When Teddy wanted to go to paintings, he could take the toolbox, wear the hat, sit in the automobile with the pinnacle and Rubik's dice inside the toy case on one seat of the car and journey until he were given to the location he was going. He would cautiously select the area he could take a seat on the whole day and paintings on the client's footwear. When there has been no work, he would twist and flip the Rubik's dice until all the multicolored squares have been well ordered and all of the squares on each face have been of the identical shade. He changed into regularly thrilled to get it all right. "Wow!" He could scream with pleasure. The pinnacle was also a lovely toy.

He could not smile-due to the reality that his face became constant and his expression unchangeable.

At work that day, he had more customers than ordinary. Little kids smiled at him as they passed by means of. Squirrels too watched him work.

There are instances I feel tired or sad or simple overworked. But my smiling face confuses every person. They cannot see something but my happy face-happy to take on more work!
