Billy and the Passionfruit, Part 7 of 7.

Disclaimer: I disclaim this story; that is to say, it is not my own. I heard it somewhere.

[The remainder of this text will be in white print, so as not to spoil the ending.]


Billy was elated. He would finally get to see the wizard! His prior melancholy forgotten, Billy jumped into action.





He dashed across the grass...





ran through the south gate of the park...





darted across the street...





and was knocked over by a car.





Billy died in hospital an hour later.










The moral of the story is:





Always look both ways before you cross the street.
