She kept the knowledge a secret. She did not tell anyone, not even her mother. There were
only a few days left for the prize distribution. To her great surprise, Revathi found her potted
plants not only taller and healthier than other balsam plants, but that they had started
flowering a few days earlier than the other plants. The flowers were big and brightly coloured
and one of the plants had an unusual kind of flower. The flowers were mauve with white
stripes. That evening she knew, she would definitely get the prize for the best plants. She
went to bed, dreaming of her plants and the new type of flowers. The next day was the all-
important day. She got up in the morning and went straight to the courtyard to see her
plants. Revathi blinked for a few minutes, for there was neither the pot nor the plants. She
looked to see if someone had moved the pot. She searched all over. She asked her mother.
Her mother said she knew nothing either about the pot or the plants. Some of the
neighbours had been to their house the previous afternoon and had remarked at the
beautiful flowers and the healthy - looking plants in the pot. But later, she had been busy
inside the house and had been not to the courtyard.
