Question

John worked hard but he was still very poor. He was very sad all day. One day when he came home from work, he saw his daughter in the living room. She was playing with colorful wrapping paper. John got angry.

“Where is the paper from?” John asked.

“I bought it with my pocket money. ” the girl answered.

“You won’t get money from me any more. ” John said and went to his room.

The father was surprised to see the colorful box. He felt sorry for his anger that day. He touched the girl’s head and opened the box. He became angry again when he found nothing inside.

“Why is it empty? Are you playing a trick on me?” the angry father asked.

“No, Dad. It’s not empty. I put many kisses in the box. All for you, Dad. ”
