One evening, a little monkey sat on a branch of a tree. A firefly came to him carrying his light.
The little monkeys asked the firefly, “can you put your light in your house?”.
”If I put it in my house, how can I see the mosquitoes”, answered the firefly.
“Why do you want to see them?”,he asked again.
The firefly answered, “They always distrub my way”.
Hearing the firefly’s answer, the monkey laughed loudly, because he thought it was very funny.
He asked again, “Why are you afraid of mosquitoes?”
“I am not afraid of them,” the firefly shouted. But the monkey only laughted loudly.
The little monkey told other monkeys all about the firefly. They also laughed. Unfortunately, the firefly knew and got angry because all of the monkeys laughed at him.
The firefly went to meet the little monkey. The met each other under the tree.
The firefly asked him, “Why did you tell your friends that i was afraid of mosquitoes?”
“It is a fact”, the little monkey answered still laughing.
The firefly became angrier and challenged him to a fight. Not “I am not afraid of mosquitoes or others, you stupid monkeys”, the firefly scolded him. “please tell your friends that i am not afraid of them”, the firefly said again when the little monkey heard this, he laughed again.
The firefly said, “You can laugh now but tomorrow you will laugh no more. I ask you big monkeys to fight with me”, said the firefly.
The next day big monkeys to the firefly’s house. Each monkey carried a big and long stick which would be used to hit the firefly. Other animals ran away when they saw the long line monkeys with stickes in their hands.
However, the firefly was not afraid and came out to meet the monkeys.
The firefly said, “I am not afraid of all of you”.
“How dare you are?”, said the monkeys and they all laughed.
“All right”, said the firefly as he flew and perched an the nose of the biggest monkey. The firefly sat there quietly.
