The Man That Was Swallowed By His Computer
Once upon a time, there was a young man called Jonas. He lived in a big and nice house, and had a happy life, even though he had no family. He ignored the poor people that lived in his neighborhood, and often laughed at them. He even once hit a little boy, just because he asked him for charity.
One day, an old man came to his house and rang at the door. "Are you another stupid man who wants charity?" shouted Jonas." No. Let me in, I want to talk to you". Jonas opened the door, and led his guest to the living-room. "What do you want?" asked Jonas. "I want to warn you" said the old man. "Warn me?" asked Jonas "warn me about what? Is it a joke? What do you want from me?"."I want you to stop abusing the poor people in your neighborhood, or else..." Jonas stopped the man with a shout "or else what? You will send me to jail? You can do nothing! Now get the hell out of my house, or else I will get you out by force!"." I warned you," said the old man "I gave you a chance, but you wouldn't listen. It's your problem now, and you will be sorry about it".
The old man left the house, and disappeared quickly. "Crazy old chap" thought Jonas.
An hour after this strange conversation between the old man and him, Jonas decided to play on his computer. When he switched on the computer, he saw a strange message: "You had a choice. Now it's too late". "Huh?" thought Jonas "What is it now?"
Suddenly, a strange white light came out of the computer. When the light disappeared, Jonas was no more in the room.
"Oh, God. What is going on here!?" shouted Jonas," Am I going crazy?"." No you aren't", said a mysterious voice. Jonas turned his face, and saw the old man. "So you didn't lie" said Jonas. "No, I didn't. Now, I'll give you your very last chance. You have the choice- being stuck in the computer for your whole life, or get back to your house, and give charity to the poor people and stop ignoring them." Jonas groaned deeply. "I guess I will have to choose the second choice".
The white light came out of the computer again. Jonas found himself in his very own house.
Till the end of his life, Jonas gave charity to poor people, and discovered that they can be very nice people, and he even got some new friends. From now on, Jonas was happier than ever, and died happy, giving his entire heritage to the people he used to abuse.
