Once upon a time there was a young man,
hard-working, kind and trusted by
everyone in his office. He came from a
humble family and every month his small
salary was just enough to survive. But
one month things got worse. His father
fell sick and the medical bills kept
growing. He didn't know what to do. He
asked for help but no one could lend him
enough. And then temptation whispered.
He saw a small amount of company money.
cash that was supposed to be deposited
the next morning. He told himself, "It's
just a loan. I'll return it next week.
No one will ever know." That night, for
the first time in his life, he took
something that wasn't his.
Days passed. He planned to return it
soon, but the week ended, and his
father's condition got worse. The loan
stayed unpaid. Then one afternoon his
boss called a meeting. Some funds were
missing when asked, "Do you know
anything about it?" His heart pounded.
Fear took over honesty. And he said,
"No, sir. I don't know. Just one lie to
cover a mistake made out of
desperation." But that lie changed
everything. A quiet investigation began.
Days later, the truth came out. The
transaction record showed his access
code. He was called to the office, the
same room where everyone once respected
him. Now silence filled the air. His
boss looked at him, not with anger, but disappointment.
