King Of The Foolish

Translate by : Vaynard

Once upon a time, there was a king who dandy, and very fond of wearing new clothes. He spent much time just looking at herself in the mirror, and always wanted to wear new clothes in the morning, noon and even in the night when he went go to bed!

On one day, came two fraudsters posing as a great dress maker. They claim that they are good at weaving and making clothes with very good quality, to the extent that the cloth they use to make clothes will not be seen, except by smart people.

When the king heard this, he was very interested. "That's good, so I can know who is stupid and who is smart in this kingdom." He thought. The king immediately ordered the two men to make new clothes for him, using a special fabric. They were given a special room in the palace, along with threads of gold which they have requested. Both fraudsters hide the threads of gold which they receive, and then pretend to work hard to make a dress.

I've always managed to forbid my father to come to school: take, pick up, or for other purposes. Of course I did not outright ban. I have my ways so I do not feel I forbid him to school. Like a report card-making season the day before yesterday, for example.

"Mom, you are taking my report card isn’t it, Father Look tired, "I said at the time.
"But tomorrow is not it Saturday, Father's day off, not going anywhere. "
"Every day father's always work, just off Saturday and Sunday. So, Saturday and Sunday is the turn of father to rest at home, reading, watching television, or watering the flowers. Relax, Dad. Guaranteed, my report card just cool," I said trying to 'ban' father to school.
