The Lazy Pig
“HEY! don’t drop the sticks!” the eldest pig shouted! “Sorry,” the youngest pig answered.
While the eldest and youngest pigs worked together, the middle pig played around in the mud. “Why don’t you come and help us?” said the eldest pig. “No, I don’t want to help!” oinked the middle pig. “Okay then, you can make your own house and cook your own food if you won’t help us.” “Whatever!” the middle pig whispered while he rolled his eyes.
The sun set and it became colder outside. The eldest and youngest pigs were having dinner in the warm house they built for themselves. The two pigs heard a knock on the door and heard the middle pig say, “Can you let me in please? I am cold!” The middle pig said. “No!” the eldest pig said and continued to
eat.
The middle pig kept knocking on the door. This time, the youngest pig opened the door. “Can I come in now please?” the middle pig asked again. “No, you did not help us and so you cannot come in” answered the youngest pig.
The middle pig sat outside the house in the cold and was sad. He was very sorry for not listening to his brothers.
Knock, knock! The eldest pig opened the door and saw the middle pig holding some food in its mouth.
The middle pig was sorry and said, “I’m sorry for not helping, can you please let me in, I promise I will help you next time.” The eldest pig felt sorry and said in a loving voice, “Okay you can come inside. Together they ate and laughed.
