Oh no! Part 2

"I have a brilliant idea," exclaimed Owen. "Let's go get a bicycle pump!"

It really was a brilliant idea until they realized..

'HOW ON EARTH WERE THEY GOING TO GET TO THE SHOP TO GET A BICYCLE PUMP?'

Think, think, think.

And think again.

"Looks like both of us will have to ride on your bicycle, Ada," said Owen. He hopped on to the back seat.

Ada stood with her mouth slightly opened. She didn't think she was strong enough to give her friend, who was about the size of a baby kangaroo, a ride on her bicycle.

"I don't think I can, " whispered Ada.

"If you think you can, you can, Ada! Just like the little engine who think he could, remember?" Owen replied.

"Oooh.." quivered Ada. "Ok, I'm gonna give it a try."

"Just don't go too fast," Owen managed to say before Ada started pedaling.

With a huff and a puff, just like a little engine, Ada pedaled away with her friend, who was almost the size of a kangaroo, behind.

They cycled passed a star-shaped pond (where a mermaid swam), across a wobbly wooden bridge (where a troll slept under it) and over a fresh meadow (where three billy goats grazed). All was well until...

..they came to a high hill. A hill so high that even Jack and Jill couldn't climb to fetch a pail of water. Luckily, Owen and Ada were stronger.They were also smart kids because they never had an ounce of coffee in their life.

They pushed the bicycle uphill and stopped at the top.

Seeing that Ada was exhausted, Owen decided that it was time for him to cycle and let Ada be the pillion rider.

Wheeeeeeeeeee........down they went, in a super-fast way.

And there they were at the shop which sells bicycle pumps, nuts and bolts, screw drivers and drills. They chose a cylindrical silver pump (it was hard to decide as there were hundreds of them, all lined up according to colours and shapes) and started the journey back home.

They took the same route, in reverse order - up the hill, down the hill (where they waved bye bye to Jack and Jill), over the meadow (where the billy goats were then sleeping), across the rickety bridge (where the troll said,"hello") and passed the heart-shape pond (where the mermaid sang a strange tune.)

They pumped up the tyre with lots of air and decided to call it a day.

"We should just take a taxi next time," Ada said just before waving bye-bye to Owen.

The End.
