NARATIVE TEXT



The man came home from work late again. He felt very tired. His 5 year old son waited for him at the door. Then the boy asked. "Daddy, may I ask you a question?"
"Yeah, sure, what is it?" Replied the man.
"Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?"
"That's none your business! What makes you ask such a thing?" The man said angrily.
"I just want to know. Please tell me, how much money do you make an hour?" Pleaded the little boy.
"If you musk know, I make $20.00 an hour."
"Oh," the little boy replied, head bowed.
Looking up, he said, "Daddy, may I borrow $10.00 please?" The father was furious.
"If the only reason you want to know how much money I make is just so you can borrow some to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you'd better go to your room and go to bed. Think about why you're being so selfish. I work long, hard hours everyday and don't have time for such childish games." The little boy quietly went to this room and shut the door.
After an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think he may have been a little hard on his son. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door. "Are you asleep son?" He asked.
"No, daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy.
"I've been thinking, maybe I was to hard on you earlier" said the man. "It's been a long day and I am very tired and say something rude to you. Here's that $10.00 you asked for." The little boy sat straight up, beaming. "Oh, thank you daddy!" He yelled.
Then, reaching under his pillow, he pulled out some more money. The man, knowing the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at the man.
"Why did you want more money if you already had some?" The father grumbled.
"Because I didn't have enough money, but now I do," the little boy replied.
"Daddy, I have $20.00 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?" The man couldn't speak for a moment and finally he realized his mistakes. He spent too much time to work. He didn't have much time to work. He didn't have much time for his son. With eyes full of tears, he hugged his son and asked for forgiveness.
