here is a small story i thought (and also narrated to) tintin the other night:
an old man (tin's dada) had a donkey. the donkey's name was toto (tintin thought of this name BTW). so the old man felt like delivering goodies to another old man (baba). the goodies included cars for tintin, chicken sticks for zombua and lots of toffees for baba (since he is off cigarettes and survives on them)...anyways.....the duo set on their journey .. toto had all the stuff on his back in a BIG SACK...
half way though the journey, toto says: "i am tired and i want to eat"...... so he is offered water..he sips and then says "but i am hungry, need something to chew on!!!".....since the old man is carrying nothing but the sack full of goodies, he asks him if toffees would do....nodding his head, toto says " YEAH". then he get one toffee from the sack. to make it more interesting for toto, the old man rubs it on the sand and some leaves ...so that it smells more real to him.....they set for the journey
the two walk and keep walking until toto insists that he wants to visit a shopping mall! the old man is completely clueless and asks him why he wants to go to a mall. toto recollects that he was promised a car ride!!!!! completely aught unawaress, the old man says he could offer toto a miniature car...toto is still happy. he asks the old man to hang the small car on his leash and feels happy to own a car....the two keep walking. after a while, toto feels that he must have something to munch so that the rest of the journey can be covered at peace....so he asks the old man to offer him some chewies ...since the old man has none, toto suggests that he could manage with the chicken sticks!!!! this irritates the old man, but then the two had to carry on. so he took out one chew stick from the sack and rubs it on hay...toto loved it so much that he gobbled it at one go without much thought!!!
soon, the two arrived at baba's place and unloaded the sack full of goodies...zom got his share of sticks minus one, baba got his share of toffees minus one while tintin got his cars minus one .....
