A Ride on a Spell (Suffix)

In the city of Delhi, there are cars that have only three wheels. These buggies can take us from place to place.

Sir has a three wheeled car for hire. He takes good care of it, and it helps him earn money for his family. The car is polished, and it works all the time.

They can take us to see all the lovely sights of Delhi. The car likes being part of their trip.

But the car has a dream. He would love to fly, zooming through the clouds and taking a trip he would never forget.

He knows it is as likely as a flying elephant or a train that can sail through the stars.

One very hot day, the traffic was bumper to bumper. A grumpy old lady sat in the back, and she did not like to wait.

Then a boy came through the heavy traffic to sell them some water. 'It is very good water, so cold. I put a spell on it to make your dreams come true,' he promised.

'I could use a spell,' the lady said, and she started to smile. She got water for herself and for Sir.

They drank it right away. Sir and the lady were very thirsty and in their haste, they spilled some water on the seat of the three wheeled car.

At once, the traffic started to move. 'It seems the spell is working already,' said the lady. She did not seem so cranky now.

Just then, the buggy felt his wheels lift off the road. It was true! There really was a spell on the water. His dream of flying was coming to life!

A flock of birds got quite the scare as the car zoomed through the clouds.

Sir looked in the mirror, and he was young again. The lady in the back was young and happy, too.

The streets far below looked so small, and the sights of Delhi seemed like doll houses.

But soon, the lady seemed sad. 'I was on my way to see my daughter and her children,' she said. 'They won't know where I am.'

And Sir grew sad, too. 'I drive the cab, so I can make money for my family. They will miss me,' he said.

The buggy was confused. In the sky, he was not sure where to go. Down on the road, he only had to follow the road and the cars in front of him.

They landed, and the daughter of the lady was waiting. The lady was old again, and so was Sir, but they were both happy. 'It was great to live a dream for a while, but this is where I should be,' she said. Sir and the buggy agreed.
