The Lost Child

The child was very excited as he went to a fair with his parents. He was captivated by the toys in the shops along the way and the sweets on display. He boldly asked, 'I want to go on the roundabout, please, Father, Mother.' However, when he looked for his parents again, they were nowhere to be found. His face twisted with fear, and tears streamed down his cheeks. A man from the crowd heard his cries and picked him up in his arms. He asked the child about his parents and learned that he had lost them. The child cried out, 'I want my mother, I want my father!' The unknown man tried everything to comfort the lost and sobbing child, offering him fun things at the fair, but the child was too overwhelmed with fear to care. He only wanted his parents.

The Unknown Man

The unknown man was a very kind and generous man. In the crowd, he was the only one who came forward to help the lost child. First, he lifted up the lost child in his arms. He asked the child about him and his parents and got to know that he had lost his parents. He tried each and everything to console the lost and sobbing child. He offered every exciting thing in the fair to the child which earlier he wanted to buy. The unknown man is the symbol of humanity who is ready to help the lost child in all aspects.
