Episode 1: The Mysterious Seed

Ben is a brown furry dog, always full of energy and hyperactivity. All day, Ben just likes to run around, looking for naughty things to do. Ben's owner is Mr. Hai, a young man who lives in a lovely little house with a brilliant garden full of flowers and leaves. Mr. Hai loves Ben very much and always indulges his mischievous antics. Mr. Hai's house is located in a quiet neighborhood, where neighbors often come back and forth to chat and share with each other about life.

One beautiful morning, when the sunlight gently filtered through the leaves, Ben was lying on the porch, enjoying the fresh air. Suddenly, from the house next door, Ben heard a strange noise. Its sensitive ears immediately perked up, listening and trying to determine the source of the sound. Ben realized that the noise came from something moving. With his naturally curious nature, Ben decided to find out more.

Ben jumped into the yard and ran quickly toward the fence dividing the two houses. It stopped and raised its head to look through the gap in the fence. On the other side, a white cat with blue eyes is cautiously walking on the grass field. The cat looks very elegant and doesn't seem to notice Ben's presence. Ben felt extremely excited. This is the first time he has seen this cat. Maybe the cat just moved here.

“Wow, a new friend!” Ben thought to himself and began planning to get to know the cat.

Ben knew that cats are not usually approachable and can be very wary of strange creatures, especially a dog like him. Ben tried not to make any noise, but because he was so excited, he couldn't control himself and let out a small bark. The cat was startled and turned its head to look at Ben with wary eyes. Ben tried to be friendly, he bent down, wagged his tail and barked a few more times, as if to say: "Hello!" I'm Ben, I want to get to know you!”

The cat continued to look at Ben, but did not come closer. Instead, he jumped onto a chair in the yard and lay down, still staring at Ben. Ben understands that he needs to be patient. He sat down and waited, hoping that the cat would change his mind and come closer.

Mr. Hai walked out of the house and saw Ben sitting in front of the fence. He curiously followed Ben's eyes and saw the white cat. He smiled, patted Ben's head and said: "Oh, Ben, it seems you've found a new friend, huh?"

That afternoon, Ben still did not leave his position, he attentively observed the white cat. As the sun began to set, the cat jumped down from the chair and disappeared inside his house. Ben felt a bit disappointed, but he decided not to give up. Ben knows that he has to be persistent to be able to make friends with the cat.

The next day, Ben woke up early and quickly ran to the garden, hoping to see the cat again. And as expected, the cat was sitting on the chair, licking his silky white fur. Ben started barking softly again, acting friendly. This time, the cat seemed a little less wary. It looked at Ben for a long time, then slowly jumped down and approached the fence. Ben was overjoyed, wagging his tail continuously.

The cat sat down at a safe distance from the fence, still keeping his eyes on Ben. He seemed curious about this active dog. Ben sniffed through the gap in the fence, trying to convey that he had no bad intentions, just wanted to make friends. The cat still didn't come any closer, but at least this time it didn't leave immediately. Ben took that as a good sign.

Ben decided to try a different approach. He went back into the house and brought out his favorite little ball. Ben began rolling the ball back and forth in front of the cat, hoping that this game would attract his attention. The cat looked at the ball for a moment, then moved his hand around the ball. Ben felt excited, he rolled the ball through the gap in the fence so the cat could play with him. The cat bent down to smell the ball, but didn't dare touch it yet.

In the following days, Ben patiently tried many different ways to make friends with the cat. Every day, it brings out a new toy or sometimes even brings some delicious food to share. The cat gradually let down its guard and began to respond to Ben's friendly gestures. Finally, after a week of perseverance, the cat dared to come closer and touch the ball that Ben passed.

That afternoon, as the sun set, the cat even jumped over the fence and into Ben's yard. Ben happily ran around, wagging his tail continuously. The cat seemed quite comfortable and began to explore the garden. The two animals can finally play together. Ben felt so happy because he finally had a new friend.

Mr. Hai saw that scene from inside the house and smiled with satisfaction. He knew that with Ben's friendly and patient nature, sooner or later he would make friends with the cat. He walked out into the garden, called Ben and the cat closer, and patted both of their heads. “Very good, Ben! Now you have a new friend. Please take care and have fun together!”

Ben and the cat looked at Mr. Hai, then looked at each other. They both felt very happy and eagerly looked forward to the new adventures that lay ahead. This first meeting was just the beginning of a friendship full of fun and memorable experiences.
