Kids Of These Days

Both Karthik and Ashwini's siblings were studying in the same school. Both were very fond of dancing. Seeing their hobbies, the school teacher added their name along with other children in a dance of cultural program to be held at the annual festival and asked everyone to bring a thousand rupees on the second day. They were happy and rushed home after school hours.

On coming home, both of them started talking to their mother Sanjeevani. She explained to them that look, son, both of you are participating in the dance, it is good, but son, it is very difficult to give thousand rupees for that. We are very poor, we do not have so much money. Ask the father. If he can give, then you guys can participate in the dance.

After Papa's arrival in the evening, the two brothers started speaking with each other. "You speak" to siblings. Sister is speaking to brother "You speak" but neither of them could speak in front of their dad. Seeing this, Yashwant asked Sanjeevani, then she told the whole story. Yashwant told his decision after knowing all the things "No one of you will participate in the dance. Pay attention to the study. That will work, this dance is not any use. After listening they both spoke together" No, we are studying very well, And we will do it in further also but we have to participate in the dance as well. " But Yashwant did not agree. Both of them tried to convince too much. But even if the father did not budge. They both started crying. They both fell asleep while weeping.

Sanjeevnani confessed to him later. On the second day, Yashwant got pity on his children and called them both and gave them a thousand rupees while going to school, both of them went to school with great pleasure.

 Ongoing to class, Karthik came to know that his friend did not pay his money, so he would not participate in the dance. Karthik thought, when he is not participating, I do not take part in dance either. Since he agreed to participate in the dance scene by his friend. In rescues, he met his sister and said that if she wants to participate let her participate he is not going to participate. On hearing him, Ashwini said, "Why are you not participating?" Karthik said, "Because my friend is not participating." Listening to this Ashwini said "Then I will be alone. Papa will not let me participate. So I will also not participate. " Hearing her answer, Karthik said, "Okay, let us cancel our name by speaking to Teacher." After saying that he went to his class.

        

After the father’s arrival at home in the evening and dinner, Karthik returned all the money to his father and said, "Here, father, take back the money. I am not participating in dance ."

Yashwant asked " Why? What happened? Yesterday you were weeping a lot and also said, I will do my studies well. I have to participate in dance. Now, what happened today?"

He bowed his head and said "Papa my friend, is not participating"

 "Why isn't he participating ?" Yashwant asked

"His father did not give him money," Karthik said.

"Why not given? Those people are not poor like us, then every day he comes to school  in the car to leave him ." Yashwant asked

"Don't know Papa," Karthik said.

"Forget him, what happened to you, why are you not participating, why did you cancel your name and your sister's name ? because of him. Did I give money to both you to participate? Why didn't you participate?"

He kept quiet saying nothing.

Yashwant got very angry for not getting an answer from his son.

He took the money from him and said " being a father when I said to you not to participate, you wanted to participate, and now you are not participating just because your friend is not participating how disgusting !  and you canceled your sister's name also along with you.  He could not dare to say anything. He was just silent. Don't be ashamed before Yashwant got very angry and raised his hand for hitting Kartik.   Sanjivani arrives and holds him and tells him " Ok, relax now see both of them are not participating in the dance and also brought back the money. Turn to son" If you do this again, I will put two or four slaps and I The "Listening Nervous Karthik he said Hold ear" Sorry Pappa. Sorry, mom ".
