Let us enjoy reading this story of Selfish Friendship .

in #story6 years ago

Once a cat was caught in a hunter's net. A mouse used to live
in a nearby hole. The mouse seeing the cat in the net started
playing around the cat.
Soon a mongoose came there. He wanted to kill the mouse.
As he lifted his head, he saw an owl sitting on a tree trying to
catch him. The mongoose went very near the cat's net to save
himself. The mouse thought "When the hunter takes away the
cat, the mongoose will not spare me and the owl is there to
enjoy both of us."
The Mouse went to the cat and said,
"I can cut the net if you promise to save my life from the
mongoose and the owl." The cat agreed. The mouse started
cutting the net slowly and freed the cat only when the hunter
was just near the cat. The cat took to heels and so ran the
mongoose too. The owl was very much disappointed to see
even the mouse running away to safety.
A few days later, the cat being hungry, went to the hole of the
mouse and requested him to come out for a game. The
mouse replied,
"I sought friendship and saved you to save my life." Now you
can go home.
MORAL : Don’t nurture friendship with selfish people.
