It was a scorching hot sunny day.

Dudu and Themba decided to go to the park.

They bought coldrinks on the way.

Soon they were relaxing on the grass in the shade.

Dudu was drinking red berry cooldrink.

Themba was drinking cream soda cooldrink.

They were enjoying being together.

But their relaxation was disturbed.

They heard loud voices nearby.

It was two kids arguing.

The boy wanted to play soccer.

The girl wanted to swim.

"It's so hot, let's cool down!" said the girl.

The boy was annoyed and began to sulk.

He kicked his soccer ball high into the air.

The ball fell in the direction of Dudu and Themba.

It crashed down, hitting their drinks!

Red and green liquid splashed across Dudu's white shirt.

Themba grabbed the ball, and popped it with his pen knife!

The boy ran up to Dudu and Themba

"I am sorry! I am sorry!" he cried.

Dudu scolded, "You caused this mess with your arguing."

"Being together is more important than the things you DO together," she said.

And the sun smiled.
