Harikesh Bal Every one in the slum, young or old, hated and taunted Bal for his repulsive appearance. This hateful and insulting treatment made him lose his temper. In anger he abused everyone and pelted stones. Already repulsive Bal appeared like a demon when he stomped and waved his hands with eyes burning red in anger.
Bal! Why do you quarrel! Go and
play alone. I will see you all.
Beat him!
Day and night Bal boiled with anger due to this hateful and insulting treatment he got from everyone.
One day, perched high on a tree, he was watching the boys play. Suddenly the boys started spouting.NON
WUWUN
Look ! Blacky !
Blacky.
Oh! Again calling me Blacky. Let
me see.
