The purple Rabbit

The Story of the Purple Rabbit

Background: Last year around the same time, my niece "Miss. Gabbu Gulhaane" was staying with us and that brat never slept before 12. So here's the story I told her to make her sleep. Her bedroom has that "Glow in Dark" stars on the ceiling, so the story follows the stars..Y the purple rabbit? coz purple is her fav color!

The story:

Me: Ek baar ek purple rabbit hota hai, woh moon pe rehta hai, so woh ek din sochta hai..chalo kahin ghum aaye... isiliye woh pilot ko bulaata hai..aur plane mein baith ke "Saturn" Ghumne jaata hai... 
So, Gabbu batao..Plane kaun chalaata hai?
Gabbu: Pilot.
Me: Rgt, so woh saturn jaata hai, ab batao in sab mein se saturn kaunsa waala hai?
Gabbu: Jisko rings hein.
Me: Rgt, so purple rabbit Saturn pe pahunchta hai and then usko wahaan ek lake dikhaayi deti hain..toh woh sochta hai, ab mein lake ke us side kaise jaun!!! Fir use ek boat dikhti hai aur woh us boat me baith ke lake mein se us side jaane lagta  hai... Toh woh boat mein baith ke ek rhyme gaata hai... Kaunsi Rhyme gaata hai?
Me & Gabbu together: "Row Row Row your boat, gently down the stream, merrily merrily merrily life is but a dream"
Me: Fir, Purple rabbit hop hop karke ek hill ke paas pahunchta hai, wahaan woh dekhta hai ki Jack and Jill Paani bhar rahe hein...achanak Jack ka balance bighadta hai aur woh gir jaata hai..yeh dekh ke Purple rabbit kaunsi rhyme gaata hai?
Gabbu: "Jack and Jill went up the hill, to fetch a pail of water, Jack fell down and broke his crown and Jill came tumbling after"
Me: Rgt! Fir Purple rabbit thoda aur aage jaata hai..toh usko ek wall pe ek egg dikhta hai... toh rabbit sochta hai, usse baat kar lun... Toh woh Rabbit us egg ko bolta hai.."Egg, Egg Tumhaara naam kya hai?" Lekin Rabbit jor se bolta hai na, toh woh egg darr jaata hai and uska balance bighadta hai and woh gir jaata hai... Toh fir Purple rabbit kaunsi Rhyme gaata hai?
Gabbu: Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
             Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
             All the kings men and all the kings horses
            Could not put humpty dumpty together again.
Me: Snoring....
Gabbu: Maimmen (her style of maasi), aage sunao...(Shaking me vigourously)
Me: fir kuch nahi, raat ho jaati hai, aur purple rabbit waapas moon pe chala jaata hai... aur so jaata hai..ab aap bhi so jao...
5 mins of silence... during which I sleep.
Gabbu: Maimmen.... Yeh sabka balance kyun Bigad jaata hai?
