Youre permitted to leave the office early today.”The scientist started working. He continued his work after lunch.

He looked for his boss but he was not there. Having told him in the morning himself, he closed everything and left for home. Deep within himself, he was feeling guilty for having disappointed his children. He reached home. The children were not there. His wife alone was sitting in the hall and reading magazines. The situation was explosive; any talk would boomerang on him. His wife asked him, “Would you like to have coffee or shall I straight away serve dinner if you are hungry?” The man replied, “If you would like to have coffee, I too will have but what about the children?” His wife replied, “You dont know? Your boss came here at 5:15 p. m. and has taken them to the exhibition.”What had really happened was the boss who gave him permission was observing him working seriously at 5:00 p. m.
