Raju and his magical socks!
Raju is a little 9-year-old boy who lives near Jamshedpur. He was turning 10 and was excited about his birthday gift. Like last year, his mother bought him a new gift - she gifted him new socks!
He was happy about the new socks. Last year, he got a compass box. His old socks were worn out, and he wanted something comfier. These new ones were comfy!
But here’s the thing - the socks were magical! Krishna, the God of Love and Compassion, had touched those socks while in human form at the store.
The next day, Raju wore the socks to school. He noticed Manoj looking upset.
“Why are you upset?” Raju asked Manoj.
“I forgot my notebook. I did my homework, but now Anjali Ma’am will punish me,” Manoj replied.
Raju remembered he lent his notes to Manoj yesterday.
“Don’t worry, Manoj. I have your notes. You lent them to me yesterday,” Raju reassured him.
Manoj felt relieved, and Raju was happy he could help his friend.
After school, Raju saw Anjali Ma’am looking stressed outside.
“Ma’am, you seem worried. What’s wrong?” Raju asked.
“I forgot my purse, and my phone is dead. I need to catch the bus, but I have no money for tickets,” Anjali Ma’am explained.
Raju remembered he got an extra bus ticket that morning due to a mistake.
“Today’s my lucky day. I have an extra ticket. Come, I’ll give you a ride,” Raju offered.
He helped Anjali Ma’am safely get on the bus, feeling like his socks were indeed magical.
For the next 20 days, Raju helped others in different ways. He was sure his socks were magical.
But clothes wear out. One day, Raju’s mom noticed a hole in his sock and threw them away.
The next day, Raju couldn’t find his socks.
“Where are my birthday socks?” Raju asked his mom.
“I threw them away. They were worn out. I’ll get you a new pair,” his mom replied.
