In a peaceful village lived a young boy named Kavin. He was kind-hearted but very easily influenced by others. His father was a hardworking and honest farmer. One afternoon, while Kavin was playing in the meadows, he met a new boy named Ravi. Ravi seemed exciting and fun, but he had a habit of playing tricks on people and breaking rules.
'Come with me, Kavin!' Ravi whispered one day. 'Let's sneak into the orchard and take some mangoes. No one will ever know!' Kavin felt a knot in his stomach, but wanting to be 'cool' like Ravi, he agreed. Slowly, Kavin's behavior changed. He stopped focusing on his studies and started telling small lies to cover up his mischief. One evening, Kavin was caught by the village elder while trying to play a prank with Ravi. As he sat ashamed in front of his disappointed father, Kavin realized that his friendship with Ravi had led him away from the person he truly wanted to be. He learned that good company lifts you up, while bad company pulls you down.
