A Family and a Tiger

Once upon a time, a man, his wife and their daughter lived around a forest. One day, the man
was in the forest cutting wood for fire, while his wife was cooking food in the kitchen and the
girl was playing in the backyard leaving the door open. Suddenly, a furious tiger that was
roaming the area saw the open door and quickly entered the house. The wife who saw the tiger in
the reflection of a mirror, panicked and screamed for help while attempting to flee, but it was
futile as the tiger jumped and bit her neck, ending her life. The man and his daughter who heard
the scream rushed to the house to see what’s wrong. When the little girl saw what happened to
her mom, she ran away crying looking for her dad. But she was running in the wrong direction
and got lost at the edge of a river shore; meanwhile the dad who came late and witnessed the
tragedy couldn’t help himself and started crying. But when he put himself back together he
couldn’t find his daughter.

The tiger has already left the house going after the little girl. So the father hurried to her when
he heard her distant call ‘Daddy’…..’Daddy’. When he got closer to the voice he saw the tiger
crossing a stream of water trying to go after his daughter. He then started running at his
maximum speed using a shortcut trying to reach his girl before the predator does. He was
running while looking back at the tiger desperately hoping he would make it and somehow he
got to her before the tiger did. He picked her up and started searching for a way out of the
situation, but he was out of options as there was a big river blocking their escape, so he didn’t
waste any time because the tiger was right behind him, then decided to jump into the river but
tigers are good swimmers, so it followed them into the deep waters, the father screamed for help
while his daughter was trying having a hard time breathing, and by a miracle they found some
random villagers near the river who rushed to the scene and chased the tiger away, hitting it with
rocks and sticks, the villagers quickly helped the man and his daughter out of the deep waters
and rushed them to a doctor, saving the daughter who almost drowned.
