Mariam is a girl with long, flowing hair. One sunny day, she said, "I want to buy oranges!" She ran outside with excitement. The market is full of colors and sounds. Busy people are chatting and laughing as they walk by.
At the market, the fruit stand is bright and cheerful. Mariam saw many fruits, but her eyes were on the oranges! They were bright orange and round. She smiled and said, "I will buy 15 oranges!"
Mariam approached the friendly fruit seller. He had a big smile and a colorful apron. "Hello, little girl!" he said. "15 oranges? That's a lot!" Mariam nodded happily, "Yes, please!"
The seller began to count the oranges. One, two, three... Mariam counted along, "Four, five, six!" Her excitement grew with each orange. The seller chuckled, "You have a great count!"
"Seven, eight, nine!" Mariam giggled, imagining all the yummy juice. The fruit seller added more oranges, saying, "Ten, eleven, twelve! You're almost there, Mariam!"
Finally, he picked up the last three oranges. "Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen!" Mariam clapped her hands with joy. "Yay! I got them all!"
After paying, Mariam held the bag tightly. The oranges were heavy, but she was very happy. "Thank you!" she said to the seller, who waved goodbye with a grin.
On her way home, she met her friend, Zain. "What do you have, Mariam?" he asked curiously. "I bought 15 oranges!" she declared proudly. Zain's eyes widened, "Wow! That's so many!"
They walked together, laughing and talking. Mariam said, "I can share with you! Want some?" Zain nodded eagerly, "Yes, please! Oranges are my favorite!"
When Mariam got home, her family was waiting. They were so happy to see her with the oranges. Mariam shared her oranges, and everyone smiled. It was a perfect day!
