One day Pihu's Dad got Pihu a new toy. Pihu was very excited to play with the new toy. Daddy, however warned her, “Pihu, you can play only for half an hour. Then you must put it in the drawer and never carry it elsewhere. Remember, you can play with it only at home''

Pihu did as she was asked. But she also wanted to show her new toy to Sonu.

The next morning, she took the toy from the drawer and hid it in her bag. On the way to school, she showed Sonu her new toy. Sonu liked the toy very much. He asked her whether he could keep it in his bag for some time. Pihu told him that he could but only with the promise that he must not take it out in the class since bringing toys to school was not allowed. Sonu promised Pihu that he wouldn't take it out. However, while the teacher was teaching in class, Sonu became very curious and wanted to look at the toy. When the teacher was not looking, Sonu, took out the toy and began to admire it. Suddenly, the teacher turned and saw the toy. She snatched it from Sonu's hand and scolded him. She told him that she would give it to the Principal.

At that moment, Pihu stood up and began to cry. She told the teacher, the entire story. The teacher then told Pihu, “One wrong step can lead to many others. Therefore, one should be wise, in making every decision and should always obey our elders.” Pihu had understood her lesson and promised never to forget it.

Moral: If you keep your promises safe then they will make you safe.
