    Once upon a time, in a small cheerful mouse hole, lived a little mouse named Molly. Molly was a happy little mouse who loved to play and laugh with her friends. But today, she was unhappy.

    The reason for her sadness was that her parents had decided to separate. It was a difficult concept for a young mouse like Molly to understand. That day, she was alone in her small corner, looking down.

    She overheard her parents talking about the separation. She heard the words like 'new homes' and 'individual lives'. This made her feel sad, anxious, and confused at the same time.

    Her mother noticed Molly's unhappy state. After informing Molly's father, she walked towards Molly, determined to comfort her daughter. Molly's mother was kind and understanding, always there for her.

    "Why so glum, my little one?" she asked softly, settling down beside Molly. She gently stroked Molly's head, trying to make her feel relaxed. But her words only made Molly cry.

    Seeing her tears, Molly's mother hugged her tightly. "I understand, Molly," she said. "It's confusing and scary. But we both love you very much, that will never change."

    "But why are you separating then?" asked Molly, trying her best to understand. Her eyes were huge and full of questions, her heart burdened with sadness.

    "Sometimes Molly, people need to be apart to get along better. Your father and I need some space. But remember, we will always be there for you," her mother answered gently.

    Molly tried to smile, understanding her mother's words. It was not easy for her, but she trusted her mother. That night, Molly went to sleep in her mother's arms.

    The next day, Molly woke up feeling a bit better. Her heart felt lighter. She looked at her mother sleeping peacefully next to her and felt a surge of love.

    Molly started to understand that even though her parents would be living separately, they would always be there for her. With this new realisation, Molly felt a little less sad.

    In the days that followed, Molly's mother tried to keep the routine normal. They played games, read stories, and even had cheese parties, Molly's favourite.

    Days turned into weeks, and slowly, Molly started to adapt to the changes. Her smile returned, and she began to laugh and play with her friends once again.

    Molly's father visited every often, sometimes bringing her favourite cheese or new toys. He often played games with her, making sure she was happy and comfortable.

    Molly's mother and father explained that they would always be a family and that their love for her would never change. They told her that change can often lead to better things.

    Her parents' love and support helped Molly cope with the changes. As weeks turned into months, Molly became stronger and more understanding. She was no longer the sad little mouse.

    One day, Molly's father introduced her to his new home. It was a cozy little mouse hole just around the corner. Molly was excited, it felt like an adventure.

    Molly now had two homes. She would spend some days with her mother and some with her father. Though it was different, Molly started to enjoy it.

    She decorated her room in her father's house with her favourite toys and drawings. At her mother's house, they created a special snack corner filled with Molly's favourite cheese.

    Molly began to understand that while her parents loved each other, they were happier living apart. This understanding made Molly accept the changes more easily.

    Over time, Molly realized change was a part of life. Not all change was bad, and with love and understanding, one could overcome any challenges life threw their way.

    Molly was not a sad little mouse anymore. She was a happy, understanding, and adaptable mouse who loved both her parents and her life unconditionally.

    Understanding that her journey was unique, Molly became more open to new experiences and lessons. She grew stronger with every hurdle and less afraid of the future.

    The love and support of her parents played a crucial role in helping Molly adapt to the changes. Their constant reassurance and presence made Molly feel loved and safe.

    Molly learned that even in difficult times, happy moments can be created. She cherished every moment she spent with her mother and her father, enjoying their special times together.

    The days of the sad little mouse were gone. Molly was now a happy little mouse who had learned a valuable lesson that change isn't always bad, and love is constant.
