Teacher: Cammack, AM Interesting Story by Rosane Rahman T his interesting story is not about me, it is about my dad. He told me when I was young, and I will never forget. On a weekend, a few years ago, before I was born, my aunt and her little two month old baby, had been visiting my parents. The baby had been fed breast milk. But my aunt had a lot of milk, more than the baby could drink. So on a late afternoon she extracted milk with a small device, and placed it in a cup in the refrigerator. When my dad came home at night, he went to the refrigerator to get the milk as he did every day. And just imagine! The milk was ready to drink in the cup, and that was what he did. In the next day morning my aunt was the refrigerator and saw that milk was not there and asked, “Who took the milk that I put here?” My dad asked, “The milk that was in the cup?” “Yes,” said my aunt . “Oh no! I took it and drank it!” exclaimed my dad. After this day he never took milk in a glass without asking if it is cow’s milk . Teacher: Cammack, AM 18
