Once a young man named Steve sold fruits at the market each day in town. He always tried to be the first seller to arrive there. He believed that the earlier he got to the market, the more he could sell. This drove other sellers crazy, and they also came to the market earlier and earlier.
To get up even earlier, Steve thought that if he ate breakfast at night, he could get to the market earlier. So after he ate dinner, he ate his breakfast. He went to bed very full, but he knew it was for a good cause.
Morning came and Steve was surprised to see that there were already many people there. He realized that his plan had failed, so he decided to get dressed at night that he could save time in the morning. But in the morning some sellers were there before him again.
Steve decided to spend the night at the marketplace. He carried his bed to town. That night, he lay on his bed and watched the night sky. The moon was full and he was very excited. It was hard for him to sleep. When morning came, Steve was so sleepy and tired that he couldn’t get up, so he slept the whole day as the buyers came and left around him.
