Ringchen asked what happened next in the 'Ruhi, Raj & the Bracelet story' ! I was also curious why she had returned the bracelet. I must have asked her more often than she was expecting me to bother so she gave me one of her 'looks' (the knowing, I am the mother of all mothers look) and asked if I wanted her to get the bracelet back ?!
I ironed out the sheet, folded the extra paper and pinned it on her soft board. Hmmmm....
Checkmate !
I said it was her own wish. She insisted she will get it since I seem to like it !

I didn't ask again and it hasn't come back. Yet.
2 days after she returned the bracelet, under the usual pile of paper cutouts, scraps, dried leaves and flowers in her school bag I found a folded bit of thick paper. It had a cute drawing of a little girl in a ninja pose ! Could have been a dance pose. The girl had long black hair. I stared in fascination. She peeped across my shoulder and said " Raj drew it. That's my picture" ! So the story progresses!
