I was silently reading a book in the light of a lamp in the middle of night.

I started feeling thirsty and went downstairs to quench my thirst.

When I returned to my room, I looked out of window.

There was a small boy sitting on the branch an apple tree in my garden.

I opened my window and saw that that boy was my neighbor's son, Joe. I told himthat it's late and he should go back to his home, his parents might be worrying.

After that I also went to bed.

In the morning when I woke, I remembered the happenings of last night.

Just then it striked me that:-

1. I no longer have an apple tree in my garden because it was cut five years ago.

2. Joe died when he fell from the Apple tree which used to be in my garden.
