Lie Has No Footstep

Early one morning Jama came late to school and his teacher was very angry about it. He shouted at him at the top of his voice as punishment. Jama said to his teacher, "Don’t beat me! The reason I am late is because my father choked with meat and died". The teacher excused him that morning. A few months later he was late as before and made the same excuse to be saved. This time he said his father died while walking. The teacher said to him, "Jama how many fathers do you have in all?". He answered, "One". "But what is it about these fathers of yours dying?" the teacher asked. There was no way to answer, so he was punished that morning. Some weeks later he was absent again and came back to school to take an exam. The teacher asked him about his long absence without permission. He deceitfully answered that he fell down from a mat and broke his hand. The teacher laughed and said, "A mat lies on the ground. How did you fall down?" Jama said, "Even I wonder how I fell down from a mat lying on the ground and now it happened to me."
