 AT THE RESTAURANT
Mark and Julie went to Greece on holiday. They stayed in a nice, big hotel. In the mornings, they had breakfast at the
hotel and in the evenings, they ate dinner at local restaurants. One night, they went to the ‘Efkaristo’ and they sat
outside because it was lovely warm weather. They ordered fish, with salad and chips. The waiter served it and he
brought their water and some red wine. They made a toast to a great holiday and they drank some wine. They saw a
big sign. It read ‘Do not feed the cats.’ Soon, they saw a beautiful tabby cat. It came up to their table. It sat beside
Julie. It looked up at her and meowed. ‘Aw, isn’t it sweet?’ she said to Mark. Mark smiled and nodded his head. Then
Julie cut a piece of fish and gave it to the cat. It ate the fish and licked its paws. The waiter saw and he frowned – he
was not happy! When he went inside, Julie cut another piece of fish for the cat. This time, the cat did not wait! It
jumped on the table, took the fish and quickly jumped back down. Then it ran off, with the fish in its mouth. At that
moment, the waiter came back out. He saw the cat with the fish. He looked at Julie, but he didn’t say a thing. His
look said it all.
