Lola was a very big whale. She always lived alone in the ocean. She appeared quite shy and aloof, and had no friends. Whenever anyone tried to get close to her and cheer her up, Lola would go away. Due to this behaviour of hers, no one liked to come close to her. But old Turga, a hundred-year-old sea turtle, told everyone that Lola was a good whale. She was friendly once, but had changed over time. One day, Dido, a dolphin, heard about Lola, and decided to follow her secretly. She found out that Lola had terribly bad breath because a little fish had got trapped in a corner of her mouth. This problem embarrassed Lola so much that she did not dare to speak to anyone. Dido talked to Lola and convinced Lola to take her help. Dido removed the remains of the fish from Lola’s mouth. When the bad breath was gone, Lola was no longer embarrassed. Soon, Lola became friends with all the animals in the ocean.
