Mr. Sun plays a Prank

In a far far away land, in the middle of a vast blue ocean there exists an island called the Whoopee island. The island has a long beach with a reef where fishes of all hues live. There are red clown fishes, blue green fishes, fluorescent colored fishes with white darting eyes,angelic fishes, star fishes, yellow mini fishes, slimy jelly fishes and what not. All these fishes swam together as a school of fish visiting the nearby reefs and playing around in the sun.

Here there were three friends Chris, Tina and Remo who were always together. They darted in and out of the plants in the sea, played hide and seek in the ocean and had fun all day long. Their parents often told them to take care of each other and be careful of hurting their delicate fins in the reefs. Chris, Tina and Remo were good kids and listened to their parents. 

One day in December when winter had almost set in and a thin sheet of ice had formed on the ocean, the three of them where feeling very very cold. Remo suggested that they swim up to the sea surface and bask in the sun. Tina & Chris said great idea and decided to make it a picnic. Chris’s mom made the best sandwiches in the reef and he hurriedly went over to pack 4 tiered peanut butter sandwiches along with hot cocoa. The three of them reached the surface and lazed around. The sun’s rays splashed their body with warmth and all of them were happy to be free from the icy chill. Tina said, we should thank Sunny uncle for warming us up. Chris being the loudest of them all, called loudly.. Sunny Uncle, Sunny Uncle.. The sun was deep in slumber and did not wake up. Then Tina & Remo joined Chris and shouted out and this time, Mr Sun did wake up. But he was crossed to be woken up from his deep sleep. Mr Sun frowned and showed his angry freckles.. He threatened the little children that he would go away and then the world will freeze.All of a sudden darkness began to set in and then it seemed like the sun had vanished. Tina, Remo and Chris began to cry and thought that the sun had gone away crossed at them. 

They rushed back home and were worried that they had done terribly wrong. Wondering what to do, they headed to meet the old wise clown fish,Mr Brown. Mr. Brown, assured the kids that all is well and that Mr. Sun would be back by now. The lil fishes were still worried. Mr Brown said, Ok come with me and I shall show you.


The all swam together and then voila, there was the beaming Sun. Mr.  Brown explained that the Sun had gone behind the moon in an eclipse and was back now. Mr. Sun winked and smiled at the lil fishes. He said, ha ha ..that was a small prank. I would never go away and freeze all of you. Its wonderful to be part of your world. 


Tina, Remo and Chris were relieved and swam back home after thanking Mr. Brown. They slept well that night and dreamt of the beauty of the Sun andglorious sunny days at the beach
