FROM THE RELENTLESS 'NO!' TO 'YESSSSSSSS....' IN MINUTES!


It was evening hrs.. The child of 6+ was not in no mood to study and the mom was becoming more strict. The grandfather observing all that soon patted the boy and said with a smile,

"Okay, dear.. If you don't want to study we won't and we'll do what you like to do. Promise!"

"I want to play!"

"Okay, okay.. You'll sure play.. But today, You'll not play with your play items.. You'll play with your books!"

"Silly.. How can I play with my books?"

"I'll show you.. Bring your Maths, History, Geography and Civics books!"

The child was amused. Instantly, he brought his school bag and took out the 4 books. The grandpa looked at the Maths text book for few secs and said,

"Why's the Maths book sad? Because it has so many problems!"

(The credit of this goes to the Original unknown Author of the Riddle)

That funny talk instantly made the child very curious. Soon the grandpa started his own funny way..

"Why is the History book not caring? Because all the people it talks of are not there today to question it!"

The child was too jubilant to listen to his grandpa talk thus..

"Why is the Geography book very anxious? It has everything of the world and wants to share that with others!"

In no time, child came to a great attentive mood..

"Why is the Civics book feeling bad? Because, it taught so many morals and disciplines but some are not disciplined still!"

He said finally looking at the boy..

"I am a disciplined boy!"

The boy replied affirmative never ready to say 'less' there..

"Then, we should show that to it, isn't it?"

"Yes!"

"So.. We'll make all our 4 books cool now by studying and then you will have your favorite... I promise!"

"Yesssss...."

Said the little boy coming to a totally different mood and soon got into his studies for the day!
