Aunt Betty was shocked.

Her nephew had been working in her garden, uncomplainingly, all week.
For this she had invited the boy on a visit to the very exclusive restaurant.

But now some doubt began to grow, regarding the wisdom of this decision.
The boy had just finished his fourth piece of a very rich cake.

He cleaned the plate thoroughly, before he reached out for the menu.

"Joseph, dear, don't you think you have had enough cake for today?", she tweeted in her sweetest voice.

Joseph smiled and said:
"Sure, dear aunty.

I would like some ice cream now."
