Hi!
Explanation:
In this story the author tells about a thief who meets a man named Arun. After meeting him the thief thought him as a wealthy man. He thought of deceiving him. By that the thief thought of working for him. When Arun told him that he can't pay him, by that the thief knew, he was a poor guy. But the thief asked him if he can feed him, again Arun asked that if he can cook , Arun can feed him. The thief replied positively. After that Arun taught the theif how to read and write. The thief knew that Arun was a kind man and a careless too. He didn't took much care of his money. Whenever he got money, he used to spend it luxuriously.
One night when Arun brought a bundle of notes. He carelessly put the money below his pillow. The thief saw it. One that night when Arun was sleeping, the thief thought of the money that Arun brought home. He had the key of the house. He silently tip-toed to Arun's bed. He put his hand beneath the pillow and felt the notes. He thought that Arun will only spend it on his friends. He thought that if he takes the money he will not have to work for him anymore, he will live the fullest. With all these thoughts he ran away with the money. He reached the railway station and thought of going somewhere(cuz really didn't remember the place but you can take it out from the book). He was about to jump in the carriage but something stopped him. He looked at his money and thought about Arun. The train was gone and he was standing in that isolated place. He thought that for how many days he can survived in this money. He thought of Arun. In that whole town he only knew Arun, but he stole Arun's money only. The money only made him an isolated and lonely person. Suddenly rain started, the notes lost their crispyness and became damp. He thought of Arun, the person who learned him how to read and write, but he deceived him also. He thought of returning. He returned to the house. He again tip-toed to Arun's bed and slowly put the notes beneath the pillow. It was for the first time when he was returning something which he had stoled. His hands were trembling. Arun let out a deep sigh. He thought Arun might have woken but he was still sleeping peacefully. His face was bright in the moonlight.
The next day, the thief was still sleeping. When he woke by some kind of sound, he found that Arun had made the coffee. The thief took the coffee. Arun handed him a five ruppees note. It was still wet from yesterday's rain. Arun said that he will pay him daily now. The thief got some hint about the incident. The story ends with Arun saying him that he will teach him how to write his name.
