Story part 5

 

The next day, Chintu went to the passport office to inquire about the process. There was a long queue outside. When his turn came, he asked, "I need a passport."

The officer sitting behind the counter said, "You're a mouse. We don't issue passports or visas to mice."

Poor Raju was heartbroken when he heard this.

"How can I travel without a passport and visa?" Raju thought to himself. Since the passport office was nearby a temple, he went there. Feeling thirsty, he looked around and found a vessel with water. After quenching his thirst, he fell asleep, dazed.

But what happened after that, Raju had no idea. When he woke up, he realized that his body had changed.

Raju's ears grew bigger, and to his surprise, wings sprouted out. As he flapped his wings and ears, a strange sound filled the air. Delighted, Raju continued to flap his ears and wings. Suddenly, he felt himself lifting off the ground. He was flying! Raju was thrilled and amazed.

At first, he flew from one tree to another. But soon, he gained confidence and flew higher and higher. His excitement soared as he flew faster and stronger. People on the ground looked up in wonder, watching the mouse fly like a bird. Children cheered and clapped, while adults exclaimed, "What a wonder! A mouse flying like a bird!"

The astonishing news of the flying mouse spread like wildfire, and media personnel rushed to the scene. News channels began broadcasting stories about the "Flying Mouse." Some TV channels even hosted debate shows on the topic. In no time, the news of the mouse flying became a sensational headline.
