Once upon a time, there was a pirate. He had a big hat and a long, black coat. One sunny day, the pirate found a big ice cream cone. It was his favorite, chocolate flavor. He was so happy!
But the sun was very hot. The pirate's ice cream started to melt. It dripped down his hand and made a big mess. The pirate felt embarrassed. He didn't want his friends to see him with a messy ice cream.
So, the pirate ran to find some shade under a tree. He ate his ice cream very fast, so it wouldn't melt anymore. Then, he cleaned his hand and his coat. Now, the pirate was not embarrassed. He smiled and went back to play with his friends.
