Once upon a time there lived a family. They had only one son named Danish. They lived in a big city, with love and happiness. But one day, their happiness turned into sorrow. When Danish came to the age of six, his father died in a car accident. He and his mother were very sad and cried for him.

After the tragic demise of his father, the mother had to take care of Danish and also look for a job in order to earn money for themselves. His mother became a teacher in a school.

Every morning she woke up early and got herself and Danish ready for school. Danish also went to the school she was teaching in. As the days passed by, Danish grew up to become a fine young man. He studied hard and became a doctor.

He was aware of all the troubles and problems which his mother faced to take care of him, so once he started earning, he made her leave her job and stay at home to rest.

He got a job in big and famous hospital, bought a big house and a luxurious car. Danish credited his success to the hard work of his mother and now it was his turn to take care of her just as she had taken care of him.
