    Once upon a time, in a lush green farm, lived a caring mother hen named Henny. Henny was known for her beautiful red comb and her soft, golden feathers.

    One day, Henny laid a tiny, speckled egg. She was overjoyed and immediately started to prepare for the arrival of her little one.

    After several days of patiently waiting, the egg finally cracked open, and out came a tiny, adorable chick named Chicky.

    Henny loved Chicky dearly. She would peck around the farm, teaching Chicky how to find the tastiest grains and stay safe from the farm cat.

    Chicky was a curious little bird. He loved exploring the farm, but he was a bit afraid of venturing too far from Henny.

    One day, a shiny red apple fell from a tree. Chicky wanted to peck at it but it was too far from Henny. He was hesitant.

    Seeing Chicky's hesitation, Henny encouraged him, "Chicky, you're brave. Remember, I'm always here for you."

    One day, a thunderstorm rolled in. The winds howled and Chicky was scared. He ran to Henny, seeking her comfort.

    One day, Chicky saw a cat lurking around. Remembering Henny's lessons, he ran back to her, warning her about the danger.
