It was a fine sunny day and Jason was cycling home after school. He was sweating profusely and he was thirsty. Hence, he parked his bicycle at the recreation park and he found a bench under a big shady tree to sit and rest. "What's that?" Jason uttered while quenching his thirst with a bottle of cold lemon juice. He caught sight of a small red bag on his bench. When he looked around, he did not see anybody in sight. Then he grabbed the red bag to see.

     Out of curiosity, Jason unzipped the bag. "Wow! It's the latest cell phone from America!" He was surprised to discover an expensive mobile phone coated with gold on it. He felt a little bit of timid to take that handphone as he was afraid that the owner of the handphone would come back and claim it. Then he waited at the park but nobody came and searched for the mobile phone. Jason felt relieved and he streamed out with an idea to own that handset.

     Without hesitation, Jason put that red bag in his school bag and cycled away in a hurry. He could not wait to reach home to check the functions of the mobile phone. "Wow! This gadget is really fun man. I've been longing to purchase this kind of handphone many years ago!" Jason was mumbling to himself. Then, he switched on the MP3 function of the handphone and listened to his favourite song Amazing grace, humming the song in his own style. He even checked up other functions installed in the phone. Soon, he pressed into the photo gallery of the cell phone and discovered that phone belonged to a foreigner. Inside his phone, Jason even saw many crucial information stored in it. Then, Jason reacted promptly to ransack the bag and he discovered the owner's address book and some documents.

     He noticed that the owner's passport had also left together in the bag. then, Jason began to feel unease as he had stolen the crucial things of the foreigner. "What I've to do now? Should I return the bag to him or just keep it as a secret forever?" Jason was frustrated and he kept on scratching his head as he felt reluctant to return that elegant cell phone to the owner. However, Jason's guilty conscience soon get the better of him. He realized that it was bad if he kept the mobile phone for himself.

     As he did not know the hotel in which the tourist was staying, he felt that informing the police was the best course of action. "Alright, we'll handle this problem!" the policemen promised Jason. The police were very helpful and in high efficiency. Soon, they managed to locate the man who had lost his red bag.

    Two weeks later, the man was overjoyed when he heard that Jason had found his bag and mobile phone. He gave a tinkle to Jason to praise for Jason's honesty. "Thank you very much Jason!" the tourist thanked Jason. Jason said to the tourist that it's his responsibility to return things that belong to the owner.

     Then, at the school assembly Jason was called onto the stage by the principal. His friends elbowed him and said, "Huh! You're against the rule right?" Jason was trembling in fear as it was the first time to be called onto the stage without notification. Then, he gave a glaze of smile on the stage as he was given a certificate of appreciation for his honesty.
