One morning,Billy saw his mother came back with a container of sweets. Billy felt like eating the sweets.
But his mother said "Don't be greedy Billy. This is a present for your cousin. "
His mother put the container on top of a high wadrobe.
Billy's mother went to take a rest. Billy sneekly went to take a chair and a stack of newspaper to the kitchen. He climbed up the chair and took the container and thought, "Mum will not find out if I just take one sweet. "
Suddenly, Billy fell down and the container broke and shattered into little pieces. His mother heard the noise and she immediately ran to the kitchen. She knew that Billy had took the container of sweets and broke it and Billy broke into tears.
His mother scolded him that he had been greedy. She took the feather duster and punished him to clean up the mess. Billy learnt his lesson and will not be greedy and disobedient again.
