Doctor Porcupine bustled about the room, his quills gently rattling as he organized his medical kit. Today promised to be busy, with rumors of a mysterious illness spreading through the forest.

He glanced at his reflection in a polished spoon, straightening his little round spectacles and giving himself a determined nod.

Millie the Rabbit, her ears drooping, hopped forward as Doctor Porcupine opened the door. "Good morning, Millie!

What brings you here today?" "Oh Doctor, my nose won't stop twitching and I can't sleep at night," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper.

Doctor Porcupine peered at Millie’s nose, tapping his chin thoughtfully. "Ah, I see!

It seems you have a case of the night jitters. Have you been worrying about anything lately?" "Well, there have been strange noises by the stream at night.

It makes it hard to rest," Millie admitted, glancing nervously at the window.

Doctor Porcupine paused beside a tangle of reeds, listening intently. Suddenly, a soft rustling and a muffled sneeze came from the bushes.

"Who's there?" he called, adjusting his spectacles.

Henry the Hedgehog stepped forward, rubbing his nose. "Sorry for the noise!

I’ve been practicing my flute at night, but I didn’t realize I was disturbing anyone," he confessed. "Ah, mystery solved!

Perhaps you’d like to play for us during the day instead, Henry," Doctor Porcupine suggested, smiling warmly.

"Thank you, Doctor Porcupine. I think I’ll sleep well tonight," Millie said, her ears perked up with relief.

"It’s all in a day’s work," replied Doctor Porcupine, already looking forward to his next adventure in the forest.
