Reward from school

One day I arrived from school in my van, and was holding a white stapled envelope, and as soon as I spotted Mama I gave it to her. On top of it was written, “Ronav, Reward for good work, to be eaten after lunch” and a smiley. Mom was delighted, and she asked me what I had done to get this reward.

Mama: Rono, what good work did you do?

Rono: I did naughty things in school.

Ofcourse the lollylop inside did not have to wait for after lunch and was consumed soon after.
