The mouse, the dream and
the friends
Once upon a time, there
was a small mouse named Miguelito. He was very hungry when he woke up in the
morning and left his hole, which was his home, to find some food. He did not have to go too far and found a nut. He thrusted his big teeth into the shell to
break it. It took him some time, but then the shell cracked and the tasty
inside of the nut lay in front of him.
By then he had become
very hungry and began to eat. However, suddenly he felt a paw on his back and
when he looked back he saw a big mouse. “You don’t want to eat it, do you?
I’m sure, you will give it to me,” said the big mouse with a big grin on his
face. Miguelito knew that he would have no chance in fighting for the nut
because the other mouse was much bigger. So, he got up, asked for pardon and
went away while the big mouse began to eat the tasty inside of the nut.
Miguelito was very sad
and even hungrier. He went back into is hole, laid down and a big tear ran
down his cheek. With an empty stomach but tired, he fell asleep and began to
dream.
First, he dreamt he was a
cat. Proudly he went for a walk and when he saw the big mouse who had stolen
his nut, he chased him.
The mouse jumped over
some branches, under some bushes, but did not have a chance, Miguelito now a
cat, soon caught up with the mouse and held it up in the air by its tail.
However, as he looked at the mouse hanging on its tail and trembling, he felt
a paw on his shoulder. “You don’t really want this mouse, do you? You will
give it to me.” When Miguelito turned around, he saw a very big cat, stepped
back, gave the bigger cat the mouse and ran away very happy to have avoided a
fight with the stronger one. A big tear ran down on Miguelito’s cheek again.
Second, he dreamt of being
a dog. Again proudly, he went for a walk and when he saw the big cat, he
began to chase it. Soon he caught up with the cat and held it up in the air
by its tail. However, just when Miguelito, now a dog, looked at the cat, he
felt a paw on his back. “You don’t want this cat, do you? Give it to me!” A
big dog stood behind him. Miguelito went away and a big tear ran down his
cheek.
Third, he dreamt of being
a bull. Miguelito, now a bull, proudly went for a walk and when he saw the
big dog, he began to chase him. The bull was much faster than the dog and
after a while caught up with him. However, when he held up the dog by its
tail he heard a voice behind him. And when he turned around, he saw a bigger
bull. “You don’t want that dog, do you? Give it to me!” Miguelito went away
and a big tear ran down his cheek.
Then, he dreamt of being an
elephant. Miguelito, now an elephant, proudly went for a walk. He saw the
bull, which was standing by a small river and wanted to drink. Therefore, he
went up to the bull and said, “You don’t want to drink, do you?” and the bull
ran away.
Miguelito, rather
satisfied, went to the river and began to drink. But suddenly he slipped and
fell in. He looked around and saw crocodiles fast swimming towards him.
He tried to get out of the
water, but the shore was very slippery, so he couldn’t get out. By chance a
smaller elephant came around, saw Miguelito in the water and the crocodiles
behind him, quickly held his trunk to Miguelito and pulled him out.
Miguelito had understood
that he needed friends and so he proposed the smaller elephant to stay
together.
When Miguelito, the
mouse, woke up, he thought about his dream and when he left his hole, he met
his neighbour, Carlito. “I’ve had a strange dream,” Carlito began, “I need
friends.”
Miguelito was surprised
but instantly understood that this was his big chance. So he said, “Let’s be
friends and help each other!”
Now proudly, they went
for a walk and when they found a nut, they shared it. However, suddenly they
heard a voice behind them, “Hey, you two! You don’t want to eat that, do you?
Give it to me!” And when they turned around, they saw the big mouse which had
always stolen their nuts so far. But now, Miguelito and Carlito stood up and
resisted the big mouse.
As the big mouse saw that
Miguelito and Carlito together were stronger than him, he proposed to be
friends with them. Like that, they were three already. More and more mice
came to join them and from then on, they never quarrelled again but sat down
to talk and to decide together.
