Riya returned home from school angry. Her project was lost, and she was worried about what to tell her teacher. Then, her grandmother gave her tea and asked, “What’s wrong, dear?”
Riya explained everything. Her grandmother gently said, “Anger won’t solve anything. Sometimes, magic words work wonders.” Riya was confused.
Smiling, her grandmother said, “Apologize to your teacher and tell her the truth. ‘I’m sorry’ is a magic word; it can make difficulties easier.”
Riya did exactly that the next day. Her teacher appreciated her honesty and promised to help. Riya was glad she followed her grandmother’s advice.
Moral of the story: Honesty and apologizing are essential. These “magic words” can resolve difficulties.
