One summer day, the sun shone just as bright as it did. But today was going to be different. It had been 3 long, exhausting, and hot weeks. The sun was happy that he could shine for 12 hours sometimes even more, this however made Moon angry, she didn’t get that much time to shine!
She wanted to spend just as much time, if not more under the spotlight. Moon was very good friends with the clouds, so that one day she got so tired of Sun that she decided to come up with a scheme to stop Sun from shining.
Moon asked cloud to come and when he came, she said to him
“Cloud, I know you don’t like Sun just as much as I do, I am tired of Sun always having the spotlight, I think it is time he stops shining for a day, we have done nothing for the past 23 days, it is time we do something about this cloud.”
Cloud thought for a moment, he didn’t like Sun but it would be wrong to team up with Moon against Sun.
“But what can we do, Moon?” Cloud asked, wondering what Moon had in mind.
“We can steal Sun’s spotlight! We can also ask Storm to join us, it will be marvellous to see the look on Sun’s face when he sees that it’s not sunny anymore.” She replied, grinning widely, thinking of the mischief she and her friends would cause.
Cloud spaced out again, thinking deeply about whether or not to accept Moon’s offer.
Cloud hesitantly replied, “Sure, I’ll let Storm know today.”
Moon pleasantly replied, “Great, we’re doing it tomorrow at 7: AM”
So, Cloud went to Storm and told her about Moon’s plan. Storm excitedly agreed. At exactly 6: 49 AM, Moon wandered over to Cloud’s house to see if he were awake yet, and there he was, sitting at his kitchen counter with Storm, sitting on the other end, the two of them were drinking coffee, so that they would have energy for the event of the following day.
“Oh, hey Moon,Want some coffee?” asked Cloud, turning his gaze towards Moon, who had just entered.
“Thank you Cloud, I already had some.” Replied Moon, taking an empty seat next to Storm.
“Cloud and I are finished, it’s 6:54 AM, we should get going.” Said Storm, after taking the last sip of her Coffee.
So, Storm, Moon and Cloud made their way to the stage, where Sun was shining ever-so bright. Cloud went near Sun first, covering him. Sun looked furious!
He felt like ripping Cloud apart and throwing him down. Then Moon ran, shining even brighter than Sun! Moon shone so bright that You could see her shine from outside the galaxy. Then, to add to the mood, Storm came, creating thunder and lighting. She sparked ever-so loudly, like no one had ever heard her before. That day, the three friends had the most fun they ever had, in 3 long, exhausting, and hot days.
