 "Don't cry wolf because when it really happens nobody will believe you"

Once upon a time in hickeytown there was a girl named Becky. She was a very tall and skinny brunette, who craved way too much attention. She was the type of girl who never thought before she acted. One day this got her into a heap of trouble.

Becky had a tendency to call 911 when not needed. Once she called and told the police that she saw two guys running down the street with knifes. The police would ask her questions and she wouldn’t give quick answers. They were taking hints that she was lying. They would come anyways though, but when they got there they realized nothing was really wrong after all. There was another time where Becky called the police and told them that somebody had stolen many items from her house. And once again the police showed up and found out nothing was wrong.

One day Becky went walking through the woods to talk to the Tree of Wisdom. He was very tall and everyone would say his leaves could touch the sky. The Tree of Wisdom was someone everyone in town would go to for advice. He told Becky not to falsely call the police because it could end in consequences. She didn’t take his advice though.

The next day Becky was sitting on the couch watching television and all of a sudden she heard a “CRASH”! A window had broken in the kitchen. Becky was too scared to even move from the couch, but before she knew it a guy wearing all black with a green colored mask on came around the corner. Becky ran upstairs to get the phone so she could call 911. She went straight to her room and locked the door. When the operator answered the phone, Becky told her what was going on. The operator transferred her to the local police station. The officer listened to what Becky had to say, but didn’t believe her. So, she hung up the phone and quickly jumped from her window and ran towards the woods.

When she finally had gotten to the Tree of Wisdom, she explained to him what had happened. He knew that this day would come, so he already knew what to say. “Don’t cry wolf because when it really happens nobody will believe you”.
