Stories about fox Liza and wolf Alex
Story 7. Under the old oak-tree
The day was over. Animals came back to their houses.
Liza was standing in front of the mirror and choosing a hair bow.
She wanted to look like a real princess this evening. She couldn’t choose between the white and the pink hair bows.
In the meantime, Alex didn’t have any doubts that he was perfect with his black bow-tie. Alex was ready to meet Liza.
After sunset he was under the old oak-tree. Alex waited for the cute small fox.
Liza was ready to go. Suddenly Valery came to her.
“Where are you going?” Valery asked.
“I want to go for a walk.”
“Alone?”
“Yes, I want to walk alone.”
“I know, you are going to meet with this wolf. I have told you already, he is dangerous. He is a big wolf with big fangs and claws! He is very strong! He can hurt you!” Valery was very emotional, when she was saying that.
“No, Alex is different!”
“You can do whatever you want, dear Liza. But I warned you!”
Valery went away and Liza ran to the river quickly.
When she saw Alex under the old oak-tree, he was sitting and smiling. His big fangs were shining in the darkness.
She remembered Valery’s words about wolves and the danger. Liza got scared and ran away.
