Punishment

One day, mama got a lot of fruit.

“When can we have some fruit?” we ask. “We will eat the fruit tonight, ” says mama.

My brother Rahim is greedy. He tastes all the fruit. He eats a lot of it.

“Look at what Rahim did!” shouts my little brother. “Rahim is naughty and selfish, ” I say.

Mother is angry with Rahim

We are also angry with Rahim. But Rahim is not sorry.

“Aren't you going to punish Rahim?” asks little brother.

“Rahim, soon you will be sorry, ” warns mama.

Rahim starts to feel sick.

“My tummy is so sore, ” whispers Rahim.

Mama knew this would happen. The fruit is punishing Rahim!

Later, Rahim says sorry to us. “I will never be so greedy again, ” he promises. And we all believe him.
