The breeze gently blows, and the moonlight softly shines into the small room. Dudu and his sister are lying on the little bed, sound asleep…
“What a beautiful night, let’s have a moonlight party!” A voice broke the silence of the night. Oh, it was Miss Banana speaking.
“Yes!” The fruits cheered and lined up to jump out of the fruit basket.
“Let’s introduce ourselves first!” Miss Banana sang, “My name is Banana, sweet in taste, curved in shape, like a crescent moon…”
“That’s so nice!” The fruits said one after another.
Next up were Miss Watermelon and Mr. Orange.
The big Miss Watermelon said, “I am a juicy and sweet watermelon, a great choice to quench thirst and cool off!”
“My name is Orange, my taste is sweet and tangy!” Mr. Orange said as he jumped onto Miss Watermelon’s head. Miss Watermelon took a step, and Mr. Orange wobbled. They were performing acrobatics!
“How wonderful!” Everyone clapped their hands.
“So noisy!” A spiky fellow jumped out of the fruit basket, impatiently saying.
“Who is this spiky gentleman, are you a cactus?” Miss Banana asked.
“I am not a cactus! I hate parties!” The spiky gentleman said angrily.
At this moment, Dudu crawled out from under the table and said, “Let me tell you, this is Mr. Pineapple.”
“Dudu, why aren’t you asleep?” The fruits asked in surprise.
“I got up to go to the bathroom, and I saw you having a party. I didn’t want to disturb you, so I kept quiet.” Dudu said with a smile.
Dudu quietly asked Mr. Pineapple, “Why don’t you like parties?”
Mr. Pineapple, looking forlorn, said, “Watermelon is delicious, strawberries are beautiful. But me, I am covered in spikes and taste sour, surely no one likes me…”
“Mr. Pineapple, do you dislike parties because you feel you’re not good enough?”
Mr. Pineapple nodded.
“I have an idea.” Dudu ran to the kitchen and brought back a basin of saltwater.
Mr. Pineapple, puzzled, asked, “What’s this?”
“I am saltwater. Mr. Pineapple, if you soak in my embrace for half an hour, you’ll become sweet and tangy.” Saltwater said with a smile, “Mr. Pineapple, your flesh is rich in vitamin C, I admire you very much!”
“Thank you so much!” Mr. Pineapple smiled.
The fruits all clapped their hands. Then, everyone held hands, dancing and singing…
The next day, Dudu told his parents and sister about the fruits having a party.
His parents smiled and said, “You must have been dreaming.”
His sister believed Dudu and pouted, “Brother, I really want to see the fruits’ party. Next time, you must wake me up!”
