My parent has a tool.
The tool can make an image.
The tool is very valuable.
I want to use the tool.
But, my parent does not want this.
I wait, I wait, I wait.
At this time, my parent is not watching. I go to the tool. I want to come to have the tool.
But the tool is big! My hands are small.
The tool goes down. Destruction, oh!
