Once there was a little girl named Lucy. She was three years old and loved to play. One day, she was playing in the park by herself. She found a big hoop and was excited. She grabbed it and started rolling it around, making it go in circles.
Suddenly, she heard a voice. It was her mother. "Lucy, what are you doing?" her mother asked.
With a nervous smile, Lucy said, "I'm playing with a hoop!"
"That's not yours, Lucy," said her mother. "That hoop belongs to someone else."
Lucy was about to give the hoop back, but then she thought of a great idea. "Mommy, can I keep the hoop? I promise to play with it every day," she said.
Her mother sighed. "Okay, Lucy, but you really should ask for permission before taking things that don't belong to you."
Lucy was so happy, she cheered and jumped up and down. "Thank you, Mommy," she said, giving her a big hug.
From that day on, Lucy and the hoop were great friends. Whenever she had free time, she would grab the hoop and play with it in the park. It was a great way for her to have fun!
