monster bedtime story: The Monster Outside the Window
It was dark, and Little Pig Flower had gone to bed early, but she couldn’t fall asleep. Perhaps it was because she had spent the whole day watching TV, especially a cartoon about a black monster.
It was unusually quiet outside, quieter than ever before. Little Pig Flower stuck her head out the window and looked outside; it was pitch black. Suddenly, she heard a “thud” sound. What could that be? Could it be the black monster?
The more Little Pig Flower thought about it, the more scared she became. Without even putting on her shoes, she ran towards Pig Fatty’s house nearby.
Seeing Little Pig Flower in such a state, Pig Fatty asked, “Why did you come out without your shoes?”
“There’s a black monster outside my window. I was so scared I didn’t have time to put on my shoes!” said Little Pig Flower.
“There are no black monsters in this world! Don’t be scared, I’ll go back with you. If there really is a black monster, I can catch him with one hand!” Pig Fatty said.
Pig Fatty accompanied Little Pig Flower back home and closed the window. “Don’t be afraid, there’s no black monster!”
Just as Pig Fatty finished speaking, a “thud” sound came from outside the window! Pig Fatty was terrified and grabbed Little Pig Flower, running away: “There really is a black monster, run!”
They ran as fast as they could, Pig Fatty panting heavily, even losing his shoes in the process.
“I thought you were brave enough to catch the black monster, but it turns out you’re just as scared.”
“Right, I’ve heard that Pig Skinny has a magic bottle that can catch the black monster.”
They ran to Pig Skinny’s house, who was still groggy from sleep. Upon hearing about the black monster, he immediately perked up: “Haha, perfect chance to test my magic bottle.”
When they arrived at Little Pig Flower’s house, Pig Skinny gathered his courage, opened the window, and placed the bottle on the windowsill. He opened the bottle’s stopper and said, “If the black monster dares to come, I’ll catch it!”
Everyone perked up their ears and listened, but after a long time, there was no sound.
“Looks like the black monster doesn’t dare to come,” Pig Skinny said proudly. Just as he finished speaking, a “thud” sound came from outside the window. He quickly sealed the bottle’s stopper and said confidently, “I’ve caught the black monster, we can sleep peacefully now!”
At that moment, another series of “thud” sounds came from outside…
Everyone bolted outside.
“Looks like the magic bottle is useless! Let’s go to Pig Timid’s house, I’ve heard he has a magic bag!” Pig Skinny said.
After finding Pig Timid and returning to Little Pig Flower’s house, everyone was so tired and sleepy that they soon fell asleep.
When morning came, they woke up and realized that the black monster was actually just the sound of starfruits falling from the starfruit tree outside the window, hitting the ground with a “thud.”
