Once upon a time, there lived a monkey on a mango tree on the

banks of a river. The mangoes of that tree were the sweetest of all.
The tree bore fruits year-round. The monkey used to live very happily
on the tree eating the tasty fruits and playing on the tree. On a
particular day, a crocodile came near that mango tree. He seemed
very exhausted. The monkey offered him some delicious mangoes
from the tree. The crocodile loved those mangoes and thanked the
monkey for the same. From then on, the crocodile used to visit the
monkey every day and they became good friends. One day the
crocodile thought to take some mangoes for his wife. When his wife
ate the mangoes, she demanded something very absurd from the
crocodile. She said that these fruits are so tasty, then how delicious
will be the heart of that monkey who regularly eats these
mangoes! She ordered the crocodile to bring the monkey’s heart for
her. The crocodile was shocked at her demand. The monkey was his
friend. How could he betray him? He declined to kill the monkey and
bring his heart to her. The crocodile’s wife was adamant about
getting the monkey’s heart. After some time, with a heavy heart, the
crocodile left to get the monkey. When he got the monkey to the
middle of the river he confessed that he was going to kill him. The
monkey told that he should have told him before because he did not
bring his heart. The foolish crocodile turned back and took the
monkey back to the tree. The Monkey climbed it and told him not to
come back and leave.
