The Centipede and The Millipede





One day, in a wide jungle there were two little crawly things who were different. .
It is the centipede and the millipede. Whenever the centipede saw the millipede, he bully it . Because in every way, they were opposite. The centipede gets mad at the millipede because it is slow walker,short and eats scavengers that's why he hate the millipede. But, even they are enemies, their parents were good friends  that made the little centipede curious and ask . "Mom why were you such good friends with the mother millipede?" the little centipede ask.
"Son, were good friends because I trust her and she is also good to me" the mother replied.
"But Mom, We are opposite from the millipede in many ways" the son said.
"Son, listen carefully. All of us are different.The way we talk,the manners and also the physical appearances. But it is not the base of choosing your friends. Even though we are opposite from them, we can be friends with them." the mother said. 
The little centipede realize and understand his mother said. "Mom was right, I can be friends with little millipede too" the centipede said. Suddenly, he saw the little millipede and talk to it.
"My friend, I'm sorry for bullying you. At first, I hate you because you are different from us. But now, I can truly say that I don't hate you anymore and we can be good friends from now on." the centipede said
"I accept your sincere apology my friend. Thank you for having you as  my friend" the millipede replied
From that day, the centipede and millipede were good friends. They always help each other and that made the centipede think that differences is not the base of choosing his friends.

Treasure Hunt Mess (Original Fable)


It was the beginning of the school holidays and all the note pads, pens and pencils had been shut up the school bag.
“It is going to be really boring, so let’s jump out of the bag and pretend that we are back at school” suggested a small notebook.
“Oh no!” yelled the pencils. “Let’s do something really exciting for once”
“I went on a treasure hunt once” said a blue envelope.
“That’s it!” cried the green eraser “We’ll have our very own treasure hunt!” and all of them opened the bag and jumped out.
“I’ll run ahead and mark all the clues with black crosses” shouted the ballpoint pen “The rest of you turn around, close your eyes and count to one hundred!”
But one little red pencil didn’t close his eyes at all or count to one hundred, for he wanted to help with the treasure hunt too.
“I’m such a bright red color” whispered the little pencil. “I’m just perfect for drawing the arrows to lead to the treasure!”
So while everybody else was counting up to one hundred, the little red pencil started to work.
The others were still counting… ninety-eight, ninety-nine, and one hundred! At last they opened their eyes and the hunt began.
The pencils and pens, the erasers and note pads all rushed around every direction. A few of them followed green dots and blue arrows; others looked out for black crosses. Everyone else followed lots of bright red arrows pointing all over the place. After a while everyone ended up in one big muddle!
“We’re all going around in circles!” snapped the blue pencils.
“Because everyone followed the red arrows, where did they come from?” yelled the green pencils, very angrily.
“I drew them all, because I thought I was helping” whispered the little red pencil, and then started to cry.
“Don’t cry little fellow, it’s just a game!” smiled the green eraser kindly, “I’ll rub out all the marks, and start over the game again”
So it was agreed that this time everyone closed their eyes and counted to one hundred… and guess who they asked to mark out the clues? The bright little red pencil of course!

The Three Cows



The Three Cows
In some part of the forest where green grass are in bloom, there were three cows enjoy eating the fresh grass, a color gray, white and chocolate cows. These the cows were part of a huge herd of cattle. But almost of the time, they spend together wandering around the greenie fields.
Out of their knowledge, a ferocious leon is watching them for a quite some time.  And the desire for a good meal is always playing in his mind. Days past, the leon has been hunting all small animals in the forest and all that is left are huge, enormous and more ferocious than him. The leon got very hungry as the days goes by. He tried to attack one of the cows, but the other two cows come to the rescue. The cows depend themselves against the attack of the leon. Since it is one against three, the chance of winning is hair thin.
So the leon has come up with a plan. He tried to talk to one of the cow. He approached the white cow in a graceful entry and talk to him that he will not hurt or impair the cow. He told the white cow that the gray cow is much stronger than him. And the white cow didn’t believe him. But as the days past, as the leon always talked to the white cow, the leon convinced or made the white cow believe that the gray cow is the strongest among the three. The leon was very happy to hear that the white cow is starting to create a grudge between the cows. The leon is also talking to the other two cows, inventing stories to built hatred between them. And as the days past, the cows were not seeing each other wandering around the fields.
A shocking news have reached the white cow, the gray cow has been killed days ago and all parts of the body were gone and all that is left are bones and hair. To their amazement, no other ferocious animals attacked the herd of cattle before. And the white cow think for a moment about what happen before the three cows have grudges, a leon attacked them when they were eating in the field.  The white cow prepare himself that he will be the next victim.  Far from the bush, a leon approach him with an angelic smile in the face and the leon looks healthier that before his two friends died. The white cow asked the leon if he does something about it, and the leon smilingly tell the white cow that it was him who killed his friends. Sorry, I know that three of yours are friends and it is my will to survive to eat them. The white cow got angry, he never ask forgiveness to his two friends about what happen. The leon said, it is your time to follow your two friend’s destiny. I will eat you like I do eat them. But this time I will be careful and do it in a nice way. I will never let you feel the pain. As the white cow is about to lower his head to eat grass, the leap over the cow to grab by his mouth the cow’s neck. But he cow is well prepared for the leon’s attack. The cow’s horns were sharp and big. The leon landed his chest on the cow’s horn and because the leon got big, it makes the cow’s horn stab deeper into the leon chest and reached the leon’s heart. The leon was shocked about what happen but it was too late to regret.  The blood spills over the cow’s horn and the leon is beginning to lose strength due to loss of blood. Minutes after, the leon was dead and the white cow dropped him on the ground. And tell the leon that the cow has his revenge for the loss of his two friends.  The white cow walked away and joined the herd while eating fresh green grass. While the ferocious leon’s remain were eaten by other animal in the forest.
