Ramu was an over – confident boy. His over – confidence would surely cost him some day but Ramu did not understand that. The next day his final exams were starting. But he did not study for the exam that day and watched television. When his mother said, “Ramu go study”, Ramu said, “But mummy I know everything.” His mother switched off the television. So, Ramu went to his room and started playing video games.
The next day Ramu and the other students took the exam. Ramu who did not study anything did not know the answer for many of the questions. When the exam was over, the teacher checked the papers. The following day, the teacher announced their marks and Ramu got the least. Ramu swore on that day that he would never be over – confident ever again.
