Once upon a time, there was a boy called Tommy. He was the naughtiest in the village. He always played tricks on the other villagers.

One day, he was so bored to play in the house, so he thought of an idea to play tricks on people… He used some red light to light the room, and then he shouted,
‘Fire! My house is on fire!’
Some villagers came, and when they got in the house, some water splashed on them. Tommy was laughing
‘Ha! Ha! Ha! What silly people you are!’
The villagers were so angry. They left with anger.
  
One sunny day, Tommy was bored again. He played with a lighter.
‘Ah!’
 
Tommy was hurt by the lighter. The lighter was thrown on the floor and the house was on fire! Tommy shouted,
  ‘On fire! The house is on fire!’
 
 But this time, nobody helped Tommy. Nobody got in the house and put off the fire. Tommy bitterly regretted. He finally knew why nobody helped him. Suddenly, some water spouts splashed inside the house through the window. Someone had gotten inside the house! Tommy yelled,
  ‘Help! Help! ’
 
At last, some villagers rescued Tommy. Tommy promised everyone that he would never trick people again.

No one will believe a habitual liar even when he is telling the truth.    (220words)
