Question

Develop/Complete a story in your own words and suggest a title.
A polio victim and a strong, but visually challenged man, were friends. They wished to go to pay homage at a place of worship, three kilometres away. Now, continue the story and try to end it with a related moral/proverb.

Answer in Brief

Solution

The Truest Friend 

Rahul, the polio victim, and Lenin, the visually challenged man decided to hire a taxi to reach the place of worship. They had only reached halfway when their taxi broke down. Since it was a quiet road, there was no other vehicle in sight. The driver of the taxi told them that it would take him two hours to get the taxi running again. Rahul started losing hope, but Lenin told his friend that they will reach their destination on time. After waiting for half an hour, they didn’t see a single car pass by. The driver was not even close to fixing the taxi. That’s when Lenin decided that he would get himself and Rahul to the place of worship, no matter what! Lenin helped Rahul out of the cab and carried him on his back. Rahul was surprised by Lenin's actions and told him that he wouldn’t be able to carry him all the way to the place of worship. Lenin promised Rahul that he will safely get him to his destination. He simply asked Rahul to guide him as he could not see. And so, the friends continued their journey and in about an hour, they reached their destination and paid their respects. Rahul could not stop thanking Lenin for being so brave and carrying him all the way. The story is a perfect example of, ‘Where there is a will, there is a way’.
