Uncle Volf

It’s evening. A Jewish family waits for uncle Volf to be on a visit. At least there is a door ring. Little Levy runs to the door crowing:

“Wow! Dear uncle Volf! You’ve brought me a bar of chocolate, haven’t you?”
“Believe it or not, I got up to your house, came to your next-door shop and what I saw! There was a notice STOCK-TAKING. The shop was closed. You know how I love you. Wait next week please.”

In the week at the same time the door opens and uncle Volf comes into the house.
“Uncle! Uncle! Have you brought me a chocolate now?”
“Dear Levy, you can’t believe how I love you! Today I came to your house, stepped into the shop, it was opened, followed to the confectioner’s department and saw the notice INVENTORY. Next week. Next week, I promise, my dear.”

Another week later little Levy is staying here when uncle Volf comes.
“Dear uncle, what’s now? Have you-“
“Oh, my little boy. Today I came to the shop, fortunately confectioner’s was open. I asked the salesman if he has any chocolate bars for my dear Levy. He answered they’ve run out. We’ve got lollipops.-“
“That’s great! You’ve bought me lollipops!” Levy claps his hands.
“Remember, Levy, while your uncle Volf is alive you’ll be eating only chocolate.”
