有一日,媽咪買咗好多生果。

One day, mama got a lot of fruit.


我哋問:「幾時可以食生果呀?」媽咪就話:「我哋今晚先有得食。」

“When can we have some fruit?” we ask. “We will have the fruit tonight,” says mama.


我大佬拉希姆好貪心,樣樣生果都想試吓,結果食咗好多。

My brother Rahim is greedy. He tastes all the fruit. He eats a lot of it.


細佬大叫:「睇吓拉希姆做嘅好事!」我就跟住話:「拉希姆好曳好自私。」

“Look at what Rahim did!” shouts my little brother. “Rahim is naughty and selfish,” I say.


媽咪好嬲拉希姆。

Mother is angry with Rahim.


我哋亦都好嬲拉希姆,但係拉希姆一啲都唔慚愧。

We are also angry with Rahim. But Rahim is not sorry.


小細佬就問:「你會唔會罰拉希姆呀?」

“Aren’t you going to punish Rahim?” asks little brother.


媽咪就警告拉希姆:「你好快就會後悔㗎啦。」

“Rahim, soon you will be sorry,” warns mama.


冇幾耐,拉希姆果然開始唔舒服。

Rahim starts to feel sick.


拉希姆細細聲話:「我個肚好痛呀。」

“My tummy is so sore,” whispers Rahim.


媽咪預咗會噉樣嘅。拉希姆正受到生果嘅懲罰!

Mama knew this would happen. The fruit is punishing Rahim!


後來,拉希姆同我哋道歉話:「我以後唔會再咁貪心㗎喇。」我哋全部人都相信佢。

Later, Rahim says sorry to us. “I will never be so greedy again,” he promises. And we all believe him.
