Bobby, the bear cub was browsing the website Honey. com on his father’s laptop.
It was a famous online store that sold honey on the Internet. The website had mouth-watering image of a beehive dripping with honey.
To the left of the screen, the different flavours of honey were listed: strawberry, cherry, mango, pineapple, mint, rose and mixed fruit.
"Yesterday, I had strawberry honey, so today let me try the cherry-flavoured one," Bobby decided. He clicked a button and ordered a big bottle.
Bobby was alone at home as his parents were travelling. They had left their Debit card behind by mistake which Bobby now used to make the online purchases. He knew the card’s security number as he had helped his mother with her online transactions.
By afternoon, Bobby received the honey from Honey.com through a courier. As soon as Bobby opened the lid of the bottle, the smell of fresh honey made his mouth water.
"Wow! It smells heavenly," said Bobby.
After drinking half the bottle of honey, his stomach became full but not his taste buds and finished the entire bottle. Rubbing his tummy contently, Bobby slowly drifted to sleep.
