Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, climb and run. But their favorite thing was the slide. The slide was big and shiny. It made them go fast.
One day, they went to the park with their moms. Their moms said, "Be careful on the slide. Don't go too fast. Wait for your turn. And listen to us."
Lily and Max were obedient. They nodded and said, "Yes, mom." They waited for their turn on the slide. They did not push or shout. They smiled and said, "Thank you" to the other kids.
But when it was their turn, they had a naughty idea. They decided to go on the slide together. They thought it would be more fun. They thought they would go faster. They did not tell their moms.
They climbed up the ladder. They sat on the slide. They held hands. They said, "Ready, set, go!" They pushed off. They speed down the slide.
But they did not know that the slide was wet. It had rained the night before. The slide was slippery. They could not stop. They speed off the slide. They flew in the air. They landed on the grass. They rolled and tumbled. They got dirty and wet.
They were not hurt. But they were scared. And they were sorry. They looked at their moms. Their moms looked at them. Their moms were not happy. They were angry.
They ran to their moms. They hugged them. They said, "We're sorry, mom. We were bad. We did not listen. We won't do it again."
Their moms hugged them back. They said, "We're glad you're okay. But you were naughty. You could have been hurt. You have to listen. You have to be careful. You have to be obedient."
Lily and Max nodded. They said, "Yes, mom. We understand. We love you, mom."
Their moms said, "We love you too. But now you have to go home. You have to take a bath. You have to change your clothes. And you have to say sorry to the other kids."
Lily and Max said, "Okay, mom. We will do that." They said goodbye to the other kids. They said sorry to them. They got in their cars. They went home.
They learned their lesson. They did not go on the slide together again. They were obedient. They were careful. They were happy.
