In the morning the cubses had their math lesson. They had absolutely no idea someone was spying on them.
"What has happened to your turban, Arunacub?" asked Mum Lioness, a little while later.
"I don't know where it went, Mum Lioness," said Arunacub. Then he quickly changed the subject so Mum Lioness would drop the topic. (He had no clue where it had gotten to). "Let's be elefinks!"
"But it is almost time for Uncle Annamalai's lunch ..." said Mum Lioness.
"He won't mind four elephinks delivering his food," said Tirucub. "It will make a nice change for him. Has he ever had his food brought by four elephants before? I bet not!"
"Oh all right," said Mum Lioness.
"Om Om Om, let us be elefinks," said Omcub.
They packed up Uncle Annamalai's food which they had made a little earlier, and set out.
Uncle Annamalai, looking out his window, was quite startled to see four elephants coming his way, pulling the cart he associated with the cubses.
"It is only us, Uncle!" they called out to him.
"Only who? I did not know I had any elephant nephews!"
"Just us ... Om-elly and Spotty-elly and Aruna-elly and me, Tiru-elly," Tiru explained.
Uncle Annamalai laughed and took all this in his stride. A delicious aroma filled his little hut as the elephants unpacked his lunch.
Afterwards, the elefinks dashed home to collect Mum Lioness.
"We must go to Bhagavan! Let's see if he will tell us any more of the wonderful story of his setting out toward his Father."
On the way they met Balanandaswami and Fluffaswami, who of course wanted to go too.
When they arrived at Bhagavan's feet, they begged him to continue with the story of his journey to Arunachala.
"Bhagavan, please tell us more! What happened after you left the note?" Arunacub coaxed. "What azackly happened next? And please don't leave anything out!"
