One sunny day in the season of summer, Anter the ant was going about his daily business throughout the forest. It was still morning. The sun he knew was going to get hotter than it currently was throughout midday. He often went throughout the forest to get food to eat. His favorite foods to eat were strawberries, sugarcane, bread crumbs, mangos, and anything that was sweet and delicious that could be eaten.

Luck was on his side today, as he saw a field with some freshly cut sugarcane. He just liked the sweet taste of it. He knew that the men in the forest and village liked the taste of sugarcane. He knew that it also gave them a lot of energy. As a small ant that was always busy storing up food for a storm, a rainy day, or even a hurricane, he needed lots of energy. He went by the field and started to eat in peace and joy.
