THE MAGICAL CHOCOLATE

Once upon a time there was a boy named Joy. One day, Joy went to Dubai with his family to meet his relatives. He had lot of fun playing with his cousins. Generally he stayed back at home with his cousins when his mother went out shopping, but one time mom insisted that he should come too. Reluctantly, Joy accompanied his mother to the mall. While his mom shopped, he roamed around, looking about. Suddenly he saw an unattended baby stroller moving towards the escalator! Joy rushed towards the escalator, and stopped the stroller from falling down! The baby was still sleeping, blissfully unaware of what happened. The baby’ mother, who was busy looking in a shop window saw this, and came running. “You have saved my baby. I will be ever thankful to you.” She said, and got him a big box of chocolates. Joy was very proud of himself. Someone else was proud too—
The Blue Fairy!
The Blue Fairy came in Joy’s dreams that night, and said, “Joy, you were very alert today in the mall. I’ll reward you with a chocolate too. You can not eat it, but when you open its wrapper, this chocolate will turn any non-living thing it touches into real chocolate. But remember, you can only use it thrice. Bye!”
Joy was very excited about the magical chocolate, but he did not open it until they came back in Oman. As soon as they reached home, Joy ran to Sid’s house.
“Wow! You’ve got a chocolate for me from Dubai. Thanks Joy!” Sid said when he saw the chocolate.
“No!! I got it from the Blue Fairy!! It’s magical” Joy replied, and told Sid all about it.
“Let’s use it” they said together, and eagerly opened the wrapper. Inside was a thick bar of brown, tempting chocolate. They touched a pencil to the chocolate. Immediately, the pencil turned into a pencil shaped chocolate. The children divided it among themselves, and enjoyed the most delicious chocolate they had ever eaten!!
“Now let’s turn something bigger into chocolate, so that we can eat it for a long time” said Sid. Table, chair, wardrobes were out of question, as mom would notice their absence. “What can we turn into chocolate, and eat?” the kids wondered.
The children went out to the playground and noticed an old, out of use bicycle. Nobody used it anymore. They decided to turn the cycle into chocolate. As they touched their magical chocolate to the old, rusted cycle, it turned into chocolate!! The kids attacked it, eating away the bell and the brakes, the wheels and the handle of the cycle. Soon their stomachs were full, but the cycle was so tasty, they kept eating it until it was finished. By the time they returned to their homes, their stomachs were aching badly. Both Sid and Joy fell sick, and were taken to a doctor.
“You both are in a bad shape! What did you eat last night?” asked the doctor.
Sheepishly, the kids replied that they had eaten a lot of chocolate. The doctor gave them a lot of medicines, and asked them not to eat any junk food – chocolate, chips, candies or soft drinks for a whole month!!!!
“But we still have one chance left to use the magical chocolate!” whispered Joy to Sid.
“I know what to do” answered Sid mischievously, as he turned the chairs kept in the clinics’ waiting area into chocolate.
“For making all the sick children who’ll come here happy!” he explained as the magical chocolate vanished.
