Father Time And His Pattern Behaviour Book (by Shahrul Abbas)

Once, there lived a boy named Jason. He was a good and kind little fellow and often told lies. It was in the winter season and it was very cold outside. He lived in a street near by Downtown. Then it was Jason's bedtime and his mum said," Go to sleep and don't forget to brush your teeth."

Jason was brushing his teeth to make them clean and sparkling. Then jump in to bed. Then in the middle of the night, Diinngg.... Donning.... the door's bell rang and only Jason woke up. He quickly went to the door and said, "Who's outsideee...,"said Jason in a light sweet sound. "I am Father Time," said Father Time. Just to check, he looked through the pinhole and it was Father Time. So he quickly open the door at he stared at Father Time. Father Time is a wise old man he is so old that his beard was on the ground, Father Time had a pattern book with him and a great big scythe with him. Father Time said, "I have come to take your pattern behaviour". Jason said, "But I don't have pattern behaviour." "Yes, you do. I can see it. Would you like to see some pattern behaviour that you friends did?" Said Father Time. "Of course I would like to. Can I see the one that my little brother did?" said Jason. "Sure.", said Father Time.

He waived scythe and slowly pattern behaviour appeared. "Wow it is very nice and a little black of naughty behaviours and the white ones I thought they are the good behaviours. Can I see all my friend's pattern behaviours one by one?" said Jason. "It will waste much too of my time but I can show you two or three. Which one would you like to see first?" said Father Time. "How about Jenny's pattern behaviour? She is quite a good person in school." demanded Jason.

Father Time waived his scythe and showed Jenny's patter behaviour. There were many torn pages and it was not very nice. The torn pages ruin her whole pattern behaviour. Jason was shocked to see Jenny's pattern behaviour. He then asked Father Time to show his last year's pattern behaviour. "Hmm.... It looks good," smiled Father Time. "However the black spots ruin it. Do you know what causes them?" said Father Time. "I believe I know what they are,"said Jason looking sad. Jason realised that the black spots were the lies that he told and made a promise to himself that he would stop telling lies from now. "I believe that you can get a better book next year," said Father Time hugging Jason. "Well I have to leave now to get more pattern behaviours from other children. Thank you for letting in to warm up from the freezing cold. Good Bye." said Father Time. He then waived his scythe and disappeared.
