One hot day, an ant was searching for some water. After walking around for some time, she came to a spring. To reach the spring, she had to climb up a blade of grass. While making her way up, she slipped and fell into the water.
A dove saw it. Seeing that the ant was in trouble, the dove quickly plucked a leaf
and dropped it into the water near the struggling ant.
The ant moved towards the leaf and climbed up onto it.
Soon, the leaf drifted to dry ground, and the ant jumped out.
She was safe at last.
Just at that time, a hunter nearby was about to throw
his net over the dove,
hoping to trap it.
Guessing what he was about to do,
the ant quickly bit him on the heel.
Feeling the pain, the hunter dropped his net.
The dove was quick to fly away to safety.
One good turn begets another.
thanks for reading.
