- Ha, ha! Listen guys, it’s a balloon! answered one of the
tied balloons and the rest of them burst into laughter.

- And what kind of balloon are you, all long and thin like

this? How will the kids hold you and play with you?
- But I…

- Surely, the clown that inflated us moments ago made

a mistake and that’s why he abandoned you. You must
be the only one in the world with such a shape. Tough

luck kid…

The balloon became very sad. It coyly looked one more

time at the balloons hanging directly above it and felt
discontent. Why should it have been created so

different from the others? It started thinking that it

was really ugly as well. It is unfair it thought, being a

balloon that didn’t have a nice colour and could not be
used in anything… There must have been a mistake at

the manufacturing plant.

- And what kind of colour is this? It’s the first time that
we have seen such a colour, went on mocking the round

balloons.
