The hare and tortoise were good friends, but the hare always teased the tortoise for being slow. One day, they decide to visit the town on the other side of the city. The only way to reach that town was to cross it by boat. The hare told the tortoise, “You better be early or else I will have to leave you behind.” Though it rained heavily through the night, the tortoise got up early to make sure he catches the early morning boat. The hare kept snuggling under his warm blanket and by the time he got up, he realised he was two hours late! While the hare missed out on the fun outing, the tortoise walked through the town’s lanes at his pace, enjoyed his day and returned home by boat in the evening after having a great time.
