Once upon a time, in a big house with a spacious dining room, there lived a little boy named Billy. Billy was a curious boy who loved to explore his surroundings. One day, while he was playing in the dining room, he found a shiny coin on the floor. He was so excited and decided to keep it for himself.

Billy then went to the toilet to hide the coin. As he was about to place the coin in his pocket, he accidentally dropped it into the toilet! Oh no, what was he going to do? He couldn't reach it, so he thought of a brilliant idea. He would use his mouth to fish the coin out of the toilet.

So, he leaned over the toilet, opened his mouth, and tried to pick up the coin with his teeth. But just as he was about to grab it, he slipped and the coin went right into his mouth! Billy was in a pickle now, he didn't want to swallow the coin, but he also didn't know how to get it out.

As time passed, Billy realized that the coin was still in his mouth and he couldn't talk or eat properly. His mom noticed that something was wrong and asked him what was going on. Billy tried to tell her, but all she could hear was "Mmmph mmmph mmmph."

His mom figured out what had happened and told him not to worry. She took him to the doctor, who explained that the coin would pass through his system and come out later. Billy was relieved and couldn't wait for the coin to come out.

Days went by, and Billy was getting antsy. He wanted the coin out of him already! But finally, the moment he had been waiting for arrived. While he was playing outside, he suddenly felt the urge to go to the toilet. And when he looked, there it was, the shiny coin he had been searching for, right there in the toilet!

Billy was over the moon and couldn't stop laughing. He learned his lesson and promised never to put anything in his mouth that he shouldn't. From that day on, he was careful with what he put in his mouth, but he never forgot the silly adventure he had with the coin.
