Adult stories for children

Since that time I go to the river, if I have free time. There we get together and sing songs all day long. And the worm crawls out of the silt and sings with us, though I have never heard its voice, but it’s very interesting for me to know, how he communicates with fishes?

A SWEET

One day a friend of mine offered me a sweet. I went to work, carrying my bag in one hand and the sweet in another. I went and looked at the sweet with admiration. I thought, I would put my bag, sit at the desk and eat it. Suddenly I saw my boss, going towards me. He was pleased to see me, stretched his hand and said, ‘Good morning. How are you? I see you are in a good mood.’ He talked to me and looked at my sweet. I shook his hand and thought, ’If somebody offered you a sweet, Ivan Petrovich, you would be in a good mood, too.’ But I said aloud, ‘Morning. Excuse me, I’m in a hurry. I’m very busy.’ And I went to my office.

I came in, put my bag, sat at the desk and as soon as I started to unwrap the sweet, my colleagues appeared at once, just one after another. They entered as if to solve business problems, but looked askance at my sweet. I took it and hid into the bag. I did it, because there were a lot of people in the office, but I had only one sweet, and I couldn’t treat all of them to it!

My working day was over and I went home. There I had another bad luck, the guests; there were eight people on the whole. Naturally, I pretended to be glad to see them, but I didn’t let the bag with the sweet out of my hands and sat at the table with it. The guests laughed at me.
