“57th story”
First Published: Sep.20.2018
A rich man walked into a fancy restaurant and asked for the best table.
When he sat down, he saw a black woman sitting at the bar.
He didn’t like what he saw. He didn’t like to eat in a beautiful luxury restaurant and see a black woman enjoying the same place that he was. He decided to show her; where her place was and prove to her that she didn’t belong there.
He called the waiter and said: “Everyone will be my guest for dessert, except that black woman.”
The waiter brought the restaurant’s famous chocolate cake to every single person except the black woman.
The black woman walked to the rich man and with a kind smile, said: “Thank you.”
The rich man got angry and called the waiter and said: “Give everyone a glass of wine under my bill except the black woman.”
The waiter did what the rich man asked.
The black woman came to the rich man and politely thanked him again.
The rich man got frustrated and was about to explode, he called the waiter again and said: “Is this black woman crazy? I was trying to teach her a lesson that she doesn’t belong here and she keeps thanking me.”
The waiter said: “Uh, dear sir; she is not crazy. She is the owner of this restaurant and thanked you for your business.”
Loved this!

Thanks Crissy darling ❤️
This was just amazing and such a valuable lesson about judging others based on their appearance. We never know who people are. Powerful and wonderfully written! 😃💕
Means a lot dear. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts ❤️
You’re very welcome! ☺️💕

A most enjoyable story. ❤️
As the bigoted wealthy man gets his comeuppance.
Thanks dear, wish for the better peaceful future.❤️
Haha this is a good one 😊🌸
Thanks Shantanu dear, you’re sweet ❤️
My pleasure always 🌸😊

I am sure that this man felt ashamed after this revelation, at least he would feel discomfort, learning an important lesion in his life. Thank you for sharing, Laleh khanum.
I certainly hope so, some people are so shameless. Thanks Cornelia darling for reading my posts❤️
Very good.
Thanks dear ❤️
You are welcome 🙏
❤️
Loved it Laleh! Just goes to show, never judge a book by the cover. The moment you take the time to explore the content, you just might realize that you judged it wrong!! Lovely post!
Thanks Warren dear, that was a beautiful comment ❤️
You’re welcome!
🙏
This is awesome! The ending is marvellous 🙂 Indeed if we stop judging people by appearances the world would be so much a better place to live in!
I wish. Thanks dear for reading and commenting ❤️

We gotta be very careful with the people we “think” we’re trying to hurt….haha…I could imagine the look on his face after hearing that. What was meant to hurt her, helped her. Thank you, dear Sir…lol.
😂 me too. God is always helping, that’s my belief, thanks darling for your visit ❤️

Ignorance causes barriers. Barriers in grace and wisdom
Nice comment dear thank you.❤️
You are welcome. We can only aspire to greatness if we offer respect for respect
Indeed.❤️🤗
Awesome and funny story! This rich man doesn’t belong to modern life, his mentality is from XVIII or XIX century. It’s pity!
True. Thanks dear friend for reading and commenting ❤️
Thanks so much ❤️

Appreciate your visit ❤️
Beautiful. I kind of thought that would be the punch line after reading the first part where she thanked him. Unfortunately human nature will continue to have prejudices and stereotypes. I’m glad there have been improvements over the years and we all need to still do what we can to improve societies. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for sharing your kind words. I agree we are born equal and no colour or culture should be able to separate us from each other. 🙂
A lesson more people need to learn, we are all equal
