Roberto lay in his cradle bed facing up, looking at the dolls hanging on the roof of the cradle bed intended to make him sleep when he heard a sudden quirk, which he thought was from the door, but it was from the drawer. Roberto stopped crying when he saw a little creature hopped out of the drawer. He laughed. The creature looked funny to him.
Roberto was a crying baby. He started crying the very day he was born. When he starts crying by 9:00pm, he will never sleep till 3:00am the following day. He was now 6 months old when he met apesa who came out of the drawer.
Apesa was a funny looking creature, it was not human, but looked very much like a human. It was short like the size of a can of malt, with a long nose almost the same size as its body. It Can fly and run fast like a flashlight. Dancing was its specialty among its kinds. It has the power to make things happen.

Roberto's habit of crying was not only a disturbance to his parents but also to the world where apesa came from. Apesa's world is the world in charge of preparing the gifts that will be presented to kids who have made a wish for Christmas. It was a week to Christmas, Roberto's crying kept disturbing Apesa's world with crying during their working hours, which was from 12:am to 3:am. And it was hindering their output. As the noise of his crying was not allowing them to hear themselves while working. Apesa was a dancing gift to Roberto to keep him amused until they are through with their production of Christmas gifts.
On Apesa sighting the crying baby, as Roberto was called in their world laying in the cradlebed, he loved his eyes, " he is cute '' apesa thought, and moved closer to the cradle bed and punked at Roberto's nose. Roberto lay smiling and bubbling. That night happened to be the most quiet and peaceful night Roberto's parents had had since they gave birth to him.
The coming out of apesa from the drawer became a regular occurrence. All through the night, apesa would dance and flash different colors to Roberto to stop him from crying. And that works perfectly well until the third day that Roberto pooped on Apesa's body. Apesa hated the smell of Roberto's poo and left back to his world. But he was sent back.
When Apesa came back to look after Roberto, he used magic to block Roberto's anus and stop him from pooping. After a day of blocking his anus, Roberto began crying again not only at night but both at day time until Apesa got frustrated and opened his anus again. And that night, Roberto pooped on Apesa again.
Apesa decided to give Roberto a Christmas gift. It was an unusual gift, the gift of walking. Before Roberto's mother would go to pick him from his cradle bed. They saw him walking toward them. He never did trial and error in learning to walk. But he was already walking like he had been walking for a long time. They were amazed how he started walking without a trial. That night, Apesa went back to his world. And Roberto stopped crying from that night henceforth. He was always excited at his walking ability at day time. And sleeps every night without a cry since that day he started to walk.
