Pichke Ele and Kicha boy
One day our Pichke Ele was walking thro a river bank lined wit trees The water was flowing gently .. and there was freshness in the air .. Pichke Ele as usual was in a lazy dreamy mood n was walking carefree .. As it was walking by , he heard a sobbing voice .. Pichke looked here n there and found a boy sitting under a tree .
"What happened dear , Why do u cry ? " Pichke asked the litl boy
" none of your business leave me alone " said the boy .
Pichke Ele said " Ok .. well .. its none of my business but then Lion king is on a prowl .. God help u " So said Pichke and pretended as if he is walking ahead but was watching the litl boy thro the corner of the eye..
" Don't leave me and go "
" Well .. never mind .. walk with me then "
" What's your name ? " Picke asked looking at the litl kid ..
" Kicha "
" Wats
" People in my island call me Pichke ele , so u can also call me Pichke ele " so said the Pichke with a boisterous laugh
" So Kicha , why are you sad ? if you think I could be your friend you can share with me "
Kicha looked at Pichke for a moment .. a silent moment .. and said in a slow but sad tone " No body likes me ' I am ugly . I hate myself " and started weeping ..
Pichke turned to Kicha and lifted him with his trunk and kept him on his mighty back ..
" Well Kicha .. tell me what is beauty "
" Beauty is looking attractive .. the appearance .. look at my face am very ugly .. I hate myself .. "
Pichka was strolling in a gently and nonchalantly said Kicha " Do u think am beautiful "
" Kicha said " ya u r attractive .. "
" Why do you think am attractive ?"
" Coz you are looking good "
Pichka smiled at Kicha and lifted him and placed him before him " Kicha everyone are born beautiful .. haven't u seen new born babies .. they all look beautiful Even you .. even me .. everyone are beautiful when they are born "
" then why am I ugly now " Kicha asked Pichke with almost tears in his eyes ..
" ok .. You know why I look attractive with glowing face ? Shal I give you the secret for beauty ? " Pichke winked at Kicha
"REALLY ? " Kicha asked with a surprise and a unbelievable smile in his face ..
" Well well well .. I will really give it to you if you would follow it "
"TELL ME !!!! " Kicha was happy when Pichke said this ..
Pichke smiled at kicha " See you already started looking beautiful with a smile on
Kichke looked at Pichke .. looked at the twinke in its eyes and the beauty it radiates and smiled and took hold of its trunk and said " You are right my friend , I can see it in your eyes .. now I know the secret of beauty !!! " and hugged pichke ..
Pichke lifted Kicha and said " Oye ! you started looking beautiful and I can see the radiance in your face .. "
Kicha smiled shyly .. and hugged Pichke ..
" now kicha , your village has come go run to your home its getting late " told Pichke to kicha ..
Kicha got down and before leaving took a choclate from his pocket and gave it to Pichka ..
Pichka said " Thanks "
" Don't say thanks and be formal am your fren "
