Back at Aahana’s house, they began to work. The tin foil was tricky to fold just right. Aahana struggled at first. “Oh no! It won’t stay!” she sighed. Ravi smiled, “Let’s try again together!” They took a deep breath and began again.

After several tries, the feather began to take shape. Aahana felt happy but also a little impatient. “Why is this taking so long?” she asked. Maya reminded her, “It's okay; patience is important when making something special.” Aahana nodded, feeling calmer.
