Answers
When she struck the first match, she could see an iron stove which helped her to get warm but when the match went out, the stove too vanished.
When she lit the second match, she could see a large freshly cooked turkey. It too vanished when the match went out.
When she lit the third match, she saw a Christmas tree and she was sitting under it. When she tried to reach, she couldn’t and then she saw star falling, she remembered what her grandmother used to say about it and she wished to see her because she used to be the only soul who used to show love
When she struck the fourth match, she saw her grandmother and in order to keep on seeing her, she lit all the matches and then she could feel her grandmother carrying her to heaven. In the morning, when the passerby saw the girl who had died, they were surprised to see a smile on her face and sad to see to her dead of cold.
