Beth

Beth’s best friend

            Beth had a python, a scaly, long, slimy python. Every night when she went to sleep, the python would get into her bed, coil up and sleep with her. They were best friends.

            Some days had gone by, and for some reason her python stopped eating. Also when she went to bed, instead, of coiling up the python would stretch out very long. This happened for several days.

            Beth couldn’t understand what was going on. What was wrong with her friend? Was he sick? What should Beth do?

            After several more days of this Beth decided to take her friend to the vet. Afterall that is what best friends do for each other.

            When it was Beth’s turn to see the doctor Beth picked up the cage containing her friend and brought it to the doctor. The doctor ran several test, and came to the conclusion that’s Beth’s pride and joy, Beth’s only friend was starving itself, and sizing Beth up so it could swallow her whole.

            What do you do when your best friend swallows you whole?

            Beth decided to give her friend to the zoo, and then decided to buy herself a goldfish.
