The Greedy Boy by Tom Lau

Once upon a time, there was a witch. She loved to make her own vanishing paint in her store. She was selling them for $1000 per pail, but nobody bought any.

One day, a boy went to her store. He saw the hardworking witch mixing the vanishing paint. He wanted to buy some but he had no money. Then when the witch went to the toilet, he stole the vanishing paint. An ice-cream cone was on the floor. During the boy ran away, he was careless. He stepped on the ice-cream and he fell down. The vanishing paint splashed to his parents and they disappeared. They were screaming and the boy could hear their voices.

The boy's parents still disappeared the day after. Finally, they went to the hospital.
