Question

One afternoon, my neighbour's children were playing
hide-and-seek in the street just outside the post office
Young Raju, who is only five years old, found the perfect
place to hide. His sister, Reena, had shut her eyes and was
counting up to ten when Raju noticed that the small metal
door of the letter box had been left open. The postman
had just taken all the letters out and had gone into the
post office to see if there were any parcels. Raju dimbed
into the letter box and pulled the door from inside so hard
that it locked. Upon realizing what he had done he became
very frightened and started crying
Meanwhile, Reena was looking for him everywhere.
but could not find him. It was lucky she happened to stop
outside the letter box and hear her brothers cries. She
immediately ran to tell the postman, who hurried out to
unlock the metal door. Raju was now free, but he had
such a frighe that he could not stop crying. The postman.
however, soon found a way of making him laugh again.
He told him that the next time he wanted to enter a letter
box, he should remember to stick a stamp on himself!
