And then he tried to put the spot
on his skin to be like the leopard,

but everyone know he is a hippo.

So at certain point,
he look himself in the mirror,
and he just say,

"Hey, I am a hippopotamus,
and there is nothing I can do about it."

And as soon as he accepts this,
he live life happy.

Happy as a hippo.

You understand?
in my mind i was reading it like an abuela :hs:
