Little friends, great friends

One day, when a lion was sleeping, a little mouse began running up and down his body. This soon woke up the lion, who picked up the mouse in his huge paw and opened his mouth to swallow him. "Forgive me, King", begged the little mouse “Forgive me this time and I will never forget it. Who knows, maybe I will be able to help you one day.” The lion was so amused at the idea of the mouse being able to help him that he let him go. The mouse ran away, grateful.
