Chapter 12

Sam was delighted to see Chuck, the farmer, after a long way. Sam told Chuck all about his journey and how he became such an interesting life form.

"You're a different little fella are ya?!", Chuck said.
"Yup, why do you ask?", Sam answered.
"For starters, your feet are kind of different from the others,", pointing to Sam's feet, " And ya look kind of pale."
"Yes, i've been swimming quite long now."
Chuck interrupted," Well you're more than welcome to stay at my barn for the night."
" Thanks!", he replied.
" But before you stay here i need to tell ya that I have a couple of barn mates. "
"I'm okay with that." he answered, modestly.
" I'll introduce them to you during dinner."

That night Chuck gave him a place to sleep. Chuck said that they'll be eating Chicken Stew, after all it is his specialty. They ate at exactly 8.00 o'clock. Chuck waited until everybody was at the dining table.
" Sam, these are my friends that i was talking to you about." Chuck said, " This is Billy James ", pointing at the tall fish wearing suspenders all covered in dirt and grout.
"I preffer to be called Bily G", Billy said.
" And this is Bob.",Chuck said pointing to a young looking fish.
" I'm used to people calling me by my street name Big Dawg.", Bob said.
" Nobody calls you that Bob.!", Chuck said.
