Never Lied
Ramu, a 10-year-old boy from India, always speaks the truth. His friends often mock him because they believe lying gives them more fun and freedom. But one day, Ramu's honesty saves the lives of his three friends, teaching everyone the value of being honest.
In a small village in India, lived a boy named Ramu. Ramu always spoke the truth, no matter the situation. His friends, Ravi, Sita, and Arjun, often teased him for being so honest. They believed lying made life easier and more fun. One hot summer day, the children decided to explore the dense forest nearby. As they ventured deeper, they lost their way and started to panic.
Ravi suggested they should lie about their whereabouts to avoid getting into trouble. Sita and Arjun agreed, but Ramu refused. He believed that lying would only make things worse. This disagreement caused a delay in their attempt to find a way out. As dusk started to fall, the forest became even more intimidating. The children were scared and tired.
The children tried to find their way back, but every path seemed to lead them deeper into the forest. They encountered a snake, and Ravi suggested lying about their encounter to avoid scaring everyone. Ramu insisted on telling the truth so they could be cautious. This argument made them waste more time. The forest noises became louder, adding to their fear.
Feeling hopeless, the children sat down on a rock, exhausted and scared. Sita began to cry, and Arjun looked defeated. Ravi sighed and said, - Maybe we should just lie and say we were playing near the village. Ramu shook his head firmly. - No, we must tell the truth. A rustling sound nearby made them jump. They felt utterly lost and considered giving up.
Suddenly, they heard a familiar voice calling out to them. It was the village elder who had come looking for them. - Are you all alright? he asked. Ramu quickly explained everything truthfully, including the snake encounter. The elder nodded and said, - Honesty led me to find you. Had you lied, I might have searched in the wrong direction. The children realized the importance of Ramu's honesty.
The elder guided the children safely back to the village. As they walked, Ramu's friends apologized to him. - We should have listened to you, Ravi said. - Your honesty saved us, Sita added. Arjun nodded in agreement. Back in the village, they shared their adventure with their families, emphasizing how Ramu's truthfulness had saved them. From that day on, they all valued honesty above all else.
