The Right Choice
Rakesh was very excited .It was last day of his examination.His vacation was about to bigin .He walked back home cheerfully.As soon as he reached home he put his in a corner and ran towards his brother,s room. "Rakesh, don't disturb your brother. His exams are not over,"his mother said. Rakesh returned to his room sadly. His brother Mukesh was preparing for the board exams. His parents did not want Mukesh to be disturbed.A little his mother called out, "Rakesh?" " Yes, mother" he answered and rushed to her room. " What is it mother?" he asked curiously. "The table lamp in Mukesh 's room is not working. He needs it.Go and call the electrician," she said. "Mother, can't Mukesh fix it himself? He is so good at it," Rakesh said. " Don't argue Rakesh. Do as you are told," she said sternly. Overheating this conversation, Mukesh came out and said, " Oh! Mother, please let me try. It will not take more than half an hour." "No, don't waste your time. Go and study," she said firmly. Quietly, Mukesh returned no his room but could not concentrate on his studies. He was eager to use his electrical tool kit. Mukesh had selected each tool with utmost care.He kept looking at it. He could not control himself and finally got up to fix the lamp. " Wow! Mukesh you are brilliant. I knew you would be able to do it," exclaimed Rakesh. "Sorry for the trouble Mr. Yadav, the work is already done," said the mother to the electrician. " I am sure Mukesh must have done it. You already have an expert electrician at home," Mr. Yadav said and left with a smile. "Now stop wasting your time, and get back to your studies," mother told Mukesh. On the day of the announcement of results, Mukesh went to school with his parents. Mukesh had topped his class.
Mother : Now it will be easy for you to get admission in a good college.
Mukesh : Mother, I don't want to go to a college. Father, I want to join a course that can help me to take up my hobby as my profession. The next day he want to the Technical Training Institute with his father. There he got admission in the course of his choice.
(A couple of years later...)
Everyone looked cheerful as they walked out of the house. Mukesh had set up a new shop and they were going for its inauguration. At the inaugural ceremony, Mukesh asked Rakesh to come forward and cut the ribbon. Everyone clapped and wished Mukesh good luck.
