    Once upon a time, in a bustling city filled with skyscrapers and dazzling lights, lived a kind-hearted boy named David. David was rather small for his age, but his heart was filled with courage and determination.

    David lived with his loving family in a small apartment, surrounded by tall buildings that stood like giants against the bright city sky. David loved his family more than anything else in the world.

    Across town, there was a notorious bully named Goliath. Goliath was a towering figure who loved to pick on the smaller kids and had a particular interest in David.

    One day, Goliath challenged David to a game of basketball at the city park. The park was crowded, and the news of the challenge had spread like wildfire.

    David was nervous but determined. He knew he was smaller and less experienced, but he also knew that it wasn’t size that mattered, but heart.

    Goliath, taken aback by David's courage, became more aggressive. Yet David remained calm, focusing on the game and not on Goliath’s intimidating tactics.
