Varu is generous

'Look. I am going to take 50₹ from my piggy bank. ' said Varun to  Vardhini . 'But what for' she asked. 'Don't you remember  today is our classmate Rahul's birthday. I will  buy  him a gift. 'said Varun.  Did you tell mummy? asked Vardhini  Now I will tell her and go to the shop Will You come with me ?' asked Varun. 'No Varun . I am busy painting . you go and  buy what you like 'answered Vardhini without lifting her head. She had almost finished her painting.  'YeahThis picture looks very nice. You are very good at art ' Appreciating his sister he went to see his mother.Soon he got his mother's  permission and was off to the shop on the Rangan road 

      The gift shop was not yet open and Varun decided to wait before the shop .  He sat on the steps of the shop and started watching the people on the road. All of them seemed to be busy with their work. The jewellery shop nearby was open and one family was busy buying something. On the otherside  the xeroxand stationary had no customers  Before the shop  was a big tree.Under the tree sat a poor lady with her two children.  Her saree was almost torn. and the children were shabbily dressed. The children were hungry and crying for food. She was continuously asking foralms from all the passerbys. Some took pity on her and dropped a rupee or two in her begging bowl  Many didn't take notice of them . 

        Varun again looked at them . The younger one was continuously crying in hunger. He  saw a road side hotel nearby It had a board reading 

             One plate idi. Rs 30

             One plate dosa  Rs 30

              One plate poori Rs40

              One cup of milk/coffee/ tea. Rs20

    Varun quickly decided and went there . He boughta plate of idli and a cup of milk with the money he had  He went near the hungry children and gave them the food.He felt very happy and satisfied.
