It conveys the deep bond between the two and the delight they find in spending time together.

Explanation:

This excerpt is from Rabindranath Tagore's "The Cabuliwallah". The story centers around Mini, a five-year-old girl, and Cabuliwallah, a peddler from Cabul. Mini, at first frightened by a stranger, soon forms a deep and honest friendly bond with Cabuliwallah. The feeling is mutual, since the peddler sees in Mini his own daughter who is living in Cabul and who he only sees once a year, because of his job.

Although Mini's mother disapproves this friendship because of the unknown background of the peddler (obviously, he's a stranger), the two develop a deep and real connection, truly enjoying the moments they spend having fun together.
