Squeaky loved silly tricks. He hid behind cups, wiggled cheese, and squeaked loudly to startle friends. Each time he laughed, 'Got you!' while his whiskers danced with joy.

One sunny day, Mina the Mole was busy in the garden. With soft paws she piled warm sand to build a tiny, cozy house just her size.

She patted smooth walls and gently laid a shiny green leaf on top for the roof. It was her best sand house ever, and she smiled proudly.

Squeaky tiptoed like a shadow. He crept up, took a big breath, and shouted, 'BOO!' right behind Mina's back, thinking it would be funny.

Mina jumped so high the sandy house tumbled down. Walls crumbled, and the pretty leaf roof tore right in two on the ground.

Mina's eyes filled with tears as she stared at the broken house. 'My house…' she whispered, her voice tiny and shaky.

Squeaky began to giggle, then saw her drooping face. No smiles—only hurt. 'I… I was just joking,' he mumbled, feeling confused.

'It wasn't funny to me,' Mina said, wiping tears away. Squeaky's tummy felt heavy. He never wanted to make his best friend cry.

Squeaky sat by the broken sand. 'I'm sorry, Mina,' he whispered. 'I broke your house. Can we build it again—together?'

Mina gazed at him, thinking hard. Then a tiny smile peeked out, and she gently nodded yes. They could fix it together.

Side by side they pressed new walls, patted corners, and set an even bigger leaf roof on top. The house looked grand!

Squeaky clapped his paws instead of shouting. 'Wow, it looks amazing!' he cheered, tail swishing happily.

Mina beamed. 'Thanks for helping,' she said. 'And thank you for saying sorry.' They shared a warm tunnel hug.

Now Squeaky still loves games, but he knows: a joke is fun only when everyone laughs. If you hurt someone, the bravest words are, 'I'm sorry.'
