Importance Of A Good Friend

Finally I have enough time to read my favourite book twilight, Edward with Heley went in the park, now I can sit with my cup of coffee and read. This days I am really into vampires and thinking to write a story on this genre.

 I made a cup of hot coffee and from library took my book, made a perfect cocoon of pillow in the sofa to sit on . Book here I come. I started to read at that time the door of my house opened and a miss with angry face entered the room ( my daughter Heley), she marched and sat across me with a angry face. Someone have messed up real bad. 

Edward rushed in and started apologizing, my girl made a sad face and told " You cheated on me. " yeah! Right even I almost fell from my sofa....my girl is bit dramatic. " But I said sorry....You known I love you, sorry princess. " said Edward. Never saw him pamper me that much when I get angry. 

" But you just cheated, you talked with that bad boy of the class, now my friends will make fun of me.....how could you break my trust ? " she said, think if divorce cases in court were fought like this...I know that's not funny but I am having fun. And you still don't have right to judge me. Wait till you have a daughter of your own only than you will know why I am enjoying the argument. 

But now I think me and my book have to wait little long. I put the book aside and came in the kitchen and took a tray and filled it with little cookies and made three cups of coco milk and came back in the hall. I put the tray on the table and told " Chocolate break.....best snacks of story kingdom is here for my queen. " I said dramatically and she had to look other side to hide her smile..... not bad.

" Now tell me what's the matter ? " I asked, Heley took a deep breath and started narrating " Me and daddy were playing in the park and you know their are only two swings right ? " she asked, I nodded in response and she continued " One was full with little kids and the other one was for us ....my friends and we like good girls were taking turns and riding the swing but than when again it was my turn baddy didn't let me ride and allowed that dirty boy of our class to ride instead of me.....my friends were laughing so hard saying ' you are friend of a stinky '. They say he is fatty and with a runny nose....yucky guy, don't like him at all. " she said with a sad voice. 

" Now that's something you should change about yourself young girl, you hear me .....that's exactly not the way you treat people. " said Edward, okay now he may be a pampering father but he will never let bad habits to grow in her, And when he was a kid he had to face lots of humiliation for his poor condition of life and that's why he is little sensitive in this topic. But right now it will not do any good if he scolds her, we have to explain her this nicely. 

" Okay, okay ....I think mummy got it. And since its Sunday we must discuss about it later. Its fun day and since my girls mood is off mummy is going to tell you a story...." I told her and signed Edward not to speak, he understood and here you go. Heley jumped with a happy grin on her face. 

" So today we will hear about the story of ' Winston Forest ' there in the forest four best friends use to live. Jimmy a beautiful peacock, emily a baby elephant, Jugoo the monkey, and Timothy the little tiger cub. " I told her and as usual Edward was laughing at my naming choosing ceremony. But as long as my girl is happy I don't think I will mind him. 

" Timothy, was he the son of the king of jungle, King Asher ? " asked Heley, whenever I say king of Jungle she assumes it to be king Asher and well its not like I mind it. So I told " yes he was son of the king of jungle, king Asher and queen Rosa. And for that everyone use to love him. " I told her and she smiled ear to ear imaging the pleasant scene in her mind. 

" They use to play together, eat together, and stay happily with each other. One hot summer day when Emily was eating apples under a huge tree, Jugoo was chewing some nuts hanging with its tail on a tree branch, Jimmy was brushish his feathers and Timothy was just lying on the ground they saw a strange creature approached them. It has sharp teeth's, red eyes and big wings compared to its body. They immediately realized that it was ' Edward -the vampire bat ' of the jungle . " as soon as I told the line, my daughter laughed out loud and my husband almost chocked on his saliva. 

" They were scared but the bat said ' Don't be afraid, as I came here to be friends with you. ' and as soon as he said that all the animals started laughing and than Timothy said ' What quality do you have to be our friend ? Do you have fine feathers like brother jimmy ? ' to which the bat said " No. " Timothy asked again ' Do you belong from royal family like I do ? ' the bat with a sad face said ' No ', ' can you bounce on branches like I do ? ' asked Jugoo, ' or can you crush sugarcane like I do ? ' asked Emily . Now Edward was feeling very bad and he stood with his head down. Timothy said ' If you can do nothing than you can't stay in my group. ' after hearing that Edward with a sad face left their group. " I told, I wonder how it look if my husband can really turn into a bat. Well frankly speaking that sounds like a nightmare. 

" I feel bad for ' Edward the bat ' those animals were so mean to him. " said Heley. Well we are going their, we are going their. " Many days passed after that, one similar hot day when the friends were laughing and talking they saw a strange bird. Its body is a beautiful green color with a red nose...." I told and asked her " can you name the animal ? " 

" Its a parrot. "Heley said with excitement. " yes, it was a parrot. It went to the animals and told ' My name is Zinna I came from distant land of singsong forest, will you be my friends ? ', Now singsong forest was very famous forest of birds we know that so the animals didn't waste time and made Zinna their friend. They played together, eat together and Zinna told them many stories of her forest which made them wish to see singsong forest. " I paused to take a break and compose my story little more. 

" They begged her to take them singsong forest and after few requests she agreed to take them singsong forest. But she told them to keep the visit a secret so that no one can known about it. If others request her to go with her than ? .. She can't take more than five people with her. So the four friends kept it a secret between them but the tree under which they were talking among themselves is where ' Edward the bat' lives and he heard every bit of the conversation. He immediately came down of his tree and warned them saying not to believe the zinna . ' she looks fishy, look at her leg it seems she was tied with rope for a long time and the sign is still there. ' said the bat, ' That's my birth mark ' replied Zinna, ' why there is similar symbol in your neck ? ' asked the bat. ' ' oh! that's my beauty mark. ' replied Zinna. They argued for long than Zinna told ' If you don't want to believe me than I will return singsong forest myself ....don't need friends who can't trust me. ' This made others more unhappy with Edward and they thought he was jealous of their luck. So they said together ' we trust you ' and left with Zinna without listening Edward. " every time I take the name I somehow manage to stop the argue to laugh out loud. 

" They together reached at the end of the forest and saw a big box kept their with scales around it. Zinna said ' Its the box which will take us singsong forest, let me get in first and than you follow me. ' others were scared but looking at zinna entering first they become relaxed and entered the box. As soon as they did that the box door got closed, zinna flew out of the cage throw the opening and all the animals were closed inside. She flew laughed and told ' Now wait soon you will reach your destination but in sinsong forest but in Zoo....your friend was right I am a pet of a hunter and soon he will come here to take you with him.' She declared and flew in sky. Now all the animals were thinking why they didn't listen Edward. They were very sad and angry with themselves. " the look of disbelief is there in my daughters face. 

" But soon they heard flapping sound of wings and saw Edward flying towards them. He said he felt something fishy and came to check on them. The four friends apologized to him and he readily forgave them and told them to act like they are scared of something and look towards the corner of the forest with sacred eyes. They all agreed with the plan, next day when the hunter came back saw the animals scared and looking at a certain direction he walked towards that side to see what's the matter and their in the woods he saw the shadow of the legendary vampire for which no one enters Winston Forest. He got so scared that without taking the animals he ranned away. When the hunter left, Edward came in light with all the parents of the animals who were in the cage, together they made a pyramid which in shadow look like a monster which scared the hunter. Father of Emily broke the cage with his trunk and rescued the animals and from that day Edward became a member of the team. And no hunter ever dared to enter the jungle again. " I told ending my story. Heley became too happy and clapped her hands. 

" so what we learn from the story ? " asked Edward ( my husband ) . she told " That we must not held prejudice about how a person looks like and make friends carefully..... I will say sorry to Hudson Tommorow and give him a sorry card for behaving rudely. ......sorry daddy I was very rude. " oh ! My girl is an angle. 

" Daddy loves you. " said Edward and pulled her in a tight hug. " And mummy loves you both. " I said and hugged them both. Heley rushed to make her sorry card in her room. Finally free to read my book. But Edward pulled me in his embrace and told " you are the best mother in the world, proud of you. " who worries about some stupid vampire story when I have a perfectly fine husband to invest my time into. I lied in his embrace, best Sunday ever.
