Early in the morning, when the sky over Mountain Town was just beginning to brighten, the little plane Wintik woke up with a special feeling. Today was a perfect day for new encounters and adventures! Wintik, shining in his bright blue color with rainbow stripes, gently took off, enjoying the view of the town beneath him. Mountain Town was surrounded by mountains, and its streets led from cozy houses to green parks and colorful flower beds.

From above, he spotted a lively street with a colorful sign: “Friendship Street.” This area was known for its cozy atmosphere, and Wintik loved visiting here, meeting people and observing the life of the town's residents.

Suddenly, Wintik noticed a tiny ginger bundle sitting near a bench on the side of the road, looking around with worry. It was a small ginger kitten with big, frightened eyes that seemed even larger due to its anxious expression. The little plane landed gently next to him and, trying not to scare the kitten, said:

— Hello! Why are you here all by yourself? — Wintik smiled softly, and his "eyes"-windows glowed with care.

The kitten looked at Wintik and sighed quietly:

— I got lost… I was out with my mom, but then I wandered off and now I can’t find her.

Wintik immediately felt sorry for the little one and decided to help right away.

— Don’t worry, I’ll help you find your mom. Together we’ll explore all the streets, alleys, and courtyards until we find her. Just stay close to me, okay?

The kitten perked up and, with a cheerful meow, stood next to Wintik. They began their journey through the narrow streets of Mountain Town, with Wintik flying low to ensure his new friend could keep up. He pointed out familiar places to help the kitten recognize his surroundings.

First, they checked a small park where kittens often played under the trees, but the kitten’s mother wasn’t there. Then Wintik suggested they head to the main square, where many residents gathered, and perhaps someone had seen her.

— Don’t worry, we’ll find her together! — Wintik encouraged the kitten when it began to lose patience.

At the main square, near the fountains, Wintik and the kitten met an old dog who was lying peacefully in the sun. The dog looked at the kitten and the little plane with curiosity and smiled kindly.

— Hello, dear dog, — Wintik greeted politely. — Have you by any chance seen this kitten’s mother? He’s lost and looking for her.

The dog lifted her head and thought for a moment:

— Yes, I saw a cat with a similar color to yours, little one, — she replied, nodding at the kitten. — She went towards the café at the corner of Friendship Street. Maybe she’s still there.

The kitten purred happily, and Wintik promised to check the café and all the nearby houses if needed.

Arriving at the café, Wintik and the kitten began searching for the kitten's mother in every corner. They even looked behind trash bins and under benches — but she wasn’t there. Just as they were about to get even more worried, Wintik heard a soft call:

— Ginger! Where have you been?

Around the corner of the café came a cat who looked just like the little kitten, only a bit bigger. The kitten recognized her immediately and dashed over joyfully.

— Mom! I was so scared I’d lost you forever! — whispered the kitten, snuggling close to her.

Wintik, watching their reunion, felt very happy, knowing he’d helped bring the family back together. The cat thanked the little plane for his help, saying:

— You’re not just a plane, you’re a true friend. Thank you for not leaving my little one alone.

Wintik blushed a bit with modesty but was proud that he could help.

— It’s always a joy to help friends like you. Remember, on Friendship Street, there’s always someone willing to lend a hand, — he replied, waving his wings as he said goodbye.

The kitten and his mother watched for a long time as Wintik soared into the sky until he disappeared behind the clouds. And from that day on, the kitten knew that friendship and kindness are the most important things in the world, and even if he ever got lost again, his loyal friend Wintik would always be there.
