14. THE BIRD WITH TWO HEADS

 

Long, long ago, there lived a strange bird in a huge banyan tree. The tree stood beside a river. The strange bird had two heads, but only one stomach.

 

Once, while the bird was flying high in the sky, he saw an apple shaped fruit lying on the bank of the river. The bird swooped down, picked up the fruit and began to eat it. This was the most delicious fruit the bird had ever eaten.

 

As the bird had two heads, the other head protested, “I’m your brother head. Why don’t you let me also eat this tasty fruit?”
