March 18. “What’s with the heat, Button?”

“I don’t have the faintest clue! Today seems hotter than Wednesday when the temperature soared to 41.6 degrees Celsius.”

“What are some of the other things that soar?”

“Birds soar especially those who prey on their catch like the eagle, the hawk.”

“What’s the other inanimate object that soars?”

“What?”

“Think.”

“Give me a clue?”

“In numbers, they add colour to the sky.”

“Don’t know.”

“Come on, Button. Think. The other clue is they are usually made of paper.”

“Tell me.”

“Kites. Paper kites. They add colour to the sky when they soar up there. They are man-made.”

“Paper kites didn’t come to my mind even for a split second. How dumb am I!”
