It was a warm sunset-lit evening in Australia, and over in toddler Furaha and Orko’s house, which they shared with their parents Kiburi and Ua and their puppy Rocky, it was time to wind down after a long day of playing and having fun outside. Orko thought so when he saw the sky change from its afternoon hues of blue to a beautiful pink and yellow, as if it were rubbing its eyes and saying goodnight.
Orko and toddler Furaha settled on the sofa in their cosy house with no TV on (it’s what Orko recommended for that night) and a warm unicorn nightlight on. Orko got out a selection of yummy crisps and chocolates from the cupboard and shared them with his little sister. The crisps tasted very crunchy and cheesy, while the chocolate had just the right amount of caramel and were shaped like koalas. Orko liked to make the little koalas talk in high pitched Australian voices, and then make them scream in pain whenever Furaha ate them. It was just for fun. After they’ve finished their crunchy, caramelly meal, Orko got out his two snake puppets and entertained his sister by making them friendly and making them speak in hissy, sly voices. They told Furaha they were deadly and came from the Outback, but they didn’t mean any harm actually. They kissed and hugged Furaha, and Orko made them slither round her body, tickling her and making her wiggle with delight.
Instantly, Furaha felt a bit tired. Orko looked out of the window. The sun was slowly setting over their neighbourhood, so he decided to take her upstairs to bed. He switched off the unicorn light and carried her upstairs, settling her in bed and snuggling with her. Soon, they were both asleep.
