Scene 1: The classroom
(The bell rings, and students settle in their seats as Mr. Sharma enters the class.)
Mr. Sharma: Good morning, students!
Students (together): Good morning, sir!
Mr. Sharma: Today, I have a surprise for you. We are going to have a test!
(Students murmur in surprise and fear.)
Ravi (whispering to Rahul): Oh no! I didn’t study at all. What will I do?
Rahul: Same here, Ravi. But Meera must have studied. She always does.
Ravi (grinning): Then we just have to borrow some of her answers!
(Mr. Sharma distributes the test papers and starts monitoring the class.)
(Ravi slowly takes out a small cheat sheet from his pocket and copies answers while
Meera notices him but remains silent.)

Mr. Sharma: Well done, students! Some of you performed exceptionally well. And this
time, we have two toppers—Meera and Ravi!
(Students applaud, while Meera looks confused and Ravi smiles proudly.)
Mr. Sharma (smiling): Ravi, I must say, I am impressed. Would you like to share how
you prepared for the test?
Ravi (hesitating): Umm… well… I just… studied hard, sir!
(Meera looks disappointed but remains silent. Rahul looks guilty.)

Scene 4: The Truth Comes Out
(The next day, the principal enters the classroom with Mr. Sharma.)
Principal Madam: Good morning, students. I need to discuss something important.
Yesterday, we discovered that someone cheated on the test. Ravi, would you like to tell
us the truth?
(Ravi looks nervous and glances at Rahul, who nods encouragingly.)
Ravi (sighs): I… I am sorry, ma’am. I cheated on the test. I didn’t study and used a cheat
sheet.
(The class gasps. Meera looks relieved, and Mr. Sharma smiles gently.)
Principal Madam: Ravi, I appreciate your honesty now, but cheating is unacceptable.
You must always work hard and earn your success.
Mr. Sharma: Exactly! Honesty may seem difficult at times, but it always leads to true
success.
Ravi (nodding): I understand now, sir. I promise never to cheat again.
(The class claps as Ravi learns his lesson.)

Scene 5: The Conclusion
(After class, Ravi approaches Meera.)
Ravi: Meera, I’m really sorry. I should have worked hard instead of taking shortcuts.
Meera (smiling): It’s okay, Ravi. I’m glad you learned your lesson. Let’s prepare for the
next test together!
(Rahul joins them, and they walk off together, ready to study honestly.)

Moral of the Story:
