A Story by de_maruf
"

I don't think it as a story

"

A tired man came home from his work.
His 5 year old son was waiting for him at the door.

Son: Dad, may I ask you a question ?
Dad- yeah
Son: Dad, how much you earn in an hour?
Dad: that's not your business.
Son: please tel me.
Dad: 10 $ per hour.
Son: dad, may I please borrow 5 $ ?

Dad got angry and sent his son to his bed.
The little boy went to the room 'n shut the door.

After short time, man got calm 'n
he went to kid's room 'n said
Sorry for being so hard. Here's your 5 $ u asked for.

Kid smiled- ohhh... Thank you so much daddy
Then boy took out some coins he had kept under the pillow,
he counted them 'n said

"Dad, I have 10 $ now.
Can I buy an hour of your time ?
Please come home early tomorrow.
I would like to have dinner with you."

that's precious! it's so important to make time for family, and kids have the sweetest ways of dealing with hardship. I disagree with the previous comments concerning your grammar. In poetry, such rules are mere suggestions anyway. I think the way you set it up makes it more like a little kid, how he'd speak and act. Makes it more relatable to the kid's standpoint. Great job :)

I must agree with some of the earlier reviews. Proper grammar is important when writing a story. While I can understand playing around with the wording and such when the little boy is talking to provide characterization it isn't really necessary anywhere else.
And also, I do agree that the story isn't 100% original but then again, what story is really. You did a great job telling it in your own way and that's admirable in itself. Good job.

Excellent, thankyou for sharing, there are so many children with the same wish, but not so many that are quite that intelligent.

Simple, but touching.
I love it! But here is my opinion.
When you write something like this, I prefer that people use proper English such as "I am" instead of "I'm"; "and" instead of "n".
I hope you can keep up your nice work.
Have a good day!
