Chapter:-2, The Thief's Story

By:- Ruskin Bond

 This story is written by Ruskin Bond. It is the story of a thief and a kind hearted person.  Anil, a young man of 25, was a writer. He earned his living by writing books or articles for various magazines. He was a large-hearted and simple man. While Hari Singh was a thief who was expert in the art of stealing. Once, when Anil was watching a wrestling match, He met with him and told his  name Hari Singh, approached him and expressed his desire to serve him. He said that he would cook for him. Anil believed him and gave him the job. Hari Singh was an expert thief and used to change his name and place every month to avoid the police and his old employers. He used to make a rupee daily while buying supplies for him.He works as a cook for Anil

One day, Anil got a bundle of notes. He kept them under his mattress. At night  Hari singh 

 got a chance to steal Anil’s money, from under the mattress. He took the money and ran away to go to another place by train. But He could not do so because of Anil's kindness. He did not want to cheat a large-hearted and simple man like Anil, who had trusted him. He also wanted Anil to teach him to write simple sentences. He immediately came back to Anil’s house and placed the money as it was. Anil Knew everything. But he accepted him again.

Next morning, Anil gave him fifty rupees and told him that he would pay him regularly. Thus the story gives a lesson that trust, goodness and kindness can change any person.

इस कहानी को रस्किन बॉन्ड ने लिखा है। यह एक चोर और एक दयालु इंसान की कहानी है। अनिल 25 साल का  है और एक लेखक है। वह विभिन्न पत्रिकाओं के लिए किताबें या लेख लिखकर अपना जीवन यापन किया करता था । वे बड़े दिल वाले और सीधे-सादे इंसान थे। जबकि हरि सिंह एक चोर था जो चोरी करने में माहिर था। एक बार, जब अनिल कुश्ती का मैच देख रहे था, तो वे उनसे मिले और अपना नाम हरि सिंह बताया, उनके पास पहुंचा और उनके यहाँ काम करने की इच्छा व्यक्त की। उसने कहा कि वह उसके लिए खाना बनाएगा। अनिल ने उस पर विश्वास किया और उसे काम पर रख लिया । हरि सिंह एक कुशल चोर था। पुलिस और अपने पुराने मालिकों से बचने के लिए हर महीने अपना नाम और स्थान बदल लेता था। वह अनिल लिए सामान खरीदा करता था और  रोज एक रुपया बनाया करता  था। वह अनिल के लिए रसोइया का काम करता था।

एक दिन अनिल को नोटों का बंडल मिला। उसने उन्हें अपने गद्दे के नीचे रखा। रात में हरि सिंह गद्दे के नीचे से अनिल के पैसे चुराने का मौका मिला। वह पैसे लेकर ट्रेन से दूसरी जगह जाने के लिए भाग गया। लेकिन अनिल की दया रूपी व्यवहार ने उसे ऐसा नहीं करने दिया। वह अनिल जैसे बड़े दिल वाले और सीधे-सादे आदमी को धोखा नहीं देना चाहता था, जिसने उस पर भरोसा किया था। वह यह भी चाहता था कि अनिल उसे सरल और  लिखना पढना सिखाए। वह तुरंत अनिल के घर वापस आया और पैसे यथावत रख दिए। अनिल सब कुछ जानता था। लेकिन उन्होंने उसे फिर से स्वीकार कर लिया।

अगली सुबह, अनिल ने उसे पचास रुपये दिए और कहा कि वह उसे नियमित रूप से भुगतान करेगा। इस प्रकार कहानी एक सबक देती है कि विश्वास, अच्छाई और दया किसी भी व्यक्ति को बदल सकती है।
