Describe Valli’s first bus-ride.
Valli had planned meticulously for her bus journey in advance. So she boarded the bus confidently. She paid her fare and sat on a seat. She stood up to enjoy the picturesque natural beauty out of the window. She did not get down from the bus. She paid for her return journey and came back to her village by the same bus. She enjoyed her first bus-ride.
