"Henry, Henry, where are you, sweetie? Tricia called.
I'm here, mum, in the garden, Henry replied, his voice low and didn't sound like his bubbly self.
She went to the garden and saw him kneeling besides his flower pot.

Henry had been interested in gardening for weeks now, talking about how fun it is, the care, watching your plants grow and evengetting his hands dirty while weeding. He's face always light up with so much joy and excitement when he talks about it.

"Hey, baby, what's wrong?" She asked, putting her hand on his shoulder. Mum look my plant- it looks dead. I don't know what went wrong, i have been taking care of it all along.

"Hey ,baby, it's not quite dead yet, honey, she said reassuring him. it's just been infected with insects. Withth more care and insecticide it will look healthy and good again.

"Is this why you look gloomy?" Come, she said, hugging him. It's okay, things like this happen. The interesting part is you learn from it and know better ways to care for your plants.

"Let's go have some dessert, then" she said. Let's recharge your energy and bring you back to your happy self, then we will go and get the right treatment for your plant, she said as the walked back into the house.
