Once upon a
time, there lived a Swan near a lake in a forest.
One night,
an Owl saw the Swan gliding on the lake in the moonlight. He praised the Swan
and soon, the two became friends. They met near the lake for many days.
The Owl soon
got bored of the place and told the Swan, “I am going back to my forest. You
are welcome to visit me whenever you want to.”
One day, the
Swan decided to visit the Owl. It was daylight
when the Swan reached the Owl’s home. She could not find him, as he was hiding
in the dark hole of a tree.
The Owl told
the Swan, “Please rest till the sun sets. I can come out only at night.”
Early
next morning, some people were passing by. On hearing them, the Owl
hooted.
The
people thought it was not a good sign to hear an Owl hoot. So, one of
them wanted to shoot the Owl.
The Owl flew
away and hid in a hole near the lake. The poor Swan did not move. The
arrow hit the Swan and she died.
Never leave
your friends in difficulty.
