True Friends
Once upon a time, there were two close friends who were walking
through the forest together. They knew that anything dangerous
can happen any time in the forest. So they promised each other
that they would always be together in any case of danger.
Suddenly, they saw a large bear getting closer toward them. One of
them climbed a nearby tree at once. But unfortunately the other
one did not know how to climb up the tree. So being led by his
common sense, he lay down on the ground breathless and
pretended to be a dead man.
The bear came near the one who was lying on the ground. It smelt
in his ears, and slowly left the place because the bears do not want
to touch the dead creatures. After that, the friend on the tree came
down and asked his friend that was on the ground, “Friend, what
did the bear whisper into your ears?” The other friend replied, “Just
now the bear advised me not to believe a false friend”.
She could have sunk if a dove up a nearby tree had not seen
her. Seeing that the ant was in trouble, the dove quickly put
off a leaf from a tree and dropped it immediately into the
water near the struggling ant. Then the ant moved towards
the leaf and climbed up there. Soon it carried her safely to
dry ground.
Not long after at that, there was a hunter nearby who was
throwing out his net towards the dove, hoping to trap it in
this way.
Guessing what he should do, the ant quickly bit him on the
heel. Feeling the pain, the hunter dropped his net and the
dove flew away quickly from this net.

find Juliet on the balcony, professing her love for him and wishing that he were not
a “Montague”, a name behind his own. “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose
by any other name would smell as sweet.” Romeo was ready to deny his name and
professed his love. The two agreed to meet at nine o-clock the next morning to be
married.
Early the next morning, Romeo came to Friar Lawrence begging the friar to marry
him to Juliet. The Friar performed the ceremony, praying that the union might
someday put an end to the feud between the two families. He advised Romeo kept

asked. “Are you a human or the guard of this woods? He asked. Yes, I am a human.” The girl answered
Raden Banterang introduced himself and so did the girl. Her name was Surati. She came from Klungkung kingdom. She saved

was shocked. He helped her and asked her to go his palace. They got married and became a happy family.
One day, Surati was walking alone outside the palace when a man with ragged clothes called her. After she looked at him
clearly and thoroughly, she realized that the man was her brother, named Rupaksa. The purpose of his visit was to ask his
sister to avenge because Raden Banterang had killed their father. Then, Surati told him that she had married with Radeng
Banterang because she had already owed his kindness. Therefore, Surati did not want to accept his brother request. Rupaksa
was angry hearing her sister’s answer. But, he gave her a headband to Surati. He asked her to keep it under her bed.

he was in the middle of the woods, suddenly he was shocked by the arrival of a ragged dressed man. The man said that he was
in danger and it was planned by his wife.
“Look at under your bed. There was a headband of the man who was asked by her to kill you. That’s the proof. The ragged
dressed man said. After he spoke those words, that man disappeared mysteriously. He was frightened. That was why he went
home early. After arriving in the palace, Raden Banterang directly looked at his wife’s bed. He was looking for the headband
that had been told by the ragged dressed man whom he had met with in the forest.
“Ha! That man is true! This headband is the proof! You planned to kill me by asking help from the owner of this headband!”

intend to kill you, my husband, even asked help from another man. Never.” Surati answered. However, Raden Banterang was
still in his faith that his wife, whom he helped before, would endanger crawl his wife first.

ragged dressed man told him. Then, Surati also told him that the man was her brother. He gave her a headband. Her brother

Surati said that if the river would smell good and the water became clear and clean, it meant that she was not wrong. But, if it
was still dirty and smelt bad, it meant that she was wrong. Then, Raden Banterang considered that his wife’s words was
nonsense. Therefore, he killed her wife by his knife, at once Surati jumped into the river and suddenly disappeared.
Not taking long time, a miracle happened. A good smell came from the river. Seeing that incident, Raden Banterang was
shocked and realized that his wife was not wrong. He regretted and felt so sad about his wife’s death. But, It’s already late.
