Smy was a dancing mermaid. She was known for her gracious dancing style. One day, a group of trolls approached her and requested, “We love to dance but we cannot. Would you teach us, Smy?” “Don’t worry,” said Smy, “Come here every day; I will teach you how to dance.” The trolls agreed. Their classes went on cheerfully until, one day, Smy said, “We will have a competition tomorrow. I want to know how much you people have learnt.” Hearing this, the trolls were disappointed. However, since Smy insisted, they agreed for the competition. They all did their best and waited for the result. Finally, Smy announced, “The competition was meant to motivate you all. Real winners are those who readily participate in a competition. So, you all are winners! Congratulations!” Saying this Smy handed out a gift box to each of them. All the trolls happily thanked Smy for the gifts!
