Read the passage and answer the questions given below:-
Gullu & Bittu were great friends. Gullu was very popular and everyone loved him while Bittu was the teacher's pet. One day , gullu found a lollipop lying on the teacher's table. He liked the 'saucy red' wrapper and so took it away with him. He loved his lollipop and called it 'rolly' . He didnt feel like eating it so kept admiring 'rolly' when ever he could.
After a few days Gullu kept it on his table to admire & forgot to take it home after school. The teacher who never really liked Gullu, took & gave it to Bittu who though was tempted to eat it, decided against it after he saw 'rolly' without its wrapper'. When Gullu came back to school after a few days he was shocked to see 'rolly' in Bittu's hands. He demanded that Bittu give him back his lollipop but Bittu refused. So Gullu sneaked into Bittu's room, took the lollipo and licked it.
Bittu caught him red-handed with the lollipop in his hand.
"U stole my lollipop??" screamed Bittu
"Its mine!" retorted Gullu.
"NO, its mine; shanky teacher gave it to me!" cried Bittu
"But I already licked & bit it!" said Gullu victoriously
"u licked & bit it??" Bittu could not believe his ears. But then he thought,"if he has already tasted it then why shud I have this one??? My papa can afford a new one of better taste & quality.Let me give it back to Gullu.After all he is my best friend."
So Bittu allowed Gullu to have his 'rolly' pop back and left the place to buy a brand new one -all for himself.
