One day, a little boy was unruly to his mother.  He didn’t listen or heed her rule of tongue.  On this particular day he went outside to play.  His mother commanded him not to go too far away from his home past the pond.  He didn’t reflect upon or care about any of her spoken words.  Instead, he made his own decision to go far from home and past by the pond, anyway.

      The little boy continued to walk.  He walked very far from his abode.  As he walked he began to see the pond within the distance of his eye sight.  All of a sudden he walked past the pond.  In passing the pond, he saw there was a little tail waving about in the water.  Then, he turned around and came back to the pond.  So the next thing he did was to reached over to touch the tail.  All of a sudden, he grabbed the tail.  He took the tail and picked it up out of the water. 

     He returned home to report his tail findings.  He showed it to his sister and mother.  Next, he told them that he was going to cook it and eat it.   They both screamed and said “no do not do it.”   He did not listen to them, instead, he chose to cook the tail and eat it. 

The Little boy cooked and ate the tail.  Afterward, he said it was good.  Preparing for bedtime, he took his bath and he went to bed.  That night, a monster came to him in his room beside his bed and sang a song to him, “I want my tail again.”  He repeated himself by singing this song, “I want my tail again,” and the little boy got frightened.  He was so afraid that he jumped right out of his window and quickly climbed up a tree.  Then the monster climbed the tree to get the little boy.  The monster threw him down out the tree flat on the ground, and reached inside the little boy’s belly and took his tail.  In conclusion, the monster sang the song repeatedly, “I got my tail again, I got my tail again.”

The moral of the story is that good things come to those who wait, but bad things show up right away.
