THE MOUSE DEER AND THE CROCODILE

Once upon a time there was a mouse deer that lived in the forest. It had many enemies, one of the enemies was a crocodile that lived in the river near the forest. Even the crocodile supposed that the mouse deer was the trickiest animal, so the crocodile promised by himself that he would catch the mouse deer alive or die.

“Mouse deer! I would catch you as soon as possible!” said the crocodile angrily.But you know mouse deer audience?

It was an animal that always cheerful and very confident. It also known, as a tricky and intelligent animal, so it was very proud of himself.

And it often said, “I’m the cleverest in the forest. I’m the best. No other animals can compare me. Ha..ha..ha..” He laughed.

And do you know what happened next?

Someday in very hot condition, the mouse deer was very thirsty and dirty. He wanted something to drink on the river. And then, he bathed and splashed about into the water. But how unlucky he was! When he was taking a bath and splashed in the water, the crocodile saw him.

“Hmmm.. a nice meal. Yeah.. I’ll have a big and nice meal this day” thought the crocodile.

Then, he silently crawled behind the mouse deer and grabbed him. He caught the mouse deer’s legs. And the mouse deer startled and terrified as well. Of course cold sweat came out from the mouse deer’s body.

“Oh my God, help me.. Is it the end of my life? Oh my God help me please..” said the mouse deer in his mind.

The mouse deer thought hard how to be free from the crocodile. And as I just told to you that the mouse deer was the tricky and intelligent animal, so after he thought hard, finally the mouse deer got a good idea. It saw a twig floating near him. It picked it up and said,

“You are stupid! You are fool! You think you’ve got me? Actually you are biting a twig, not my legs.”

And with that, the mouse deer showed the crocodile the twig. The crocodile couldn’t see very well. It was a very stupid creature too. It believed that the mouse deer’s cunning. It freed the mouse deer’s legs and snapped upon the twig. And then the mouse deer ran out from the water immediately.

“Ha..ha..ha..” It laughed. “I tricked you again, stupid crocodile! And you have to know that you never can catch me! Good bye.. Mr. Stupid crocodile!” Said the mouse deer happily.
