A family lived in a small town. The parents lived happily with their son named Ron. He was a jolly little child who loved to read and play.

One day, the school bus came, and Ron was ready to board it. His mother bid him goodbye. The bus left. She also left the house to help her husband in the shop. It was noon. It was raining heavily.

The mother had to return home as Ron will be returning from school shortly. She hurried and reached her home on time. The bus arrived, but she could not spot Ron on it.

She ran anxiously toward the bus driver and asked about her son. The driver did not have a clue. There were around 50 students on the bus.

She asked Ron’s classmates. They said, “We had seen him in the queue, but he was engrossed in making a paper boat. We learned it in our art class.”

Ron Stuck in the Rain

She started crying and called her husband. He immediately closed his shop and came running. They both started looking for their son.

All Ventures Went to Vain

They went to the school and asked every teacher and staff member available to show his photo. Nobody has seen the boy around the school. They started to look in the nearby places. It was still raining cats and dogs.

They were losing hope slowly. It was 6 PM. The sun was already down. They could not find a way and went to the nearest police station and launched a missing report. The police started looking for the boy and told them to go home.

The parents thought the boy might have returned home. They should wait at home while the police do their work.

It was midnight. A very old, sick man passed the house’s main gate. Ron’s mother saw the old man with tears in her eyes. She felt pity and gave him an umbrella. It was a special umbrella her husband gave her as a gift.

The Old Man Happy with the Umbrella

The Miracle

It was 2 AM. They were tense. Suddenly, they heard a knock on the door. She also heard a man coughing. When she opened the door, she could not believe her eyes.

Ron was holding an old man’s hand. It was the same old, sick man whom Ron’s mother gave the umbrella to. Ron explained, “I lost my way home as there was no bus. I was waiting under a shade due to the rain and crying. Suddenly, I recognised your umbrella, mother.”
