"We are going to hunt" said Ori, one morning before the sun rose. Janie jumped out of bed and started to pull her shoes on when Ori put a gentle hand on her shoulder. "You will stay here."

"May I please go with you"

"No. You will have hours alone here. I am sure you will keep yourself occupied."

"Hours?" she asked, amazed. She'd never had that much playtime before. The order to g back to bed was heeded, and when she was awake she checked for any adults

NONE were around anywhere, and wouldn't be back until sunset. The child immediately ran through the building, shrieking and dancing, and having fun. Next, came food. She could eat all she wanted and that included the sweets.

The child gorged herself and was soon passed out with her head on the table and hand around a tin of chocolate.

"Janie, wake up. It's been hours" the little girl looked around the dark room, disappointed. Her free day had all gone to waste.
