          No long later, the traffic became light. So, Ken and Lenny quickly crossed the road and Uncle Peter followed closely behind them. Uncle Peter was so pleased and gratified that he managed to cross the busy road with their help. He then thanked to Ken and Lenny.

          Uncle Peter decided to give each of them a bunch of rambutans as their reward. Ken and Lenny felt so happy and ecstatic with Uncle Peter's offer. They then went off and enjoyed eating the scrumptious rambutans.
