Friend In Need (50-word Story Contest Week #20)
Jiggs the ant loved ant races. Panting heavily, he stopped and stared desperately at the hill in front of him.
Alas, he was too old now and slow.
Suddenly, a giraffe's head swooped down and he said, "Hey Jiggs, sit on my nose and I'll reach you on top first!"
I became aware of the contest in offgridlife's post here:

Great post. Definitely an eye opener.
@maxabit
Thanks for appreciating it. I wouldn't say that it is an eye opening story though.
It's just simple and entertaining to read, as much as 50 words permits it to be. .
