David and Sam were walking together in a
forest. They made a pact to look out for each
other. They were halfway through the forest when
they heard a frightening sound. They turned
around and sure enough, there was a bear
lumbering slowly towards them. They froze in
their tracks. Bears normally leave people alone
if they just stay still. However, the bear kept
on coming. In a panic, David simply ran off and
climbed up a tree. Sam did not have time to do
the same, so he just laid down on the ground and
stayed still. The bear came to Sam. He went
closer to Sam's head and sniffed him. Sam stayed
as still as a statue. After a while, the bear
lumbered off. David, who had been watching,
climbed down when he was certain that the bear
was gone. He went up to Sam, who was walking
away. David asked, "I saw the bear go near to
your ear. Did he say anything ?" Without looking
at David, Sam said, "Yes, he told me not to walk
with friend who leave you when there's trouble." |
