‌Black Hen

  Written by: Minaa Nazari

Once upon a time, a few chickens were living in a house with a yellow cat. The red and black hens had chickens too.

The black hen had a few chickens but the red hen had more, and this issue caused the black hen to be jealous of the red hen.

One day the black hen saw that the yellow cat was lying on the ground and could not move due to hunger. The black hen told her to chase her, and she would offer her a portion of good food.

The black hen took the yellow cat to the barn, and when the cat saw the red hen with so many chickens, she became happy. When she wanted to attack the chickens, a big roaster came,  the cat was afraid of it and left the barn. She was waiting for another opportunity for hunting.

The next day, the red hen’s two chickens went outside the barn for playing with the black hen’s chicken. Meanwhile, the cat saw them and caught one of the chickens. When the black hen saw that the cat had caught a chicken, she became happy and went to the barn.

She counted the red hen’s chickens were safe but her one chicken was missing. She cried and went out of the barn. She saw that the red hen was fighting with the cat. The cat ran away, and she rescued the black hen’s chicken.

The black chicken regretted what she had done, and sheapologized to the red hen.
