Story of 'The Apprentice'


Raghu was looking out for a job. So he went to Haroon, a Blacksmith."Have you ever worked in a Smithy before?" Haroon asked. I better say yes or I won't get a job. Raghu thought. So he said "Er... Yes". Haroon asked another question. "Good! Can you make a hammer?" "Hammer? C...certainly" he replied stammering. "Then make one hammer while I go out to get scrap iron!" Haroon said as he looked around searching for something. Now, what am I going to do? Raghu thought feeling as though he were going to throw up any second. So he decided to take a stroll so he could rest his hair. The he came across something he was waiting to see. "Ah! That hardware store can save the situation!" he said as he came across, indeed a hardware store. He went in and asked for a good quality hammer. "That would be 50 rupees!" the cashier replied handing him a hard cored hammer. Hee-Hee! The job is as good as mine. He thought. And so... "You turned out to be an expert! You are hired." Haroon smiled. Raghu smiled and said Thank You! "Now make fifty more pieces, exactly like this one!" Haroon smiled as his dimples glimmered.
