River the tiger and Wolfy the wolf were the best of friends, even though they were as different as night and day. River loved the warm sun and spent his days lounging under the big oak tree, while Wolfy enjoyed running through the woods, feeling the cool breeze on his fur. But no matter their differences, they always found time for each other.
One bright morning, River was lying in the grass, staring up at the clouds. Wolfy bounded up to him, his tail wagging.
“River!” he exclaimed. “Want to play?”
River’s eyes lit up. “What should we play today?”
“How about hide and seek?” Wolfy suggested, already bouncing around in excitement.
“That sounds great!” River agreed, jumping to his feet.
Wolfy counted loudly, closing his eyes as River ran off to find a good hiding spot. River, being sneaky, slipped behind the big oak tree where he knew Wolfy wouldn’t find him right away. Wolfy opened his eyes and immediately started searching. His ears perked up as he sniffed the air, but he couldn’t quite catch River’s scent.
After a few minutes, Wolfy called out, “I give up! Where are you, River?”
River popped out from behind the tree, laughing. “Here I am!”
The two friends giggled and decided to play tag next. Wolfy darted around, trying to catch River, but the tiger was too quick. River would zoom past, and Wolfy would chase after him with all his might, their laughter echoing through the forest.
After a while, they grew tired and decided to take a break. River had a wonderful idea. “Let’s color!”
Wolfy’s ears perked up. “Coloring? That sounds fun!”
River pulled out a big piece of paper and a box of crayons. They both sat down, each choosing their favorite colors. River carefully colored in bright oranges and yellows, while Wolfy used his favorite shades of brown and gray to create a picture of the forest.
They spent the afternoon drawing, laughing, and chatting about their day. River and Wolfy realized that no matter what they did—whether it was hide and seek, tag, or coloring—the best part was always being together.
As the sun began to set, casting a warm glow over the landscape, River and Wolfy walked home side by side, their hearts full of happiness. They knew that no matter where life took them, their friendship would always be the greatest adventure.
And so, River and Wolfy’s friendship remained as strong and joyful as ever—a bond that would last forever.
