Solution
I was lazily drinking my morning milk. I do not like milk at all. I have been advised by the doctor to drink a glass of milk daily. Sipping the milk slowly, I started daydreaming. I found myself in a grand palace. I was the king of an unknown land. I was seated on my throne sipping a drink and giving out orders. My subordinates appeared to be scared of me. They were doing as they were told. A young man was not obeying my orders. I warned him but he ignored me. In a fit of an angel, I threw my drink at him. This act brought me back to reality. My father was shouting at me for throwing my glass of milk at him. I told him what I was dreaming. We had a hearty laugh.
