Ok, The story goes like this. There is a guy in a train and opposite to him are a aunt and 4-5 children. The aunt struggles to keep the children quiet. She then tells them a story about how a girl was saved because she was good. The children say the story is lame and the guy mocks her that she is not good at telling stories. The aunt challenges him to entertain them and he tells a story( with a diff ending to aunt's story) and the children love it. The aunt says it was irresponsible to tell the children such a story and guy replies he was at least able to keep them quiet. That's pretty much it. But the dialogues are good and I cant remember the story title. Almost certain it is O Henry. Can some one help?

That's "The Story-Teller" by Saki. It's included in The Complete Saki.

Note to self: correct answer.
