Renato had always been bullied because of the burn scars he had on his face.This was why the other children would often call him the "map man".They also made fun of him every time he wanted to play with them.They would jokingly ask him to wear the mask they gave to him before showing his face to then.Despite that,He would just smile at them and ignore their insults.
One day,While Reneto was on his way home,he saw that a house near the street was burning. He noticed that the people in the area were helping to put out the fire.He went near them to see if he could do anything to help. A while later,he heard a loud scream of a child coming from the burning house. Everyone panicked,They did not know what to do.
Reneto kept himself calm and thought of a solution.Then, He remembered the mask given by the bullies.He immediately put it on to protect himself from the smoke,then he poured a pail of water to himself before he courageously went inside the burning house to rescue the child. After a few minutes, Renato and the child were running out of the burning house together. People came to meet them and to check if they were hurt badly. Both of them were brought to the hospital after that incident to treat their burns.
Renato had to stay for a week in the hospital to fully recover from his burns.When he came back to school, His classmates bowed and saluted him from his bravery and unwavering confidence in himself. They learned that the burn scars on his face were remnants of his bravery when he saved his sister from their burning house years ago.Since then, he was admired by the other students and nobody tried to bully him again.
THE END...
