NAME:

You were

– Yes you were!
- No, I was not!
The Babi sheep and the snake Silvia are having breakfast the next morning. They are having a pretend fight.
– You kept doing “roonc, roonc, roonc” all night long! – Babi imitated Silvia's snoring and then started to laugh.
- No way! - Silvia protested, laughing too. But Silvia hates to think that she snores like the Galante cock sometimes does, in the cafeteria.
Babi's mother tries to appease:

- I'm sure that if you were snoring, Silvia, it would be a very soft snoring.
– Silvia rolls her eyes.
'Actually…' Mom starts to say, but stops herself.
Silvia's parents have just arrived to pick her up. They returned from the Ilha Grande dance that took place last night.
- Mommy! Dad! – Silvia shouts, hugging her parents – Tell them I don't snore!
Silvia's mother runs her hand over her head and smiles.
– Well, Silvia, I have to say that sometimes you do that. Very softly. I think a lot of us snakes do that, honey. We have very tiny noses,” she explains.
– Hey, Silvia, we're still best friends, ok? – Babi says, trying to make Silvia feel better.
– You should be best friends – Babi's mother comments – I was going to say that you also snore!
