A father was coming home exhaustedly and 7 years old son come up welcoming and opening the door cheerfully. While taking his suitcase, the son asked his father....
Son : Dad...may i ask you a simple question ?
Father : Hmmm....what's the question ?
Father : Daddy...how much is your one hour salary ?
Father : That's not your bussiness....,why did you ask that stupid question ?
The father getting angry.
Son : I just wondering to know....please tell me how much you got in an hour at your office ?
The son trying to beg to his father hoping desperately for his father's answer
Father : 20 thousand rupiah(=+ 2dollars) for one single hour. Why do you want to know about it ?
His father asking again..
Son mumbling : Oh....20 thousand rupiah....
The son looking down,he was staring at the floor
Son : Daddy..may I borrow 10 thousand rupiah from you ?
The father getting little bit angrier immediately and then said, "Oh, so that's why you did ask me about my income per hour...
What will you do with that money ?Ask me 10 thousand ?To buy more toys ?I am working so hard to get that sum of money, and then you just playing and wasting that money ?It's enough....,
I want you to go to bed now... !!
Then the son stayed in silence and slowly walking towards his bedroom . The father sat in the sofa and wondering why his very little son asking him sum of 10 thousand rupiah.
After 2 hours passed, the father got calmed back, the thought passing his mind that maybe his son really need it for his school purposes because he never ask that sum of money before. He felt very guilty and then walking towards his son's bedroom. He found his son still not sleep yet.
Do you really need that 10 thousand my son... ?So take it.....
The father then took a sheet of red colour 10 thousand rupiah from his wallet and gave it to his son. He was waking cheerfully and smiling happily.
Thank you so much Daddy! "Then he lifted his pillow and took out another sheet of 10 thousand rupiah that now looked dingy because folded by the pillow. Seeing the money, the father got uggrieved and felt bitter.
"Why did you ask more money for you did alredy have that much of money?And where did you get it ? "
The son turned down his face....discourage to stare at his father face.Crushing the money in his hand and then he talked softly....
This money.....I was spending it day a day from my daily allowance from you that you gave for my purpose at school. I asked you another 10 thousand rupiah for I have no money anymore.....
Do not have anymore money for what.. ?
The father cut his son's word.
Dad....now I already have 20 thausand rupiah in my hand ....Please you take it. I want to buy from you one hour of your time at the office. I would like you to return home earlier tomorrow......
I want to get a dinner with you............
The son said it without noticing his father.
Note : Spend little bit of your time for the person you loved...
because we do not know what will happen tomorrow....
you can look for the money,but money can not buy your love
