There was a little girl who loved animals. Her dream was to see
dolphins swimming. She loved the aquariums and zoos. Every day when she
walked home she would see a big advertisement of the aquarium in
Singapore. She would watch it and say one day I am coming to you. She
had no means of travelling not even a passport. Once the situation
turned such that she was forced to make a passport. She stood in long
queues and hours of wait and lot of checks. Finally the passport arrived
and she showed it at the required place of administration.
Within a few weeks she discovered she was chosen as an intern in an international company and had to be at her internship organisation away from her home. What country do you think she was being sent to? None other than Singapore! Her joy knew no bounds. She was at her destination even before she knew. She started work and at one of the weekends her colleague asked her if she wanted a little tour. She said a yes and off they went touring Singapore. They hit the aquarium and the girl was ecstatic. It was beautiful. Lots and lots of exotic sea life inside it, complete with a diver. But to her dismay no dolphins at all.
After that they went on to the zoo. Full with lovely animals the zoo was a treat. They next landed in an animal show and to the girl’s delight there were dolphins that were performing in this show. They were swimming and bobbling and screeching. She loved the sight and thanked god. She had tears in her eyes. Her dream came true. Hold on, right after the dolphin show got over, in came some white Beluga whales. This was like a bonus for the girl. More than what she had asked for. The whales performed and even sang, something that she only read in a book.
