One quiet afternoon, he lay fast asleep and fell to dreaming again. Unknown to him, the ship stood offshore from his old farm. In Jon's dream the seasons turned rapidly and as each turned, so did Jon in his bed. Consequently, the cap on his head twisted round and about. It called up a squall from the clear sky that hit the ship without a warning.
The wind had been whirling about the boat tearing the sails and snapping the spars. "Its' his fault," the sailors cried. They shouted in anger and fear and tried to rid the cap off his head.
Well, they were unsuccessful, for it was a fairy cap.

Dear Chanchal,
Date: 15.08. 2021
How are you? It was an amazing incident yesterday. We couldn't even think at all that it could rain. But it was really a Wonderful experience. Both, you and I were completely drenched. We were drenched, our all clothes were wet and still, we were playing and running in the wet field. Though drenching in the rain was really nice. What about you? I'm afraid you didn't have a fever. Thank God, I am fine. Take care of your health. No more today. I am waiting for your letter.
yours friend,
Lalit
