*Oh No! Little Minea Gets Scolded by Mommy Chicken for Stealing Food*
—
**Story:**
It was a bright and sunny morning on the farm, and all the animals were busy with their daily routines. Among them was Minea, a tiny, curious chick who loved exploring every corner of the farmyard. She was a cheerful little bird with soft yellow feathers and bright, twinkling eyes that always seemed full of mischief.
One day, Minea was feeling especially hungry. She looked around and saw a big basket filled with delicious grains and seeds that the farmer had left outside the henhouse. The smell was tempting, and before she knew it, her tiny feet had waddled over to the basket. She couldn’t resist – she gently pecked at the grains and started gobbling them up happily.
But what Minea didn’t realize was that Mommy Chicken, the wise and protective mother hen, had been watching her from a distance. Mommy Chicken loved her little chick very much and always wanted to keep her safe. When she saw Minea sneaking into the food basket, she immediately knew that she had to teach her a lesson.
“Minea!” clucked Mommy Chicken firmly, walking over with a stern look on her face. “You shouldn’t take food that isn’t yours without asking. That’s not polite, and it can cause problems.”
Minea looked up with wide, guilty eyes. She didn’t mean to cause trouble; she was just hungry and curious. “I’m sorry, Mommy Chicken,” she chirped softly. “I was very hungry, and I thought I could just have a little bit.”
Mommy Chicken gently lowered herself to her chick’s level. “I understand you’re hungry, sweetie,” she said kindly. “But stealing food isn’t the right way to handle things. If you’re hungry, you should come to me or the farmer, and I’ll make sure you get something to eat. Stealing can make others upset and cause misunderstandings.”
Minea nodded slowly, realizing her mistake. She felt a little ashamed but also grateful for Mommy Chicken’s gentle words. “I promise I won’t do it again,” she said softly. “Next time, I’ll ask first.”
Mommy Chicken smiled warmly and ruffled her feathers. “That’s my good girl. Remember, honesty and asking for help are always better than taking things without permission. Now, let’s find something healthy to eat together.”
From that day on, Minea learned an important lesson about honesty and asking for help when she was hungry. Mommy Chicken continued to watch over her and teach her right from wrong, making sure her little chick grew up to be kind and respectful.
As the sun set over the farm, Minea snuggled close to Mommy Chicken, feeling happy and safe. She knew that she had learned a valuable lesson and that, with her family’s love and guidance, she would always be okay.
