Mrs Duncan was going away for about half a month on a business trip. Before she left, she said to her son, “If anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your mother has been out for doing something important, and will be back in half a month, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of coffee.”

“OK, mom,” said her son. But she was afraid that her son couldn't remember this, so she wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to his son. Her son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.

Sixth days passed, but no one came to visit his mother. The boy thought that there was nobody coming and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening. The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A lady was standing at the door and said, “Where is your mother?” The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. But he could not find it. He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, “No more.” The lady was very surprised. She asked, “No more? I met your mother last week. When did it happen?” “Burnt yesterday evening.”
