"No papa, please don't open that window",shouted his five year old daughter.
"Why darling..it's suffocating here inside your room."
"No papa, you don't know. That round thing in the sky peeps into my room every night"
"What...oh ho that's moon darling",said dad with a smile!
"Whatever it is...he scares me every night with his different shapes"
"Nobody is scared of him..he come here every night just to take care of my sweet child"
"No..he scares me...how can he care about me?"
"Don't get mad ..OK as you wish",he closed the window and left her room.
Next night when she was closing her window,she saw that he was not there in the sky.She wondered what happened to him.Then for next two days he didn't come there.
She got curious and went to her dad's room to ask about the moon and her dad told,"You have hurt him darling,he used to take care of you and you have misunderstood his love and care.. that's why he is upset with you".
Her innocent little heart felt bad.
She ran to her room near the window, looked at the dark sky, closing her eyes she murmured in her melodious voice ,"I am sorry..I have hurt you..Please come back..and I won't be afraid of you any more!". And soon the clouds hiding him parted away letting moonlight to fall on her. As she opened her eyes he smiled within her twinkling little eyes forever.
