Lala had been feeling a little down lately. Her usual spark seemed dimmer, and her playful energy had slowed. She would sit by the window for hours, quietly watching the wind sway the trees, her mind lost in quiet thoughts. Even her favorite snacks didn’t make her jump with joy the way they used to. Something was missing—but she wasn’t alone for long.
Bon and Ni, her two best friends, noticed the change right away. They didn’t need Lala to say anything—true friends always feel it in their hearts. One morning, without warning, they arrived at her door with the biggest smiles, carrying a basket of silly hats, her favorite fruit juice, and a plan to turn her gloomy day around.
“Let’s go outside!” Bon said, gently tugging her paw. Ni added with a giggle, “We’re not letting you mope today!”
Lala hesitated at first, but the warmth in their voices melted her worries. Soon, the three were running barefoot in the grass, playing silly games and laughing until their stomachs hurt. Bon did a funny dance that made Lala giggle uncontrollably, while Ni picked wildflowers and made a crown just for her.
Later, they sat under a tree, sharing snacks and stories. Bon leaned on one side of Lala, and Ni snuggled on the other. It was quiet, peaceful, and full of love.
“I feel… lighter,” Lala whispered with a small smile. “Like the clouds inside me are finally drifting away.”
Bon squeezed her hand. “That’s what friends are for. We’re always here, rain or shine.”
From that day on, things started to feel different for Lala. The world seemed a bit brighter, her steps a little bouncier, and her heart more open.
With Bon and Ni by her side, Lala wasn’t just happier—she was full of hope again. And that made all the difference.
