 Once upon a time there was a little girl, Zia, who
walked alone to her house after having a tiring day at
school.

In the middle of road, when she looked over the sky,

the clouds seemed hanging gray.

“Uhh! It will rain soon!,” she murmured and just

acrossed through the farm street.
 Well, the rain fell heavily.

Zia ran quickly to avoid the rain and found a

farmer`s cottage to take shelter.
This rain was pouring badly with thunder and
lightning.

Zia worried that it would happen till noon,

because she was really hungry.
 Suddenly an old man seemed to walk toward
the cottage where Zia was sheltering.

He was very short, maybe less than 50 cm, and

his chin was filled with a thick white beard.
 This dwarf man smiled kindly at Zia.

He took out a bunch of bananas from his bag

and gave it to Zia.
 "Eat these bananas! You must have been
hungry," said Mr. Dwarf.

Actually Zia was in doubt at first, but finally she

gluted the bananas.
 After Zia ate the bananas, the dwarf man
gave his umbrella to Zia while saying,
"Use this umbrella for coming home early."

Zia accepted the umbrella happily.

"Thank you so much, Sir," she replied while

smiling back to him.
 Before Zia left the cottage, the dwarf man
advised,
"If you can open that, call my name three times,
‘dwarf, dwarf, dwarf’.”
 In front of the cottage, Zia opened the
umbrella and immediately said, “Dwarf, dwarf,
dwarf.”

Suddenly the umbrella rose above and lifted

Zia up.

Then surprisingly she could easily direct it

everywhere she wanted.
By riding the flying umbrella, Zia could arrive at
her house for only 10 minutes.

She told her funniest experience to her parents.

They just looked each other as if it was

unbelievable.
