It was Sunday Afternoon. Arunima and Mayank just had their lunch and were sitting on the sofa talking about their office. “Hey Mayank, see,it is cloudy!” said Arunima.”Yes, it is going to rain. “said Mayank.”Ah,I can smell the petrichor—sweet, musky and pleasant!”said Arunima.”It’s a bit sunny too. Let’s go out and spend some time. We might catch a rainbow” said Mayank. They went into the balcony.”Oh my god, what is this? This looks like an open storeroom. What have you piled up in here?”said Arunima.”Sorry Arunima, I didn’t find any other place to put my old files’” said Mayank.
”Who puts their office stuff on the balcony?” asked Arunima.”Sorry Arunima, but I had no choice – My work cupboard ran full and I thought to myself, what good is a balcony anyway? There isn’t much that you can do with it, so why not use it as an alternate storeroom!”said Mayank.”You’re right Mayank, our balcony is a tad bit too dull – But it needn’t be so. All it needs is some creativity, a splash of colour and some clever designing and we’re good to go with a spanky new remodeled balcony” said Arunima. ”Yeah, I can’t wait – Let’s begin right away.”said Mayank.
