Cheeku rabbit also told his mother, "Mummy! It's getting very cold! We must get the blankets filled with cotton."
Mummy said, "All right. You have a holiday tomorrow, so we'll go."
The next day, Mummy, Papa and Cheeku went to Baddy's shop. The dark clouds in the sky made it look like it would rain right away. Cheeku said, "Mummy, it seems like it will rain even though it is winter."
Mummy said, "Yes, and it will get colder once it rains. It is good that we thought of getting the blanket stuffed. Let's hope Baddy gets our blanket stuffed in time." They had reached Baddy's shop while talking.
Looking at chubby Cheeku, Baddy's mouth started watering. When Cheeku's father talked about stuffing the blanket, Baddy said that he wished to take measurements to ensure that one blanket would be enough for the three of them.
Cheeku's father said, "We have enough for only one blanket, so make one for all three of us."
Seeing Cheeku up close, Baddy was getting excited about eating him. Even though there were a lot of orders for the blankets, he promised to give them theirs by the next evening, but he asked them to send Cheeku the next day to remind him.
