The Apple Tree And A
Boy
Once upon a time,
there was a huge apple tree which gave tasty apples to the people around it.
There was also a little boy who became a close friend to the apple tree. The
boy used to play with apple tree, climb its branches, sleep under its shadow,
pluck its apples, etc. Every day he visited the apple tree, and ate some
apples. The apple tree was kind to the boy and enjoying spending time together.
One day, the boy
joined in school and didn't have a time to spend with apple tree. After several
days, the boy came to the tree. The apple tree was so happy to see the boy. It
asked the boy to play.
Unfortunately, the
boy said he was not a child anymore. He didn't want to play with the
tree. But he asked another request to the apple tree.
The tree asked what
the boy wanted. The boy said he needed toys, but his parents didn't have money
to buy it for him.
The tree said,
"Dear my boy, i don't have any money to buy it for you, but you can pick
my apples, then sell them, get money and buy the toys you want."
The boy went happily
to his home after plucking apples. The tree was waiting to see the boy return.
But he never came back for many years.
The apple tree was
sad and it didn't produce any apples anymore.
