Once we had a huge guest at home. It was Lakshmi, a young elephant. It belonged to one of our rich relatives. He wanted us to keep her at our place for a few days. Lakshmi was fond of ripe bananas more than sugar cane. We had plenty of bananas as we had three banana trees in our house, but the ripe bananas were kept in the cellar. Only grandfather could take them out and distribute. I wanted to be friendly with Lakshmi by feeding her with ripe bananas.
