Full Story (English):

Episode 1: An Unexpected Gift

In a small, quiet village, there lived a young girl named Sara. Sara’s parents were very poor; her father worked all day in the fields just to provide two simple meals a day. Despite their poverty, Sara had a burning passion for learning. She didn't have expensive books or a fancy school, but she had a dream. One evening, while sitting by a sparkling pond and feeding the fish, she spotted something shining in the tall grass. As she walked closer, she found a beautiful, glowing blue pen. Sara picked it up and took it home. That night, she tried to solve a very difficult Mathematics problem in her old notebook. Suddenly, the pen began to move on its own! Sara watched in amazement as the pen solved the entire problem in seconds with perfect accuracy. She realized this was no ordinary pen—it was a Magic Pen.

Episode 2: The Silent Pen

The next morning, Sara went to school feeling extremely confident. It was the day of a big Maths exam. Sara thought to herself, "Why should I study? I have the magic pen now!" When the teacher handed out the exam papers, Sara proudly took out her blue pen. However, as soon as she tried to write the first answer, the pen became as heavy and hard as a stone. Its magical glow faded away completely. Sara tried and tried, but the pen wouldn't move. Suddenly, a golden message appeared on the side of the pen: "I only help those who first try to help themselves." Sara felt a deep sense of shame. She understood that magic is only a support, but the real effort must come from the person. She put the pen aside and focused hard, solving as many questions as she could with her own knowledge. Once she had finished most of it, the pen started glowing again and helped her complete the final, most difficult part.

Episode 3: Jealousy and Theft

When the exam results came out, Sara had topped the entire school. Everyone was talking about her intelligence, but one boy named Aryan was very jealous. He was convinced that Sara had a secret tool that helped her win. One day, during the lunch break when Sara left the classroom, Aryan sneakily opened her bag and stole the glowing blue pen. He hid it deep inside his own schoolbag. When Sara returned and found her pen missing, she burst into tears. She felt as though her greatest strength had been taken away. But then, she remembered the pen’s lesson: "Real magic is hard work." She wiped her eyes and promised herself that she would continue to study hard, even without the magic pen.

Episode 4: The Thief is Caught

At home, Aryan was thrilled. He thought he would now become the top student without opening a single book. He opened his notebook and wrote a tricky math question: "If a garden has 25 trees and each tree has 4 apples, how many apples are there in total?" As soon as Aryan tried to use the pen, it became burning hot in his hand. Instead of writing the answer 100, the pen began writing "THIEF! THIEF!" in big, bold letters all over the page. Aryan panicked and tried to throw the pen away, but a thick, black ink leaked out and covered his hands. The ink was so strong that it wouldn't wash off with soap or water. Now, his secret was visible to everyone.

Episode 5: The Triumph of Truth

The next day at school, Aryan tried to hide his hands, but the teacher noticed them immediately. When she asked him what happened, Aryan broke down in tears and confessed everything in front of the whole class. He returned the pen to Sara, and as soon as Sara touched it, the black ink vanished from Aryan’s hands as if it were never there. Sara showed great kindness and forgave Aryan for his mistake. By the end of the year, Sara received the "Best Student Award." She didn't need the magic of the pen anymore because she had learned that true magic lies in one's own dedication and hard work.
