A Good Boy
A young boy named Tim finds a wallet filled with money on his way home. As he struggles with the temptation to keep it, he faces a series of obstacles that challenge his honesty. Will Tim choose to do the right thing and return the wallet, or will he keep it and face the consequences?
Tim was walking home from school when he stumbled upon a wallet lying on the sidewalk. He picked it up and peeked inside, finding a huge wad of cash. His heart raced with excitement as he imagined all the things he could buy. But then a pang of guilt hit him. "I really should find who this belongs to," he thought. Was it better to keep the money or do the right thing?
Tim's first thought was to ask his best friend, Jake, for advice. Jake shrugged, " - It's a lot of money, Tim. Maybe it's a sign. You could have so much fun with it!" Tim felt torn between his desire and his conscience. As they walked, a street performer distracted them, and Tim almost forgot about the wallet. " - What should I do, Jake?" Tim asked again, unsure of himself.
Tim decided to take the wallet to the local police station. But when he arrived, it was closed for lunch. " - Ugh, now what?" Tim groaned. He walked home, feeling even more burdened by the wallet. On his way, he passed a toy store and stopped to gaze at the display. The temptation to keep the money grew stronger.
At home, Tim sat on his bed, clutching the wallet. He felt defeated, unable to make the right choice. " - Maybe I should just give up and keep it," he whispered to himself. His mom walked in, noticing his troubled expression. " - Is everything okay, Tim?" she asked gently. But Tim couldn't bring himself to tell her.
That evening, Tim's grandfather came over for dinner. As they ate, Grandpa shared a story about finding a lost item and the joy of returning it. Tim listened, inspired by his grandfather's honesty. " - I know what I have to do," Tim said with newfound determination. He realized that returning the wallet was the right thing, no matter how hard it seemed.
The next day, Tim returned to the police station and handed the wallet to an officer. " - Thank you for being honest, young man," the officer said with a smile. Tim felt a weight lift off his shoulders, and he smiled back, feeling proud of his decision. As he walked home, he realized that being a good boy was worth more than any amount of money.
