THE PRICE THE SPIDER PAID FOR HIS GREED

 
There once lived a girl who lived in a village far away and had the talents of finding the best food in the bush. Her oranges were the sweetest and her plums the largest. The whole village loved to find such fruits but where unable so they wondered what the secret behind the delicious fruits was and where this little girl found her fruits. The greedy and  lazy spider asked the girl to help him look for food. He had plans to trick this girl to share her little secrets so he could maximise the food stuff to himself. Without knowing how clever this girl was, he said to the girl " Little girl, your fruits are just the best. I love to get fruits like you. Will you take me along with you when you go looking for food ?". the little girl being so kind and generous accepted the spider's request. she made the spider promised her to keep her secret and the spider did.
This little girl began asking the spider his favorite fruits and the spider said " I love plums, bananas and most especially oranges ". "I'll help you get the best of that " said the girl. The walk was quite long as the girl lead the spider down the valleys of the bush where villagers rarely go. The spider was filled with joy for he knew he was about knowing the secrets of this little girl.
"This plum tree bear very little fruits so villagers ignore it but it's fruits are the sweetest of all " the girl said as they approached a plum tree.
The mouth of the spider began to water. being so greedy, he ran ahead of the girl and climbed up the tree. He ate every single plum and didn't even leave one for the girl. He never showed any appreciation to the girl and instead said to himself " This girl is so foolish , she just showed me the best plums I ever had in my life. Hope she continues being foolish".
This girl asked the spider if he wanted some bananas and the spider smiled to her saying " of course, I love bananas". The girl lead the spider through the forest till they met a small banana tree. "Over there, you will find the best bananas in this land", said the little girl. The spider looked at the girl with a smile and the same story with the plums happened. The girl then told the spider to follow her lead so she could take him to the sweetest honey.  The spider was full but he was willing to continue eating all the young girl's food as long as she remained foolish.
Their work began with the girl doing the normal lead. "take a look at that tree," said the girl, deep inside that small hole is the most delicious honey in all the bush".
The spider immediately went into the hole and same story with the bananas and plums happened. His stomach had swollen and they was no way to get out of the whole. This little girl wasn't as foolish as the spider taught. she wanted to teach the spider a lesson.
The spider pleaded for the girl to help him out of the hole but this girl wasn't willing to help. the girl told the spider " you wouldn't be stuck in there if you hadn't been so selfish", I'm sorry for what I did, please help" said the spider.
"I'm not as foolish as you taught, you are only sorry cause you are stocked not because of what you did", said the girl as she took her walk. The spider was left there alone. Guess what happened when the honey bees returned to their hive.
