Write a funny, 4-paragraph short story about a boy and a fish from the perspective of a taxi driver.

Well folks, buckle up because I got a fish story for you. So, this kid jumps in the back of my cab, holding a fish bowl with a small fish swimming in it. I asked him, "Boy, what's the matter with the fish? A different kinda fish or something?" And he says, "Nah, man. I won him at the carnival." I couldn't help but chuckle at the thought that he probably had a better chance of winning the lottery than keeping that fish alive for more than a day.

But this kid was determined to keep his trophy alive, so he tells me to step on it and take him to the pet store. We arrive, and I dropped him off at the front door. The kid hops out, leaving the fish in the back seat. I'm heading to my parking spot wondering what kind of trouble this kid is getting himself into when all of a sudden, I hear a flopping noise. I turned around and saw that the fish had somehow jumped out of the bowl and was rolling on the floor of my cab.

I start to panic, trying to keep control of the car and stay calm. Getting into an accident would just make everything worse. I pull into the closest parking spot and turn around to help the fish. The boy returns from the store, sees the commotion, and jumps back to rescue the fish. He picks it up and puts it back in the bowl but accidentally spills half the water all over the seats. I couldn't believe it, but all I could do was smile and hand the boy a towel to clean up the mess.

Eventually, we took the fish to one of the pet stores, and the boy came out with a proper aquarium and all the supplies he needed to keep his new friend alive. And I ended up with a funny story for my fellow cabbies. The moral of the story? Keep your eyes on the road because you never know when a fish might decide to ride.
