Forgetful Fred

It was Mother's day. Fred elder sister,Jane, wanted to prepare a scrumptious meal for Mother.Just when she was about to cook, she realised that she was short of oil.

"Fred! Could you help me go to the nearby supermarket to buy a bottle of oil?"she asked politely.

" Em...OK."Fred said reluctantly.

Fred thought that his sister was always bullying him so he reluctantly stomped his feet on the way to the supermarket. Along the way,Fred met his friend,Tom. Fred related the whole incident to Tom. "Just ignore your sister and come play with me!"Tom said

Fred thought that it was a good plan so he went to play with Tom. They wanted to play on the swing but a little girl was playing." Get off you this little girl or else we will bully you!"

The little girl listened and obeyed their instructions.

When the sunset, it was time to go home. Fred went home empty-handed.Jane scolded Fred severely and was disappointed with him for not being able to complete such a simple task. Upon reflection, Fred immediately ran to the nearby supermarket and bought the bottle of oil for her sister.

After this incident, a lesson was learnt for Fred and he never dared disobey his sister again.
