Sharing a Sparkler
Maya: "Kabir, your hand is shaking. Are you scared of the sparkler?"
Kabir: "No! It just feels funny, like my fingers are buzzing."
Maya: "When I held it, my hand tingled, like tiny pins but not hurting."
Kabir: "Yeah, like it tingled and made my skin jump a little."
Maya: "You can hold it with me. We’ll share one sparkler."
Kabir: "Okay, but you don’t grab all the blue rangoli this time."
Maya: "Deal. One sparkler, half the blue. My tummy is tingling now."
Kabir: "Mine too, but it’s a happy tingle, not a scared one."
Maya: "Let’s light it together. If it tingles too much, we drop it."
Kabir: "Ready. One, two, three… my hand tingled again, but I like it."
