The Rabbit and The Turtle

Once upon time, there was a rabbit. A rabbit walked into the park and got a rest. At the same time, the rabbit saw the turtle walked so slowly.

Then, the rabbit went to the turtle to say hello to the turtle. “Hello turtle, why you walked so slowly?”.

The turtle answered, “Hi rabbit, exactly I am not walking now, but I am running now”. “hahaha hahaha” the rabbit laughed, “What did you say?

Running is like that? Running is like this”. The rabbit ran so fast and make the turtle get shocked and get angry at the same time.

After the rabbit ran so fast, the angry turtle challenged him “Hey rabbit, you are so arrogant, let’s race”. and then the rabbit laughed again “hahaha hahaha, take a race? with you? haha! you are a slow turtle”. but the turtle convinces himself “I can win!”.

The rabbit said, “okay, okay let’s go, tomorrow we will meet here again to take a race”.

The next day, they have already prepared to take a race. Mr. Frog also came as a referee. “One… two… three… go!” said the frog.

The rabbit immediately ran so fast and left the turtle behind. “Catch me if you can!” shouted the rabbit. But, the turtle just smiled at him.

After running for a while, the rabbit saw a restaurant. “I am hungry and the turtle was still far from me, so I could eat some foods first”.

Then the rabbit entered that restaurant and ate a lot of delicious foods like cheese, fruit, and cake.

The turtle still ran and cheered itself, “I believe I can!”. After the rabbit felt full, he ran away, but he felt so tired.

“Hoahemm, I feel so tired. I think I will sleep a few minutes”.

Suddenly, the rabbit woke up with a surprised face and he ran faster than before. But he was too late.

The turtle just finished the race. “I am a loser, what a shame!” the rabbit said.

Then the turtle answered, “Yes because you are so arrogant, that makes you failed”.

Rabbit felt embarrassed and he ran away from the turtle.

In the past, there lived a young orphan farm in the northern part of the island of Sumatra.

Syahdan, the young man made his life from farming and fishing.

One day while he was fishing he got a fish which was so beautiful in golden brown.

While he was holding it, the fish turned into a beautiful princess.

The princess was a woman who was condemned for violating the prohibitions and it would turn into a kind of creature who first touched it.

Because at that time the human touched it, then it turned into a princess.

Fascinated by her beauty, the young man asked her to be his wife.

The application was accepted on condition that the young man was not allowed to tell the origin of the princess who came originally from fish.

The young man agreed to this requirement. Having got married for a year, the couple got a boy but he had a bad habit that he never felt satisfied while he was eating.

He ate all the food.

One day the boy ate all the food that should be given to his father.

The young man then so angrily said: "basically you are the offspring of fish!"

That statement by itself unlocked the secrets of his wife and broke his promise.

Shortly afterwards, his wife and son magically disappeared.
