Lina, the Wise Girl

Lina was a cheerful girl who loved to play with her friends. One sunny morning, her mother said, "Lina, don't go into the forest alone! It's easy to get lost!" Lina nodded and promised to listen. Her friends, Tim and Sara, said, "Come on, Lina! Let's explore the forest!" But Lina replied, "No, I must stay safe!"

The forest was dark and leafy, with tall trees and winding paths. Her friends decided to go in without her. "We'll be fine!" Tim shouted back. Lena stood at the edge, watching them giggle and disappear among the trees. Inside, her heart raced with worry.

As the sun moved high in the sky, Lina felt uneasy. She heard whispers of the wind and the rustling leaves. "I wonder if they're okay?" she thought. Lina remembered her mother’s words. She decided to look for the grown-ups nearby. “They will know how to help,” she said to herself.

Soon, she found a group of adults. "My friends went into the forest! They didn’t listen!" Lina exclaimed. The adults gathered around her, looking serious. "We must go find them!" one man said. Lina felt a small spark of bravery. Her heart raced but she stayed calm.
