August 7. “Want to play a word game, Button?”
“But you have not played a single game of scrabble with me yet.”
“We’ll do that tomorrow. In the meantime, let’s play this word game. I assure you you’ll get hooked on to this one too.”
“What is this word game called?”
“It doesn’t have a name as such. We’ll stick to names of places today. When I name a place, you’ll name another place beginning with the last alphabet of my word. If I say America, you’ll name a place beginning with the alphabet a.”
“Australia.” B
“Great. I’ll say Austria.”
“I’ll say Auckland.” B
“Denmark.”
“Kingston.” B
“You’re good. Nigeria.”
“Africa.” B
“Antwerp.”
“Pennsylvania.” B
“Assam.”
“Midnapore.” B
“England.”
“Delhi.” B
“Ireland.”
“Dombivli.” B
“Dinner is served. Want to continue later. Or shall we play some other day with names of animals and birds instead.”
“Some other time but I liked the game.”
“I told you so.”
