

“Wow! That sounds so adventurous!” said Golu.

Just then, his mother reminded him,

“Golu! First, finish your breakfast!”

“Okaay, Mumma!” he replied.

After a quick breakfast, the three friends ran outside to begin their game.

“Let me explain how we play this amazing game,” said Sonu.

“I’ll give you a chit with a riddle. Solve it to find a clue that leads to the next chit.”

“Okay!!” shouted both Monu and Golu together.

“Here’s your first chit,” said Sonu, handing it to them.

First Riddle:

I am green and brown in colour,

Birds build nests on me,

And animals climb on me.

What am I?

“I know the answer! It’s a tree,” said Monu happily.

“Correct!” said Sonu. “Now go find the second chit.”

“I found it! It’s up here on the tree!” Golu shouted, striking a funny dance pose.

“Well done! You’re fast!” laughed Sonu.

One by one, they found five chits. The three friends were having a great time, laughing and solving riddles.

Finally, the sixth chit was buried under the sand near an old, abandoned house.

Monu solved the riddle, and Golu ran towards the house to find the last chit.

While digging, Golu stumbled upon something unusual—it was a wand!

“Look what I found! It looks like a magical wand!“ he exclaimed.

“Come on, that can’t be true,” said Monu, raising an eyebrow.

“It is! Just watch. I’ll show you some magic,” Golu said, pretending to be a magician.

“Did you find the last chit yet?” Sonu asked, still focused on the game.

“Oh Magical Wand… I wish for different, delicious dishes!” Golu announced dramatically.

Within minutes, plates of delicious food appeared before them! The friends stared in amazement—surprised and thrilled.

Monu grabbed the wand.

“Hey Magical Wand, I want beautiful dresses for myself!” she said. Instantly, pretty dresses appeared.

Sonu couldn’t wait.

“Magical Wand, bring me the best video games!”

And just like that, they appeared too!

The three friends were overjoyed. They laughed, played, and couldn’t believe their luck.

Tring… Tring…!

Suddenly, an alarm clock buzzed.

A voice came from the kitchen,

“Golu! Wake up! It’s 8 o’clock!”

Golu opened his eyes. It was his mother waking him up.

He sat up and smiled, thinking,

“Oh! So… it was all just a dream.”

He got ready quickly and ran to the kitchen for breakfast.

Later that day, Golu told Sonu and Monu all about his magical wand dream.

But then came the biggest surprise…

All three of them had the exact same dream!

Moral

Sometimes, even dreams can bring friends closer. And who knows—maybe a little magic lives in friendship itself!
