It was a hot Monday morning. Alimin was on his way home from school.

As he was
feeling hungry, he took a shortcut through Pak Abu’s house. Upon reaching Pak
Abu’s house, he saw a huge mango tree. It was bearing a lot of ripe juicy mangoes.
The mangoes made Alimin’s mouth water. He was tempted to pick the mangoes.

Alimin put his knapsack down and looked left and right. There was nobody
around. Without much hesitation, Alimin started to climb up the tree. He picked all
the big and juicy mangoes. He ate them to his heart’s content. Then he saw more
juicy mangoes at the far end of the branch. He decided to pick them. He stepped
on a weak branch and reached for the mangoes.

All of a sudden, the branch broke. Alimin fell to the ground. He groaned in
pain and screamed for help. Luckily a passer-by heard his scream. He quickly ran to
the rescue. He examined Alimin and told him that his right leg was broken. Taking
pity on him, the man took Alimin to the hospital. Alimin regretted what he had
done.
