Once upon a time, in a small town, there was a girl named Chikie. Chikie was known for being unkind and not caring about others' feelings. She would often ignore her classmates and not share her toys with them. This made her very lonely, but she didn't seem to mind.

One sunny day, Chikie decided to take a walk in the forest near her town. As she wandered deeper into the woods, she heard a soft voice calling her name. 'Chikie, Chikie,' it called. She followed the voice until she reached a clearing with a large, ancient tree.

To her surprise, she saw a tiny, old man stuck in a crack in the rock. He had a long, white beard and was wearing the most peculiar clothes. 'Please help me,' the little old man pleaded. Chikie's heart softened as she realized he needed her help.

Chikie quickly freed the little old man from the rock. Grateful for her kindness, the old man said, 'As a reward for your compassion, I will grant you one wish.' Without thinking, Chikie blurted out, 'I wish everyone in this town would disappear. I hate everyone here!' The old man sadly nodded and granted her wish, turning the entire town into a ghost town. Now all alone, Chikie realized that being surrounded by people she didn't like was better than being all alone. She felt a pang of regret and wished she could take back her unkind words. From that day on, she learned the power of forgiveness and the importance of treating others with kindness and understanding.
