His father always guides him to be truthful and keep promises but he never progress.
His father left trusting him.
Once there lived a generous merchant with his son and bedridden wife. He used to trade fur and cotton. His son was a very silly boy who always breaks his promise.
He played and played till dusk.
One day when his father had to go to another town for importing fur and cotton, so he asked his son to look after his bedridden mother and give her medicine at the correct time as he will only return by dusk.
He saw his mother unconscious and he ran to his father and told him everything.
Meanwhile, his son started to play outside and he had almost forgotten about his mother. His mother called him many times but he didn't even hear her.
He then learned that keeping promises is right.
Then when he saw his father coming at a distance he realized that he forgot to give medicines and ran to his mother.
His father called a doctor and she was taken to the hospital. He realized that because of his carelessness his mother's life was in danger.
