"I'm going to nail this," Niyati declared, as she rolled up the rug.

"Don't be so confident," cautioned her best friend, Delna. "Those rugs are hard to clean."

"How hard can it be?" Niyati scoffed. "People clean rugs all the time. After that I'm going to do every curtain in the house."

Delna sighed. Then she grinned. She would get some fun out of this, she decided.

"Hey," gasped Niyati. "Help me carry this thing."

"No," Denal said. "If I help you you wouldn't have nailed it yourself."

"Don't be mean."

Giggling, Delna carried one end of the rug and they took it to the bathroom.

"It won't fit in the bucket," Niyati lamented.

"Put it in the tub."

"I'll have to fill the tub first."

She put both 'cold' and 'hot' taps to full, and when the tub was decently filled, put in some detergent.

"Hey," Delna said. "Not detergent, shampoo. You don't do good rugs with detergent."

"You mean I'll have to empty this and fill it again and use good shampoo?"

"You will."

"What a waste. Let's wash something else in this before letting the water out."

"I'll bring Rover."

It wasn't the dog's bath day and he howled as the girls submerged him in the lukewarm water.

"NIYATI!" came a yell.

"What, Pappa?"

"Your Mom gets allergic if there are dog hairs in the tub, as you jolly well know! Go wash Rover in the yard!"

"Yes, Pappa, sorry."

"Get every hair out of the tub and clean it properly."

It took fifteen minutes to hunt down every dog hair. Niyati leaned against the bathroom door.

"Now we wash the rug?" Delna asked innocently.

"Let's just draw the CURTAIN on this endeavour, shall we?"
