No 22. Sunny the Goldfish

No 22. Sunny the Goldfish

In a small fish tank, in the corner of a little girl's bedroom, lived a beautiful goldfish named Sunny. Sunny had lived in the tank for as long as he could remember, and while he enjoyed swimming around and exploring his little world, he couldn't help but wonder what life was like outside of his tank.

One day, while the little girl was at school, Sunny noticed that the lid of his tank was slightly ajar. He had never seen this before, and curiosity got the best of him. He swam up to the top of the tank and jumped out, landing on the carpet below.

Sunny couldn't believe it – he was out of the tank and free to explore the world! He flopped around for a few moments, trying to get his bearings, and then he started to explore. He slithered under the bed, slid over the dresser, and even managed to jump up onto the windowsill.

As he looked out the window, Sunny saw a world that was entirely new to him. He saw trees swaying in the breeze, birds flying through the sky, and cars zooming down the road. He was amazed and thrilled by everything he saw.

However, Sunny soon realized that life outside the tank was not as easy as he thought. He struggled to breathe, and his skin began to dry out. He became scared and started to miss his safe, familiar tank.

Just as Sunny was about to give up hope, the little girl came home from school and found him lying on the windowsill. She quickly scooped him up and put him back in his tank. Sunny was relieved to be back in the comfort of his tank, but he also felt a sense of accomplishment. He had explored the world outside his tank, and while it was a scary and challenging experience, he knew that he was capable of handling it.

From that day on, Sunny appreciated his life in the tank even more. He still dreamed of exploring the world outside, but he knew that he needed to be patient and wait for the right opportunity to come along. In the meantime, he was happy to swim around and enjoy his peaceful life in the little girl's bedroom.
