The Monkey and the Crocodile
It was a beautiful lake surrounded by lush
green grasses, beautiful trees, mountains and sweetest, tastiest jamun trees.
There lived a monkey on one of the jamun trees located near the lake.
The lake also had a few crocodiles. There was
one crocodile that used to collect the jamun fruits from the lake that fall
from the tree.
As the crocodile visits the jamun trees every
day, it became friends with Monkey. Crocodile and monkey met every day. The
monkey helped crocodile by providing more and fresh jamun fruits from the tree.
Their relationship continued and they became close pals.
One day, the monkey asked the crocodile to give
some jamun fruits to his wife and family as the fruits were more delicious. The
crocodile agreed and took a lot of jamun fruits to his wife.
His wife was so happy and surprised that she
never ate so delicious fruits, so far. She inquired her husband, where he got
those fruits. The crocodile told her, his friend, monkey who lives in a Jamun
tree gave these for him.
The wife crocodile made a plan in her mind. She
asked her husband, ‘Does your friend eat these fruits every day?’ The crocodile
replied yes. She added, ‘Oh my goodness. These are the sweetest fruits we ever
ate. Imagine how delicious the monkey’s heart would be if he eat these fruits
daily! I need the heart of your friend. Can you please bring it for me?’
The crocodile was shocked to hear it from his
wife. He replied, ‘But he is my close friend. I can’t do this to him.’
The wife crocodile told him, ‘don’t worry. You
bring him here. I will then take care! Or else, you may try to push him down
into the water if he doesn’t know swimming!’
After a long time, the crocodile agreed to
bring monkey to his wife.
The very next day, crocodile invited monkey to
join them for lunch and asked for his favorite foods. Monkey happily agreed to
be the guest and but worried that the monkey did not know how to swim in the
lake.
Crocodile on thinking about monkey’s sorrow,
pleased monkey and told him, ‘Don’t worry. I will carry you on my back and will
take you back safely too!’
The monkey accepted and crocodile rode him to
his home on his back on the water. As they reached half way, the crocodile
tried to push monkey down into the water. However, monkey held the crocodile
tightly and did not fall. Monkey got suspicious about crocodile’s act and asked
him to tell the truth.
Since crocodile believed him as his good
friend, he told about the conversation and the fight his wife had with him and
he was taking monkey to eat his heart!
The intelligent monkey said, ‘Oh my dear
friend, you should have told me this earlier. I left my heart on one of the
branches of the tree as I won’t carry it if I travel long. If you take me back,
I can give you my heart.’
Crocodile accepted and rode the monkey back to
the lake. As they reached the tree where the monkey lived, the monkey climbed
quickly and escaped from the crocodile.
He shouted at crocodile, ‘I thought you as a
good friend, but you cheated me. I will never come back and never be your
friend.’
The crocodile understood his mistake and
returned back home empty handed, losing a good friend indeed
