Dinner Drama

My nephew Ben loves food more than anyone I know. He will literally SCREAM if you take away his meal of choice. I got the opportunity to document the drama as it was happening and will show this to ALL of his girlfriends when he starts dating, warning them that dinner could take some time so they might want to catch a later movie.
So thus begins, The Dinner Drama: Ben and the Corn:

Here he looks peaceful enough. He knew dinner was coming, even if it wasn't his.














Sure enough, he spots Dad's dinner and the tempting corn on the cob. With a point and a polite "Mm?" he asks dad for a bite. After getting permission, he dives in.














Between the two of them, the corn is finished pretty rapidly. This is not good news for Ben, who IMMEDIATELY bursts into tears when his precious food is taken away. Not fake tears, either. He was seriously upset!














He tries to calm the hunger by turning to his own hand to see if any remnants of corn could be found:














Tired of his merciless wailing Dad does what any dad would do and gives him what he wants. Though devoid of actual corn kernels, Ben's finally happy again and all is well.














The End...?
