Kishore stops near a computer class. Through the big glass window he can see the computers with their colourful monitors and studious people busily working on them. He wishes he were in their place - that he could also learn about computers. Everyone says that computers are the future. If you want to get a good job you have to know how to use them. He would love to get a good job like that. Then he would earn enough money to make their house pucca. He could afford to get papa good medical treatment. Then mumma would not have to work in three houses to make ends meet, and Lata didi could continue with her studies. Mumma had told didi that next year she would have to join her at work in two of the houses to earn some more money - no more school for her, though she was so good at her studies. Chhotu was so crazy about cricket --with some money, he could get Chhotu into a cricket coaching class. Then maybe he would become the next Rahul Dravid!
Sameer’s car stops near a cinema hall. They are showing a film about a spaceship which went to the moon. Wow! what an adventure that would be! He would love to be one of those men who went to the moon. An astronaut. He would be famous. He’d have two fancy cars - one red and one silver. He would send mummy and daddy on a trip around the world in one of those beautiful, fancy ships. He would help Ratna didi to start her own hospital. He would buy little Chhoti all the toys she wanted -- the whole shop if she liked! And he would buy himself a huge computer with lots of video games in it. Then he would travel halfway around the world to watch the World Cup matches. He would have tea with his favourite cricketers. He could do whatever he wanted! He must ask daddy to find out where one can go to learn how to be an astronaut. He would use the money that his Dadaji had left for his education, and if that was not enough, daddy could give him the rest!
