THE LOST COIN

THE LOST COIN

The sun shone brightly and the skies were clear. The boy had to go out for buying snacks. A little later, he was out of his house and was on his way to buy the snacks, just as he walked a little he had met his friend and both agreed to walk to the shop. They reached the shop and bought the snacks and has the boy paid the money he found that he had only one-rupee coin left with him. As they were about to walk back they saw that the dark clouds had gathered in the skies and it was going to rain at that moment itself and already little drops started falling. They ran to a shelter and reached it, by then it started raining heavily. A little later his friend offered him tea .The boy was still holding the one rupee in his hand with the packets of snacks that he bought. They agreed and had the tea and the snacks. After having the tea, the boy threw the plastic cups and the empty packets and after throwing these, he realizes that he had lost the one-rupee coin which was in his hand.
By this time the skies had cleared and his friend had gone off and then boy began searching on for the one rupee. He could not find it and became worried. It was neither near the cups he threw nor in the empty packets. He saw in his pockets and later he realized that his pockets were torn and thus it may have fallen down on the way. He began searching but could not find it and thus he gave up his search. He then began recalling and then a thought had arised in him that had he eaten it with the snacks as the snacks and the one-rupee coin were in the same hand? He really got scared. As he was returning to his house the weather had become chill and his hands were feeling cold, because of this he had put both his hands in the pockets and as he began putting his hands in the pockets he found that something was tinkling inside one of his pocket. As he took it out he found that
“It was the one rupee coin that he had lost.”
Though all his pockets were torn he found that the rupee was stuck right inside one of his pocket where there was a little material of his pocket left.
