Before Diwakar could think of anything, Aarav started yelling at the security guard to come. Many more children gathered around due to his shouting, everyone felt that there was a big uproar. Seeing such a huge crowd gathered around, many school teachers also came. Amidst all this, Diwakar was terrified to see so many people, and this was also his first day in an unknown school. Somebody even called the Principal Madam, everyone got quiet as soon as she came. Aarav, without any prior knowledge, accused Diwakar of the fact that he had entered this school without admission and accused him of absconding with the money. Aarav did not know that Diwakar had come to this school by giving a scholarship test, due to his arrogance and swagger of money; he insulted Diwakar a lot in front of everyone. When he calmed down, principal ma’am came and she wiped the tears of Diwakar, who was crying. Principal Mam scolded Aarav very loudly, Aarav hardly had any idea of this thing coming rather he was thinking that Diwakar would be kicked out of the school. The principal first asked everyone to applaud for Diwakar, after which she welcomed Diwakar to the school with great respect. She told everyone that Diwakar’s financial situation was not so good but he was a bright student, he had secured second place in the city in the scholarship test. He told about other achievements of Diwakar as well, after listening to all this, Aarav was simply taken aback. Aarav was pondering that after all, a child whom he had donated money to, would study with him in the same school. A little later when things returned to normalcy, Aarav spoke to his teacher, she explained that one should never underestimate anyone. Everyone has potential, so one becomes great by karma/deeds, not by birth.
