An Untruthful Elephant
In a country, lived a pair of elephants who love each other. They were Shawn
and Honey. They had been living together since 2 years ago and had two children.
Their first child was Andy and their second was Danny. Danny was the elephant that
often lied and he was always scolded by his parents because of the lies that he
often did.
While their older child, Andy was and elephant who was very honest and
made the parents were so proud. However, although his parents were proud him, he
was no arrogant, so all the elephants liked him. All those conditions made Danny
jealous and did not like his brother. But, he had not made by him changed and he
became more and more lying frequently. He was never to be deterrent even though
often punished by his parents.
Meanwhile, his brother, Andy was never bored and stopped to advise him.
However, all of the advice and the punishment he received was never made by him
wary. A lie that often done by him was screaming near the river so that someone
else thinks he was drowning. In fact, he only intended to pretend and lied.
One day, he wanted to drink the water in the river which was deep enough.
Because he was so thirsty, he did not pay attention to the depth of the river and
immediately stuck his trunk into the water. The surfaces that were near the river
sere so slippery but he did not pay attention. Suddenly, Danny slipped and he
plunged into the river. There was no elephant that was near river because they were
all in the pasture which was far enough away from the river. He then yelled very
loudly and asked for help to all the elephants.
The elephants heard it, but he often lied, so that the elephants on the pasture
ignored his scream. In fact, his parents did not pay attention because they thought
he was lying. However, his brother reached the river, he saw that Danny was not
lying and Danny almost drowned.
Andy immediately saved Danny and took him out on the pasture to be
treated. The elephants in the meadow shocked and immediately huddled beside
him. A few minutes later, he woke up and he promised never to lie again
