Best Friends Working in a Fruit Orchard in Indian Village

Ek baar ki baat hai, ek chote se gaon mein do dost rehte the—Ram aur Shyam. Ram bahut mehnati tha, jabki Shyam thoda alsi tha lekin uska dil bahut saaf tha. Dono ne milkar ek phal (fruit) ka bagicha lagane ka faisla kiya. Ram ne din-raat khet mein paseena bahaya, mitti khodi aur poudhon ko pani diya. Dusri taraf, Shyam aksar ped ki chaya mein so jata ya doston ke saath gappe marta. Ram use samjhata, "Dost, agar hum abhi mehnat nahi karenge, toh phal kaise milenge?" Shyam bas hans kar taal deta. Ek saal baad, bagiche mein raseele aam aur anar lag gaye. Ram ne apni mehnat se ugaye phalon ko bazaar mein becha aur bahut saara munafa kamaya. Shyam ke hisse ke ped sookh chuke the kyunki usne unka dhyaan nahi rakha tha. Shyam bahut dukhi hua aur rone laga. Ram ne apne dost ka haath thama aur kaha, "Roo mat Shyam, yeh lo tumhara hissa." Ram ne apne kamaye hue paison mein se aadhe Shyam ko de diye. Shyam hairan tha! Usne pucha, "Maine toh kuch nahi kiya, phir tum mujhe yeh kyun de rahe ho?" Ram ne muskurate hue kaha, "Paisa toh phir kamaya ja sakta hai, par tum jaisa dost nahi milta. Lekin yaad rakhna, agle saal hum dono sath milkar mehnat karenge." Shyam ko apni galti ka ehsas hua. Usne Ram se vada kiya ki ab se woh bhi ji-jaan se kaam karega. Us saal ke baad dono ne milkar pure gaon ka sabse bada bagicha banaya.
