Yesterday's Discussion
Today, Tree Hugger and Byron are once again walking together in the forest that they were both in yesterday. "Nice day, today," Tree Hugger said, "Don't you think so, Byron? "Right there to agree with you, Tree Hugger," Byron said.
Yesterday, they had to deal with a rogue cockatrice that had the pleasure to turn animals in its sight into stone. "Hey, Tree Hugger," Byron said. "Yes?" Tree Hugger replied. "Sorry about what happened to you back there," Byron said, "You saved me from that cockatrice by letting it turn you into stone. Why did your risk your own life?"
"Silly, Byron," tree Hugger answered with a smile, "Because you're my friend, Byron. I can't let that thing turn you into stone." "Well," Byron said, "You know that was dangerous. And thanks." "I know," Tree Hugger smiled.
"But still," Byron went on until Tree Hugger hushed him. "Please, no more," Tree Hugger said. "All right," Byron said, "Still, I couldn't let that cockatrice run wild in these woods." "So you tried to do something about it yourself?" Tree Hugger asked. "Yes," Byron answered.
Byron then explained that a mysterious pony entered the forest in a flash of bright light and drove the cockatrice away. "And the pony undid what the cockatrice had done," Byron concluded, "I tried to introduce you to this pony, but it was gone by the time you've returned to normal."
"I see," Tree Hugger said, "Well, I'm glad that you're all right now." "You too," Byron said. "Then maybe we can see this pony again soon," Tree Hugger said. "Hopefully," Byron said, "But now, let's just enjoy our time here together like friends."
"Yes, let's," Tree Hugger replied, "Let's enjoy our time here together now." "Right there to agree with you," Byron said.
So, the two friends remained in the forest for the rest of the day until the sun went down. At that time, they both returned to their homes.
