The answer has been stated below.

Explanation:

  • In the short story, Father's Help written by R K Narayan, Swami had a light heart even though his hands were smarting after getting his hands caned because Swami wanted to be caned.
  • Swami was a bad liar, he did not want to go to school so he lied to his mother that he have an headache.
  • But when his father asked him the reason for not going to school, he made up story that his teacher, Samuel, beats up the students who come late to the class.
  • Swami told his father that his teacher, Samuel, beats the student till he sees the blood.
  • Swami's father wrote a letter to the headmaster, in the same regard.
  • Since Swami lied, and to prove his truth he instigated his teacher Samuel in his classes so that he beat him up.
  • When Swami was caned by Samuel, he had a light heart because now he had a proof of smarting hand, to show to the headmaster and his father as well.
