"Hey Daniel!" he cried, ""I brought you a quarter of the loaf of
bread as I promised!" But no answer was heard. Feivel entered.
The picture that was revealed before his eyes was odd and scary
at the same time: Daniel, his parents and his two sisters were
laying in their beds, pale as the sheets they were covered with.
"What is going on here?" stuttered Feivel, as the portion of
bread nearly dropped out of his hand from astonishment.
Daniel sat up in his bed: "Feivel," his voice hoarse, "your bread
saves us. Exactly one moment ago my father gave us cyanide,
poison, in order to die with respect, and not fall as prey to the
claws of hunger. We have no hope left. Fortunately we have not
yet managed to swallow the poisonous potion."
"But I promised you!" yelled Feivel astounded.
"I did not expect you to keep your promise," Daniel twisted his
broken lips into a smile, "after all everyone takes care of himself
and his family now! This is a necessity that shall not be
condemned. But you came and saved us!"
