Select two details that best support the way that Rupa changes.
"At first she thinks saris are beautiful, but not to be worn every day. By the end of the story, she develops a new love for the sari and all the meaning it holds."
"Your saris are beautiful, Dadima," I say one day. "But don't you get tired of wearing them?"
"I found you Rupa!" Neha says. "My turn to hide." I come out and Neha hides under the pallu.
Neha and I unfold and unfold and unfold some more. "But this is just a lot of cloth," I say, shaking my head.
Dressed in our saris, all three of us stand in front of the mirror. Our eyes twinkle in the mirror like the golden threads in Dadima's wedding pallu.
