Short Stories with Moral

A voracious mouse saw a basket loaded with corn. He wanted to eat it. So he made a little gap in the basket. He pressed in through the opening and ate a great deal of corn. He felt full and was exceptionally glad.
Now he needed to come out. He endeavored to turn out through the little gap. He proved unable. His tummy was full. He attempted once more. But it was of no utilization.
The mouse began crying. A rabbit was passing by. It heard the mouse's cry and asked, "Why are you crying, old buddy?"
The mouse clarified, "I made a little gap and came into the bin to eat the corn. Presently I am not ready to get out through that opening."
The rabbit stated, "It is on the grounds that you ate excessively. Hold up till your midsection contracts." The rabbit giggled and left.
The mouse nodded off in the bushel. The following morning his midsection had contracted. However, he needed to eat some more corn. He overlooked escaping the bushel. So he ate the corn and his stomach was huge once more.
After eating, the mouse recollected that he had to escape. But he could not do so. So he thought, "Goodness! Presently I will go out tomorrow."
The cat was the next passerby. She smelt the mouse in the basket. The cat lifted the lid and ate the mouse.
