a man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find
his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
“daddy, may i ask you a question?”
“yeah sure, what is it?” replied the man.
“daddy, how much do you make an hour?”
“that’s none of your business. why do you ask such a
thing?”
the man said angrily.
“i just want to know. please tell me, how much do you make
an hour?” pleaded the little boy.
“if you must know, i make $20 an hour.”
“oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. looking up,
he said, “daddy, may i please borrow $10?”
the father was furious, “if the only reason you asked that is
so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other
nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go
to bed. think about why you are being so selfish. i work hard
every day for such childish behavior.”
the little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. the
man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little
boy’s questions. how dare he ask such questions only to get
some money? after about an hour or so, the man had calmed
down, and started to think: maybe there was something he really
needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn’t ask for money
very often.
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 too hard on you earlier,”
said the man, “it’s been a long day and i took out my
aggravation on you.
here’s the $10you asked for.”
the little boy sat straight up, smiling. “oh, thank you daddy!”
he yelled. then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some
crumpled up bills. the man, seeing that the boy already had
money, started to get angry again. the little boy slowly counted
out his money,
then looked up at his father.
“why do you want more money if you already have some?”
the
father grumbled.
“because i didn’t have enough, but now i do,” the little
boy replied. “daddy, i have $20 now. can i buy an hour of your
time? please come home early tomorrow. i would like to have
dinner with you.”
