The Careless Clown

I have a friend. His


name is Lemon. He is a
clown. He is a careless
clown. I always
watched his shows. He
always ends up with
torn jackets, socks, and
pants.
“Friend, take care of
your things.” I usually
tell him. So Lemon
bought a sewing
machine. Every time
his clothes got torn, he
sewed them with his
machine. His clothes
were full of stitches.
The day before
Lemon’s birthday, we
had a meeting. We
wanted to thank him for
making us happy by
giving him a party. We
were worried about
what Lemon would
wear to the party.
“Dress like anyone
else,” one friend said.
“You will elegant in a
suit, another friend
added. “What will I
wear?” he asked me.
So we went to his
house and opened his
cabinet.
“This is awful.” Your
clothes are full of
stitches,” I said. “But I
don’t have clothes to
wear, he said. “These
clothes will be just fine,”
he added.
At the party, our
friends were surprised
to see Lemon. The
hero of the show was in
his old clown suit, full of
stitches.
The next day, Lemon
asked me to go with
him. We went to a store
selling suits. He bought
suit. “This time I will
take care of this suit,”
he promised.
