    The chicken is cranky because it has an itchy tail, because it is a nice day and because the dirt is so dirty. It is also upset because a leaf is in its way and it kicks it. Under it there is a worm which follows the chicken. The worm asks the chicken questions and it finds out  the chicken doesn't have a family or friends.

    The things that make the chicken cranky are : mismatched socks, cupcakes without sprinkles, sunny days, rainy days, food with holes, cheese  especially with holes . The chicken feels happy when it wears fancy shoes ,on Halloween, on birthdays , watching cat videos, going to discos and having friends.

    The worm makes matching t-shirt for both of them with the logo BFFs. The chicken doesn't know how to be a best friend and the worm wants to teach it.In his opinion the best friends have to wear the same clothes, sing together, eat the same food, do arm wrestling, hold hands but they realize neither has hands. Speedy confesses in the end that he doesn't know how to be a best friend, either.

    Like good friends they share their secrets and Speedy says ice cream makes him happy as well as fishing . He also likes reading ,, The Books of Worms''.
