The Pick Up

A few weeks ago, Summy, Pranav and I drove to the airport to pick up a cousin. I explained to Pranav that we were going to pick up "Atta" (Aunt) at the airport, and then go back home.

He waited patiently and quietly while we found the terminal that she was waiting at, and while she got into the car. On the way back home, he broke his silence and said, "We forgot to pick up Atta.".

"We did pick her up at the airport. She is right here", I pointed. "See?"

"We did not pick her up.", he said. "She got into the car all by herself!"
