The Dance Class Dilemma
Anya: "Aarav, why are you hiding behind the sofa? The dance class is starting!"
Aarav: "Everyone will laugh. I don’t know the steps. My legs feel like noodles."
Anya: "Mine too! Look, my feet are going left when Mausi says right."
Mausi: "Both of you, come here. The music is for dancing, not for perfect feet."
Aarav: "But the big kids already know the Ganesh aarti dance. I’m the only silly one."

Aarav: "Fine, I’ll try. But if I fall, I’m blaming my noodle legs."
Anya: "Deal. Come on, learner Aarav. Let’s make those noodles dance."
