The cricket did nothing but chirp all day long. He missed hunting time and did not prepare anything for himself for the winter. And his neighbor Ant spared no effort and over the summer he stocked up on everything he needed for the winter.
Winter has come. Soon the Cricket had nothing to eat, and he went to the Ant to ask for food. The Ant got angry, frowned and began to mock the Cricket:
- Oh my neighbor! Your supplies quickly ran out! What important thing have you been doing all summer?
“In the summer I chirped and did nothing else,” answered the Cricket.
“Aren’t you ashamed to beg from your neighbors now?” - Ant asked mockingly and slammed the door in front of Cricket.
It is not without reason that they say: those who do not do anything on time will face trouble.
