Katie and her friend Julie decided to walk home after their classes. The weather was very hot for that was the peak of dry season. Having walked about ten poles, both friends decided to follow the bush path which appears to be shorter than the main road.
Just as they were about to approach the village square Katie heard an awry sound close to a palm tree. She stopped but her friend Julie continued walking. And having taken about three steps and realised that her friend wasn't following her she stopped and wanted to call her out but Katie gave her a sign not to talk. She almost tiptoed backwards to her friend.
Then Katie pointed towards the palm tree and whispered to her friend to listen. Yet Julie could not hear anything. Both friends summoned courage and went closer to tht palm tree. And right there before then were beavers ruminating over some palm fruits that dropped from the tree. They gave the beavers some hot chase and they raced away.
Both friends laughed heartily and retraced their steps back to the bush path. "You need an ear brush Julie. So you didn't hear those animals making some strange sound?" "No, I didn't", Julie responded. And with that they resumed their chitchat while walking home.
