In a bustling classroom in Indonesia, young Budi faces a dilemma when he finds a 1000 rupiah bill. As he struggles with honesty, Budi learns the importance of doing the right thing despite obstacles and peer pressure.
Budi was playing in his classroom when he saw something shiny on the floor. It was a 1000 rupiah bill. Budi picked it up and thought about what to do. He knew he should find the owner, but the money could buy him a new toy. Budi's heart raced as he wondered if he should keep it.
Budi decided to ask his friends if they lost any money. As he walked around, his friend Rani said, - Don't worry, Budi. Nobody will miss it. Budi felt torn. He wanted to be honest, but he also liked the idea of keeping the money.
The next day, Mila came to the classroom looking very sad. - Has anyone seen my money? It's 1000 rupiah. Budi felt a pang of guilt. He wanted to speak up, but what if the others laughed at him? He hesitated, unsure of what to do.
Budi sat quietly at his desk, feeling the weight of the money in his pocket. - Maybe I should just keep it, he thought. He felt torn inside, knowing what the right choice was. - It's just so hard, he whispered to himself. Budi almost gave up on telling the truth.
Then, Budi remembered a story his teacher told about honesty. - Being honest is the best choice, his teacher had said. Budi felt a surge of courage. He knew he had to do the right thing. - Mila, I found your money, he finally said.
Mila smiled wide and thanked Budi for his honesty. The other kids cheered, and Budi felt proud. - Thank you, Budi! Mila said happily. Budi realized telling the truth made him feel good inside. He knew he would always try to be honest from now on.
