Not bothered!

Once upon a time, there was a boy called Ahmed.
Ahmed was never bothered ?
He would wake up in the morning after brushing his teeth, whether he wore black or white he wasn’t bothered ?
He had breakfast, two toast. Whether he had jam or butter he wasn’t bothered ?
He walked to school or caught the bus ? he wasn’t bothered ?
Whether he was late or on time he wasn’t bothered  ?
He looks at the weather, whether it was the sun or rain he wasn’t bothered ?
Lunchtime comes! Whether he has sandwiches or chips ? he wasn’t bothered ?
Hometime he runs home, smiling or crying, he wasn’t bothered ?
“How was school?” It was okayyyyy. I don’t careeeee. He wasn’t bothered ?
He gets ready for Madrasah with a cookie in his mouth. Learning sabaq, one page or half a page he wasn’t bothered ?
He comes to Madrasah with a smile sits down and says I don’t know my sabaq!! Teacher says stand up! “Stand or sit I’m not bothered” ?
He goes home and runs to bed. He thinks, “I’m just nottt botheredddd!!”
This was written to show how laid back some children are. How ungrateful children can be sometimes. I am sure many parents can relate to this.
