I like all kinds of chocolate, especially bitter chocolate. So when Mother had bought one, I couldn’t help thinking about 36.
I was helping Father in the yard when suddenly I got an idea. I could cut a piece 37 that chocolate without anyone knowing it.
I waited 38 Mother went outside feeding the chickens. Then I told Father I wanted to go for a drink of water. I went into the room and got the 39 down. Just when I had the knife ready to cut, I heard Mother coming. So I had to put the chocolate 40 into my shirt,
went to my mom and 41 the chocolate there. And then I went back to 42 Father.
All the rest of the afternoon, I didn’t dare to look at Father. Every time he spoke, it made me jump. My hands began shaking and my heart started 43 fast. I didn’t want the chocolate any more. I 44 wanted to get a chance to put it back.
