KANCIL AND TIGER
One day Tiger saw Kancil playing with a stick in the
forest. Tiger wanted to know what kancil was doing.
“What are you
doing, Kancil ?” asked Tiger.
“Shh,
don’t disturb me, Tiger,” answered Kancil, “I’m thinking of a present from Nabi
Sulaiman.”
“A
present ?” asked Tiger.
“Yes,
a present,” said Kancil.
“What
a present is it ?” asked Tiger.
“I
don’t know, but it must very beautiful or expensive. Nabi Sulaiman is very
rich, isn’t he ?” answered Kancil. “Well, because I help him guard his holy
drum.”
“What
drum? Where is it ?” asked Tiger.
“A
holy drum. It is up there in tree,” said Kancil.
“I
think it is not a drum. It is a beehive.” Said Tiger.
“A
beehive ? How dare you compare hi holy drum with a beehive,” cried Kancil, be
careful with your words Tiger.”
“Ok
Kancil, I’m very sorry. May I play the drum, then ?”
“Oh no
Tiger. Nabi Sulaiman would be very angry at me.”
“Please
Kancil, just for one or two minutes.” Begged Tiger.
“All right.
I give you three minutes to play the drum,” answered Kancil, “but let me go a
bit further away from here because I’m afraid Nabi Sulaiman will angry at me.
“Ok,
go quickly, Kancil,” Said Tiger.
When Kancil
was far from the drum, Tiger beat the drum with Kancil stick. Suddenly thousand
of bees flew out of their home and stung
Tiger. Tiger cried loudly for help but Kancil was not there.
Finally
Tiger ran to the river, jumped into it so that the bees left him.
