A PUNISHMENT
ONCE UPON A TIME, THERE WAS A LITTLE BOY WHO ALWAYS TOOK
THE BIGGEST PIECE OF CAKE. HIS PARENTS WERE QUITE
ANNOYED OVER THIS, AND WANTED TO TEACH HIM A LESSON
HE WOULD NEVER FORGET. SO THEY FILLED THE LARGEST
PIECE OF DESSERT WITH EVERY VARIETY OF HOT PEPPERS.
WHEN THE BOY DEMANDED IT, AFTER THEY HAD FINISHED
THEIR MEAL, THEY GAVE IT TO HIM; AND, AFTER BITING
INTO IT, HE NEVER ASKED FOR THE BIGGEST AGAIN.
Submitter comment:
MY SISTER HAD HEARD THIS LITTLE STORY FROM MY MOTHER,
ABOUT FIVE YEARS BEFORE SHE TOLD IT TO ME.
