Mr Baldev had lost his only child of 5 years few months back and was recuperating from this immense personal loss. One afternoon, he found a kid (Let's name him Pig) standing at his door and he asked that kid ...what's the matter? The kid with moist eyes told that his father died few months back and his mother has gone away with her boyfriend. He is starving and lonely and nobody is there to take care of him.
Pig's story brought forward the emotions of empathy and sympathy in Baldev and moreover he was of similar age of his dead child. He hugged him, called inside home. It appeared to him as if God has sent him his lost child in another form. He gave him food and clothes. Pig appeared to be tired and exhausted so Baldev asked him to sleep comfortably in his ex-child's room. Pig went and Baldev had to finish some work at market near by so he went out. On his way to market, he went to temple and offered his gratitude. He was happy and weaving his plans of giving Pig best of the world as he would have done for his own kid.
When Baldev returned in the evening, he found the main door open. And what is this.. to his dismay.. Pig was not there. He was a thief instead and had stolen most of the precious items from the house. Further inquiry from neighbors confirmed this fact and his father was very much alive along with his mother. Pig's family was making good business out of gaining sympathies from well to do people.
Baldev was devasted by the broken trust. How can a 5 year old Pig be so manipulative. All his emotions and expressions.. everything was fake??? He didn't file FIR as inspite of all cheating and fraud by Pig... he still considered him like his lost child. Had Pig truthfully asked for all these materials..Baldev himself would have given happily.. Only difference is between TRUTH and LIE .... and offcourse... the wounded inner atmosphere left behind after this cheap stunt by Pig... which will take long time to heal Again!
This is a 35 year old story and PIG was recently given Nobel Prize for his contribution to humanity...
