mike and nick were schoolboys. they lived in the country. the boys went to school together and they liked to play and spend their leisure time together.
one day mike сamе to nick's house and said, "nick, you have so many good books. i see this is an interesting book in your library which i haven't read.
can you lend me this book to read? i'll bring it back next week".
nick did not want to lend books to other people, and he said, "why do you want to take my book home? you can read it here, in my house. i want you to come again and read here".
mike saw what kind of a friend he had, but he did not say anything. he wanted to teach him a lesson.
the next week nick came to mike and said, "mike, you have a good garden knife.
i want to work in my garden tomorrow. can you give it to me for two days? "
mike answered, "why do you want to take my garden knife home? you can work with it in my garden".
