‘But my friend doesn’t like to play anywhere but the mango garden, she doesn’t like the people much, she says.’ Bubli said.

Mother, Sabita, and grandmother stared at one another, “friend” who was that they wondered?
‘What friend Bubli?’ asked grandma.
‘Why? My friend! She comes to me only, and to no one else!’ Bubli said. 

Like every year Bubli has come to her grandmother’s sprawling country house for her summer holidays. Only this time added to her usual routine of chasing butterflies, climbing trees, and running free and wild in the huge grounds and paddy fields, she had stumbled upon a new friend. An exceptionally tall, quiet and a brooding mysterious friend who changes her holidays, and her life for good. 

Bubli’s gradual change in her personality, followed by her mysterious friend who only prefers to hang about the mango garden, shatters the quiet and predictable lives of those around her.
