The two friends.
A frog and a
tiger were friends. Sometimes, the frog
goes to the tiger’s house. Every time
the frog goes to the tiger’s house, the tiger cooks delicious meat for it.
One day, the
frog said, “Tiger friend, now it’s your turn to come to my house.” But the tiger said, “Friend, I eat non –
veg. You should cook some meat for me
when I come to your house.”
The frog
agreed and said, “As you wish, I will cook meat for you when you come.”
The tiger
also agreed its invitation.
Where will I
get meat ? This was the frog’s
problem. It roamed here and there for
meat.
That time
only, the frog noticed a horse standing at the river bank. The frog ran so fast and jumped on the
horse. It tried to bite the meat from
the horse’s body.
Will the
horse be standing like that? It shook
and shook and threw the frog away. The
frog who fell down’s leg broke. From
that day only, the frog does not stand straight.
It has
dawned. That day, the tiger was coming
to the frog’s house to eat a feast. But,
the frog did not get meat still. The
frog who was fooled well, came to its house which was like a roof.
Then, the
frog started to bite the meat from its own leg.
It started to scream with pain. That
time only, the tiger came to the frog’s house.
It wondered
why the frog was screaming like this. It
went inside the frog’s house to see what had happened.
What did the
tiger see? It saw the frog biting the
meat in its own leg to give to the guest!
The tiger was sympathetic to the frog.
It said, “Friend,
why are you troubling yourself like this?
Why are you biting the meat in your own leg for me? I don’t want meat,” and went away.
It had
tensions thinking about what wrongs it did.
It went out of the house, jumped into the river and started living
there.
Like that
only, the frog changed its living place from land to water. Its legs became thin because it bit the meat
from its leg.
