Monkey and Crocodile
One day a monkey wanted to cross a river. He
saw a crocodile in the river, so he asked the crocodile to take him across the
other side. The crocodile told the monkey to jump on its back. Then the
crocodile swam down the river.
Now, the crocodile was very hungry, so when it
was in the middle of the river, it stopped and said to the monkey, ”Monkey, my
father is very sick. He must eat the heart of the monkey. Then he will be
strong again.”
The monkey thought for a while. Then he told the
crocodile to swim back to the river bank.
“What’s for?” asked the crocodile.
“Because I didn’t bring my heart with me,” said
the monkey.
“I left it under the tree, near some coconuts.”
So, the crocodile turned around and swam back
to the bank of the river. As soon as they reached the river bank, the monkey
jumped off the crocodile’s back and climbed up to the top of a tree.
“Where is your heart?” asked the crocodile.
“You are foolish,” the monkey said to the
crocodile.
“Now I am free and you have nothing.”
The monkey told the crocodile not to try to
fool him again. The crocodile swam away, hungry.
