00:00This is a story about a boy named John and his friends.
00:15John's father was a businessman.
00:18Sarah's father had passed away.
00:20She lived with her mother and took care of the children.
00:25Steve's father was a decent shopkeeper.
00:28Claire's parents were hardworking farmers.
00:33Rio lived a luxurious life.
00:35His father was a famous builder.
00:39The school gives scholarships to children who are good at studies.
00:43But they can't go to a big school because their financial situation is not good.
00:49But Rio had a very bad habit.
00:52He used to trouble the children who were weaker than him.
01:14Mama! Mama!
01:17I am very hungry.
01:19Please give me something to eat.
01:21How was your day, son?
01:23Boring!
01:24Without Rio, there is no fun in school.
01:27Hello, John.
01:28Hi, dear.
01:29John, why didn't you meet me after school bell rang?
01:33Did you forget that you had to take notes from me for your homework?
01:36Why didn't you come?
01:39What kind of behavior is this, John?
01:41Claire is asking you something.
01:43Listen to me.
01:44I need your help to take those boxes from top to bottom.
01:48Claire, leave your notes here.
01:51John will meet you later.
01:53He is a little tired now.
01:56John's father wanted him to spend more time with Sarah, Claire and Steve.
02:02Because they were smart and polite.
02:05But John's mother always tried to cover up his mistakes.
02:10And that's why John was getting worse.
02:19Hey, Andrew.
02:21That boy stole your compass.
02:24No, I didn't steal it.
02:26Search his bag.
02:27Yes, yes.
02:28Take it.
02:29Then you will know that Rio is lying.
02:33I don't know.
02:34Really.
02:36How did it get into my bag?
02:38Listen, I didn't do anything.
02:41Then I will have to complain to the teacher about it.
02:45That innocent boy was expelled from school for a month.
02:49Hey, John.
02:50Hi, Sarah. How are you?
02:52There is a big maths test tomorrow.
02:55Are you ready?
02:56What?
02:57When did the teacher tell about it?
03:00I don't even remember.
03:02Don't worry, John.
03:03We will help you in the test.
03:05Why is he helping me?
03:07There must be a problem behind it.
03:10By the way, it will be useful to me.
03:13Thank you. Bye.
03:17John was so busy with his own business that he couldn't see the goodness of others.
03:23Actually, instead of living with those who really cared for him,
03:29John often took care of Rio because his father was a famous person.
03:35Hey, Rio, look, I have brought biscuits of your choice.
03:39Yes, okay. Thank you.
03:42John didn't pay attention to his real friends as much as Rio didn't pay attention to John.
03:51Really? You guys are so boring.
03:55Oh, yes, really. These people are very boring.
04:00This is not the time to study.
04:02Really? Then what is the time to do?
04:06Oh, Christmas is coming. Friends, what are your plans?
04:10Oh, I have a lot of plans.
04:13My cousins are going to come on Christmas.
04:16And all of us are going to Europe for a holiday.
04:20And now we will return only after the New Year celebration.
04:26And you know, this is going to be the most expensive trip.
04:29And yes, I have to do a lot of shopping for this trip.
04:32Wow, this looks beautiful. You are lucky.
04:38My uncle is going to buy a new bag for the school.
04:41I have been waiting for this bag for months.
04:43And I will get new clothes. I am very happy.
04:47Wow, Sarah, this is great.
04:50I know you have been waiting for that bag for a long time.
04:53My parents are going to buy me a blazer suit, which I wanted for a year.
04:57And I will get my favorite chocolates.
05:01What will you get, Steve?
05:03Me?
05:04My parents are going to buy me new shoes, which I wanted for a long time.
05:08I was scratching my old shoes.
05:11And I am so happy that now I will be able to wear my new shoes.
05:16Also, my father will buy me new clothes for Christmas.
05:21You know, John, why are you quiet?
05:25What are your plans?
05:27I am sure John's plans will be better than everyone else's plans.
05:32But my plans can't be better than his plans.
05:37I am going to get an Xbox 10 for Christmas.
05:40But this is nothing compared to Riyo's plans.
05:43If I tell him my plans, he will think that I am poor.
05:47And he will break my friendship.
05:49And then all the kids will laugh at me.
05:52Oh, yes, my plans.
05:54I am going to get an Xbox 10, good clothes, shoes, toys, Christmas gifts.
06:01And this is nothing.
06:03I will give a Christmas party.
06:05And my Christmas tree will be the most expensive tree in the whole school.
06:09More expensive than our school's celebrity classmate Jason's Christmas tree.
06:15Wow!
06:16John, you are amazing.
06:19Yay!
06:20We will come to your house on Sunday to play Xbox.
06:24Yes.
06:26Actually, Riyo and I are going to play on Sunday.
06:29But the day he doesn't come, you can come for sure.
06:32Sarah, Claire and Steve were decorating the Christmas tree.
06:36With the things that can be reused.
06:39Like the stars that they were cutting from the calendar.
06:42To save money and to use less paper.
06:46Such a lot of stuff was being used.
06:49While John was buying expensive things for decoration.
06:54Everyone came to John's house to celebrate Christmas.
06:57But John forgot to invite Sarah, Claire and Steve.
07:02Everyone was happy except John.
07:05Because Riyo told him about an expensive silver star.
07:10And how because of that star, his Christmas tree will be more expensive than his celebrity classmate Jason's Christmas tree.
07:18Then John got a call from the shopkeeper.
07:21He told him that the star has come to him.
07:24Without wasting time, John went to his party to buy that star.
07:29He had to impress Riyo.
07:31Now I will become the most famous boy in the school.
07:34Finally, John got that big star.
07:37Now no one could stop him from becoming Riyo's best friend.
07:41I will take a shortcut to reach home.
07:45Actually, it was Christmas night.
07:47To impress Riyo and to become the most famous boy in the school.
07:51John forgot about the weather.
07:55John reached a deserted place.
07:57Where there were snow-covered mountains.
07:59And there was no one around.
08:01He realized that he is lost.
08:04And he started running to find the way.
08:06But suddenly.
08:09He slipped.
08:10And started falling down from the snow-covered mountain.
08:14Meanwhile, his fist opened.
08:17And his star fell down from his hand.
08:26John got tired.
08:27And he started crying.
08:30He felt that he will not survive.
08:34Save me.
08:36Save me.
08:39Someone help me.
08:42I think someone fell down from the mountain.
08:45How to bring him up?
08:47Hey, listen.
08:48This was Steve, Claire and Sarah.
08:51This is John.
08:52Oh my god.
08:53How did you reach here?
08:56Friends.
08:57Let's go.
08:58Let's bring him up quickly.
09:00Steve, see if we can get any help.
09:03This is a deserted place, Sarah.
09:05There is no shop or house nearby.
09:07Hurry up.
09:08Do something, friends.
09:09I have an idea.
09:11Suddenly, Sarah opened the gift bag.
09:13She took out new clothes for everyone.
09:16She tied a knot and made a rope out of it.
09:19We can't pull it like this.
09:21If we do this, we will also fall down.
09:24Is there anything nearby?
09:26Look there.
09:27A tree.
09:28Let's tie it to the tree.
09:30As soon as they tied the rope to the tree.
09:32They called out to John.
09:34John.
09:35Hold it tight and try to come up.
09:37John.
09:38Try to come up.
09:39We have tied it to the tree.
09:41We will pull you up.
09:43Come on, friends.
09:44We can do this.
09:46John held the rope.
09:48He tried to come up with all his strength.
09:51Steve, Claire and Sarah were about to fall down.
09:54John was trying to come up.
10:02Come on, friends.
10:04We can do this.
10:07Thank God.
10:09John was thankful for the help of his friends.
10:12Forgive me, friends.
10:14I always ignored you.
10:16You sacrificed your new clothes for me.
10:18You put your life in danger.
10:20John.
10:21New clothes will be bought again.
10:23These things are not so important.
10:25We are happy that you are safe.
10:28We are your friends, John.
10:30Don't apologize.
10:31As far as clothes are concerned.
10:33They are not more valuable than you.
10:35Absolutely.
10:36You are right, my friend.
10:38But how did you reach here?
10:40I went to buy a silver star.
10:42I forgot my way on the way.
10:44Did you also forget your way?
10:46No.
10:47We didn't forget.
10:48We didn't have money to buy a new Christmas tree.
10:51So we thought of decorating the real Christmas tree.
10:54Someone told us that there is a real Christmas tree here.
10:57So we came here to find it.
10:59But we didn't find it anywhere, John.
11:01Friends.
11:02Friends.
11:03I feel bad that I didn't invite you to the party.
11:06Please come with me.
11:08My Christmas tree will be incomplete without you.
11:11All the wealth is useless in front of true friendship.
11:15We will definitely come, John.
11:17Yes.
11:18Let's go, friends.
11:19As soon as everyone was ready to go.
11:21After walking for a while.
11:23John turned back to see the moon.
11:26Friends.
11:27Look there.
11:30Why?
11:32This is a Christmas tree.
11:34We found it.
11:36Our special Christmas tree.
11:39The things they made for decoration.
11:42They decorated the Christmas tree with those things.
11:45And John was very happy.
11:47Because Sarah made the same silver star.
11:50And she asked John to keep it up.
11:54This was the best Christmas for John.
11:57Because that night he got true friends.
12:00It was a lesson for him.
12:02Which he will always remember.
12:04That real Christmas stars are not bought.
12:07But earned.
