It was a warm morning in the season of autumn. A poor man was living outside the town and near a little village.As he was poor, he didnt have lots of money to live to the fullest of his life, like the other people of his locality. He was cursed with such poverty-stricken conditions that, for sometimes he were to go to other neighbours for some financial help,because it wasnt possible for him to lead his life in well conditions.

He was in his fifties,so he only had wife who used to live with her in the village cottage.In the early morning he used to go the shop and where he worked as a vendor to lead his little family.He didn’t have any child, still it was hardly possible for him to bear the cost of such living,so he had only option, that was to seek help from others and working overtime in his shop.

When it was the time for the poor man to go to the shop early in the morning, it was his wife, who used to take part in the works of household.Living in rural life was such plain and simple that,all they had to complete their own task and without any mental stress, having the little pleasure from life.Things were get going easily,in the morning,when poor man was absent from the house, it was her wife who took part in her gardening and taking care of the domestic animals they had in their house.

The poor man worked all day long and he had a habit to take food for the lunch with him.In the afternoon, he used to eat fruits like watermelon,banana, and pine-apple to meet his hunger.After completing his daily routined work in the shop,he then got back to his house with some ready cashes in his bag and a hungry mind looking for foods to eat.Each time when he was returning from the market,he used to think for his little wife, who was also passing endless time for his safe arrival.

Time flew on and eve started to fall into the darkness of night. The poor man kept walking and it was nearly half an hour he walked away from his shop. The road he took was very familiar to him and after a certain moment, he went to his home early before the time he expected. When he arrived at home, he saw his wife waiting for him and she already cooked good foods for him,some plain and one special dish she liked to eat.

Seeing the favourite food of mutton chop,he was very happy but at the same time a question quite readily arrived at his head.He wasnt that much rich to buy mutton every month and it was after a few months of his money,that took to buy the dish he liked, so he asked his wife, how she managed to have the item since they didnt have money to buy that.

Her wife smiled a bit and said it wasnt only him who had the money but she pointed to her garden that was beside her home and she said that,she sold half of the garden foods she had in her garden. With the profit,she thought for buying the food her husband wants to eat most.Time went that way and it was the poor man who became very happy to see that, her wife had so much care for her and that took him to realization, that he is not alone and together they are bit short, but a good family.

After that, they had their favourite dish to be eaten and his wife served the food and ate to their hearts content after a long days.After finishing the meal, both of them went to sleep and the next day the poor man waked up very early,as usually according to his regular habit.He prayed the morning prayer and came back to the house after an early morning outing.He was feeling good to see that his life getting changed and thinking about it, he lost his peace back.

After finishing his meal, he started walking for the market and reached early in the morning. When he sat in his box of vendor shop,he began to see less people around him. When the sun began to move and morning fell on quite nicely to the up,he had all his food selling quite well.
Soon,the time flew quickly at his box and as he was busy selling his food items,he couldnt feel that the time passing by fast.

When it was the time for returning to his house,he began to walk slowly towards his home.He just could feel that time flew pretty quickly and without any notice, at the time that he felt it was near about midnight.He was quite alone that time.The time of night was quite spooky and so he decided not to go in a wrong way.

Thinking about the long road that he would have to pass and again,as there were no one around,he certainly began to feel bit afraid. It wasnt his nature,but as it was the remote corner of the village side, and very less people live around there, he began to feel bit panicked.He walked miles after miles,but couldnt see people and not even a shade was visible back that time.

Normally, it used to take less than half an hour to reach home, but he could feel that he walked more than two hours and still there was no sign of people around him nor he could recognise where he came.That was such hard things to believe,suddenly he saw a man coming towards him.The man looked good to him,but as he followed on,he asked for help, if the stranger could help him find his lost route for home.

The stranger agreed to do that and took him toawards a bit different way.The poor man couldnt understand anything where they were going toawrds until they reached in front of a big and dark house.Certainly he felt a big blow in his head and then the poor man lost his sense. After few hours of time passed and he certainly felt that he was inside a big empty room,dark as night and just a small opening outside, that showed the posterior view of a jungle.

He thought there were just a little chance of getting out of the place and his life was at serious danger.So, all he thought of getting out from the dark room,trespassing the guards and the evil people who took and locked him in.He made a plan and that was to wait for the guards to provide him the food. As he used to sell food items, it was his working habit to carry a knife with him.

He was waiting for the time and when he heard the sound of feet shuffling, he became more cautious and for the reason,he took the knife in one hand and untied his wristlock. Then he took a stick and stroke a slightly heavy blow at the guards head,then he fell down.The poor man knew the guard might be carrying the key, and his idea came out true.

By taking the keys at hand,he unlocked the room and taking his bag, ran fast as he could until he saw a bus and got into it.The bus had full of people and so he knew it could be safe for him and it was a right idea again.The bus carried him to his house and seeing husband back,his wife became happy. He told everything to his wife and thanked for praying, he understood it was a great save for the lifetime.
