Once there was a girl named Rina. She was an independent woman. She had her own office where many people used to work there. But among them there was an office boy called Raj. He had a really bad situation in his home so he had to leave his study and work instead. He wanted to study but he could not. So for the sake of earning he used to work as an office helper boy. Rina was really rude to him. She never treated him well and always took him only as a helper boy. After working nearly for 1 year he had saved some money and his situation was getting better so he had decided to study again. One day while he was using the computer at his office, Rina arrived  and when she saw Raj using the office computer she rudely asked him why he was using it and began demeaning him. He explained to her that he wanted to study and he was checking the online forms of the exam. After hearing that she yelled at him and said that he was just an office helper boy and he did not need to study, he just needed to focus on the office’s work. After hearing that he was sad but still he wanted to study. The same day he went to shops and bought many course books. During the day he used to work in the office and at night he used to study. After a month one day he asked Rina, money for admission but she did not give him the money but instead scolded him. He was very upset but luckily, his savings were enough. After a month it was result day, Rina got a call from Raj saying that he did not get any admission in any of the universities. Rina was very sad to hear it. Then Raj entered with the box of sweets and Rina was rude and asked him why he had the box of sweets with him. He replied that he had gotten the admission in one of the universities of Delhi and he was there to give her sweets. Rina was really surprised and she asked how he managed to study. Raj said he worked during the day and studied at night. Rina was ashamed of her behaviour because she never treated him properly. At last she apologized and also said that she was proud of him. After hearing that, Raj was very happy.
