It was on a Friday afternoon, when the Creative Arts teacher walked into the classroom and taught the children on "imaginary drawing".
He narrated the story of a boss who was a chimpanzee, ordering his workers to stop being lazy with chit-chats but to work. While the workers felt the chimp was idle, they didn't know he was working on their rewards and possible promotion. He was pushing them to become better at their duties.
He added "talks don't pay bills, but honest work rewards."
The children shouted in unity: "I will work to pass my exams!"
The teacher gave them a home fun activity: "draw a chimpanzee in the office" and everyone who draws well will go to the zoo to see a real life chimpanzee.
The children were excited.
Little did they know that the home fun activity was the only "chimpanzee in the office".
Because chimpanzees live in the forest.
Sometimes the reward is in the drawing, not the zoo. Nobody wants to be with the chimpanzee in forest.
