Once upon a time, in a small house, there was a boy named Tim. Tim had a red balloon that he loved very much. One day, he took his red balloon outside to play with it. The wind was blowing, and Tim held his balloon tight, so it would not fly away.
Tim saw his friend, Sue, and they started to play together. Sue said, "Tim, be careful with your balloon, or you might lose it." But Tim did not listen. He let go of the balloon for just a second, and the wind blew it away. Tim was very upset.
Tim and Sue tried to catch the balloon, but it was too late. The wind blew the balloon far, far away, and they could not find it. Tim was sad that he lost his red balloon, and he wished he had listened to Sue.
