story and illustration by me "Oath"





"Shhh" a young crow stops an old buffalo who is making very loud noise. "Stop annoying me black", an old buffalo said with frustrating voice. "Go away". "Shhhh! don't you hear that , old man?", a young crow on an old buffalo's back said. "What?" an old buffalo replied. 
"Be quiet!", a tiny crow replied.




It is late in the afternoon, two friends are in the middle of sunflower field. The sun is not angry today because he does not shine so hot. There is a huge and short coconut tree among the sunflowers where two friends have been settled since  the morning.



"Help, Help!"
"Do you hear that, old man?"  a tiny crow asked
"Yeah, it comes from behind, I will go check" an old buffalo replied
"Wait, I'll go with you and please walk slowly so I can stay on your back still." 

After that, two friends are heading toward the noise.

"Hey you, both of you" The two animals stop walking and looking around but they do not see anyone then they continue walking.
"Hey you, both of you."

"Where are you?" the old buffalo shouted.
"I am here, look up". 
"The Sun!" two animals said in the same time.
"Yes, it's me", the sun answered. "You must hurry go to the hut over there before water from that angry river hit it. There is a sick snake in the hut. Please go help her. She is not harm". 

Suddenly, an old buffalo starts running while the tiny black on his back is flying ahead.
"Hurry up old man, she is here". The buffalo is straighten to the hut and hit it hard until all sides collapse. There is a skinny white snake with four eggs inside.

"Can you  move" the tiny black crow asked.
"Yes, but I am not strong enough to hold my babies", the white snake answers with tear.
"Here, put your eggs in a coconut shell and I will take care them for you." the buffalo puts the coconut shell next to the white snake.
"Hurry up, hurry up, we must go now. The river is very angry and he is coming" the tiny black crow is shouting.

All are moving fast and not long, they are back to the coconut tree. 
"You and your babies stay here tonight and we will be back tomorrow. We will help you build a hut close by the coconut tree after lunch." The old buffalo said to the white snake while taking coconut leaves cover on her eggs.

"Thank you both of you for saving us"
