Revathy was 10 years old. She loved her Sunday School and was very regular in attending the same. She came from a poor and humble family. She was known for her politeness and civility.
It was Sunday School Annual Day Celebration and all the children were busy dressing up for their dramas and dances. Children were eager for the last item which was distribution of buns for all the students.
The much awaited time had come and the children were jostling and elbowing each other. Teachers held the trays lined with buns and had a hard time controlling the crowd. Each one came forward and first let her eyes run over the tray before finally selecting the biggest one. The trays were getting emptied. Revathy was patiently waiting for her turn.
Finally there were only few students left and a few buns. Except Revathy all others were in a hurry to get their buns because nobody wanted to end up with the small bun that was sitting in the middle of the tray. All done, Revathy stepped up and picked up the small bun and turned back to go. “Sorry Revathy, your bun is small,” said a teacher. “No problem ma’am,” replied Revathy and cheerfully ran away.
Once outside the hall all the children were enjoying their stuffed sweet buns. Revathy too eagerly sank her teeth into the bun. Katak! Her teeth bit something hard. She thought it was a stone and spit it out. Indeed it was a stone — a dazzling diamond set on a beautiful ring!
Revathy ran to the teachers to return the ring. They patted her on the shoulders and said, “We wanted to reward the best student and hid the ring inside the small bun. You behaved so very well and were so patient. You deserve it. Keep it,” they said. Revathy was filled with joy and wonder and thanked God for her fortune.
