There was this kid who passed a hobo on the street, the hobo snatched his arm and gave him a piece of paper that had some writing on it. The kid quickly ran away from the hobo with the paper in hand, wondering what on eath was that about.
He opened the piece of paper but couldnt understand what it said. Later at school the kid walked up to the teacher and asked what the paper said. The teacher read the paper and quickly took a pointer from the blackboard and hit the kid several times.
Well...the kid gets home, sniffling lightly on the driveway where his father fixes the family car. The father asks the kid what was wrong and he answers that the teacher had hit him with the pointer for showing the paper. The father was a bit amazed and asked to see the paper, and so the kid gave him the paper.
The father read it and quickly took his monkey wrench, beating the boy several times with it. The boy ran to his mother , crying wildly. The mother almost paniced and asked what had happened to his lovely boy.
The kid again showed his mother the paper and said daddy had beaten him because of it. The mother read the paper and instantly her eyes widened, her hand snatching a bowl from the table and with it she beats the boy many times.
Well... the kid grows up, dramatised by those incidents, the paper haunting him all along his years. Finally the boy, now a man, joins the navy and on the ship, out in the roaring seas, his curiosity wakes up again.
The "boy" walks up to a fellow sailor and holds the paper up to him and asks once again for a long time, what the paper said. The sailor looked at the paper and with a gasp from between his lips he draws his pistol and shoots the "boy" on the knee.
Well this causes an incident ofcourse, the captain of the ship called on the scene. The captain asks what this all was about and why the sailor had shot the "boy". The boy shows the captain the piece of paper, his eyes quickly growing wide and he orders the boy to be thrown into the sea!
But before the captains orders could be done, the second in command steps up to him and says that they couldnt just kill a man like that, they were the navy afterall. Well... the captain angrily agreed to give the "boy" a raft so he could find a remote island or something, but he wanted the boy out of his sight.
As they were lowering the boy to the raft the boy asked the captain if please, -please- could he tell what the paper said.
The captain, even in his angered state, agreed again and wrote another piece of paper and folded it, giving it to the boy saying that the boy couldn't read the paper until the ship had gone behind the horizon, and that was an order. The boy agreed to this and soon he was floating in the sea, waiting for the ship to disappear behind the horizon like the captain ordered him to do.
As the ship finally disappeared the boy sighed in relief unfolded the paper and held it high so he could see better in clear sunlight what it said. After years of torment finally ...FINALLY he could see why he was beaten up so much for a piece of paper...
...and then a seagul snatched the paper and flew away. The end.
