Solution
| Varun | Kanin, you are always ahead of us. How? |
| Kanin | Varun, my dad insists that I must be always punctual. |
| Varun | Are they going to reward you? |
| Kanin | No, virtue can’t ask for a reward because it is a reward by itself. |
| Varun | How does punctuality help us? |
| Kanin | Punctuality makes others believe that you value their time. |
| Varun | What can I do to be punctual? |
| Kanin | It is simple. Have a calendar for your daily activities. Fix a time for everything. You will reap the fruits soon. |
| Varun | Who else did well? |
| Kanin | Thank you |
