James was an intelligent student who loved studying, reading stories, and meeting friends. In this story, the lost lunchbox is the most critical aspect.

James Bad Habit

James was an eight-year-old kid who read in the fourth standard. “James was generally a pretty good boy; however, he also carried a bad habit—irresponsibility.” He always lost something. Consequently, his mummy worried all the time about this.

Forget Notes

One day, James was present in his class, and his friend Clara came to meet him. He worried, Clara said, “James, You looked worried. What happened?”

James told her he had forgotten his notes at home and worried about them. Therefore, today is the last date for submitting my notes.. Sir Matthew William would not spare me if I did not submit them.

Please help me, Clara. What should I do now? Let me think about what we can do to save you from punishment! I got an idea that my father would go home for some reason today. Your home is also close to mine. I’ll call him, and he’ll take your notes from your home. 

Thank you so much, Clara. You helped me a lot today. It’s my pleasure, but James, you should be careful about essential things like your notes.

The Home Keys

After two days, James forgot Clara’s advice. He behaved in the same irresponsible manner, but on the following day, he learned a scary lesson. His father was out of town, and her mother went to do some critical work.


James and his little, cute brother Adam, who was only three years old, were the cause of her worry.. She had to leave him alone, as she couldn’t take him with her.

She went to James’ school and told him about her situation. She gave him the home keys and told him the maid would come at 2:00. Afterwards, you must take care of your brother.

I’ll return home at 5:00. He listened carefully to her mother’s advice. He kept the keys in his lunchbox to keep them safe.

The Lost Lunchbox

James was busy playing a game and forgot about his lunchbox. He returned to his class, and the lunchbox was lost. He became paralyzed because the maid would come at 1:30 p.m. and lock the door. His brother remained in the house.

James was in a horrible situation. He wasn’t concerned about his brother’s safety and lost his lunchbox. Sir Matthew William noticed the lost lunchbox and started to check the whole class to find it.
