Shoe Shine

SHOESHINE

In India when a child is born, he gets one among the three classes of family. It can be a rich family or a poor family or a middle class family. There is a vast difference between these classes. They are connected somehow but at the depth you will just find a hierarchical anger and frustration. 

Part I

He is the son of a millionaire. He drives the most luxurious cars and he can gift expensive items to his friends and family. He is the owner of a very big company which breaks its own profit records and is on the wheels of success. He have a very big friend circle and most of them belongs to the rich families only. 

He is getting ready to visit a grand party and he is in hurry. He picks his favorite car and driver and he is ready to go. Meanwhile, he realizes that he should give some shine to his shoes. The car stops. He gets out. He calls a man and asks him if he can shine his shoes. The man take out his tools and provides an ultimate shine to his shoes. He throws a coin and goes on his way.

Part II

He is the son of a government teacher. He is doing a job in bank and earns around 12000 a month. His parents are looking for a good life partner for him. He is quite frustrated from his life but he manages to do his job well. His boss likes him and so he invites him in a party. He attends it in his formal clothes. Suddenly a man accidentally threw some wine on his dress and shoes. He almost cried at him but soon he realized that he made a mistake. Shouting at a millionaire in a party is no less than a crime. 

"Oh I am sorry sir. My mistake." He runs from there quickly. He looks towards his shoes which are now looking dirty. He escapes from the party. He finally finds a poor cobbler and asks him to shine his shoes. He throws some coins towards him and thanks him and leaves.

Part III

He don't know anything about his father. He stays in slums and have a bicycle. He cleans shoes and earns. He hates his job but this is all he can do. He is illiterate and his sons also don't go to any school. He never stole anything but now he feels that there is nothing wrong in it. 

He watches luxurious cars, rich people who come running towards him and asks him to rub their shoes. They throws some coins and pass away without saying anything. It was this morning a man came and asked him to shine his shoes. He was looking very rich and he thrown a silver coin. May be accidentally, but he threw an original silver coin. He wanted to return it but he didn't. He thanked god.

After sometime, a man came running towards him. He asked to shine his shoes. They were so dirty as some liquid was spilled on it. For once he thought he should leave this business but he cleaned his shoes. They were shining now. The man went away after thanking him. Now, he will never clean shoes. He will buy one pair and he will clean them daily. He will show his friends his new shining shoes and he knew he will be happy!
