This special island is located between the island and the river bank. So, this monkey will use a stone as a spring to jump on this island with the fruit it can enjoy.
In this river, live with his wife on a crocodile. One day, Mrs. Croc told Mr. Croc that she wished to have a heart lunch for a monkey instead of other monkeys, but Mr. Croc's friend, the monkey. Mrs. Crocker said that if he really loves her, then he will bring the monkey's heart to her, this is his best friend. Hearing this, Mr. Croc is really sad. However, he loved his wife very much; therefore, he agreed to let Mrs. Croc get the heart of the monkey.
That afternoon, the monkey was enjoying the mango on the island, when the monkey found the rock in the river look very special because it looked bigger than usual. So, the monkey said to himself: "Maybe, some naughty and playful crocodile is hidden behind the stone!" To confirm, the monkey asked the rock, "Dear rock! Why are you so quiet today? Where is your daily life? Croc Mr. thinks that rock is really a piece of rock music, so he said, "Dear monkey, how do you feel today? "Now, of course, the monkey knows that someone will support it because there is no rock music to talk. The monkey then shouted," Rock shouldn't talk; so no matter who you are, show yourself. "
Then Mr. Croc showed himself to himself and told the monkey that he wanted to have lunch at the heart of the monkey. The monkey was shocked and saddened to hear this. He can't believe that his best friend will do such a thing. So, the monkey decided to leave the island, but what? The monkey had an idea and said, "My dear Mr. Crocker, because I can't escape you now; I personally want to give you your heart. Please open your mouth so that I can jump in?" The monkey is smart. He knows that when he opens his mouth, his eyes will close. He agreed and opened his mouth until his eyes closed. Now, the clever monkey jumped on Mr. Crocker's head and then safely returned to the river bank. When he opened his eyes, he saw the safety of the monkey on the bank of the river. Then he apologized to the monkey, but the monkey said he no longer believed him because he intended to kill his only good friend to meet his wife's wishes. Sadly, he returned to his wife's home because he just lost the idea of a very close friend and cried.
