The Three Friends

Lizard, lion, and cat were three good friends. They could not leave each other. One day they were playing hide and seek. The lion was to look for the other two. The cat hid in a treetop and the lizard hid in a crack on the ground.

The lion got tired looking for both of them. Finding none he sat on the ground where the crack was. The lizard playfully bit the tail of the lion. The lion thought that the crack had attacked him so he fled into the darkest part of the jungle. The cat and the lizard came out of their hiding. The cat saw that there was the tail of the lion in his mouth. The cat didn't know of the lion's fleeing. The lizard justified that the tail in his mouth was yet to be digested and he had already eaten the lion. Hearing that the cat also fled to the same part of the jungle where lion went. The lizard was left friendless now.

The cat and the lion met and they narrated their parts of stories. The lion thought that it was good that he was safe from the lizard. He thought that the lion ate there was another one. The cat was happy for his friend's safety. Now they planned to stay in the jungle. They were hungry so they caught a buffalo and killed him. They wanted to cook so they needed fire. The cat went to the human settlement. There the cat drank milk and came. The sign was there in his mustache. The lion was angry that he drank milk alone. He chased the cat and said that he would eat even his feces and from that day the cat bury their feces.
