Peter's cake

Peter came home running, with a big smile on his face. He had saved a piece of cake to eat after school and he knew that it would be delicious.

But what sadness! When he opened the oven, the cake wasn't there. Not a crumb, not even the plate. Peter immediately wanted to cry, but he had an idea.

- I'll call Dad! He will help me.

He found his father taking care of the garden.

- Dad! - he called, stepping onto the grass - My cake disappeared and it was Anna who ate it!

- Hey, son, so much rage! I'm going to talk to your sister, but first I want to know if you're sure.

- I didn't see it, but I know it was her! Anna always takes everything that is mine. If my cake is gone, she's the one who ate it.

	- My son, we must not accuse without proves. Imagine the reverse situation. Would you like to be blamed even before a conversation? Peter was very annoyed. He wanted to blame his sister for his missing cake. But deep down,
he knew he was wrong.

- Let's go to the kitchen, son. I believe your cake is just stored in the wrong place.

Soon the two began looking for the cake everywhere. They looked in the sink, inside the drawers and even on the table. But no sign of the delicious dessert.

Until, they finally found the cake! It was on the top of the fridge! It was stored in a closed pot, it was very well disguised.

- There it is, my son, now you can eat it. Next time something goes missing, try not to accuse. Remember that Jesus taught that we must not judge.
