White Rabbit

 Written by: Nasratullah Samim

A few rabbits were living in a forest far from the village. One day the gray rabbit was very sad. The black and white rabbit asked about the cause. The gray replied that her carrot field yielded less but the white rabbit’s field yielded more.

The black and white rabbit said that the white rabbit had worked hard in her field but the gray rabbit did not.

The gray rabbit said that she knows how to take the carrots from the white rabbit’s field.

The gray rabbit went to the white rabbit’s house and asked her why she doesn’t participate in other rabbits’ meetings. The gray rabbit added that as the white rabbit is wiser than other rabbits, all rabbits will accept his suggestion.

The white rabbit asked the gray about the meeting. The gray replied that rabbits are talking about saving carrots for the winter. The white rabbit said that she knows nothing about the storage of carrots. The gray rabbit encouraged her to take part in the meeting and share his opinion and all the other rabbits will approve it.

When the white rabbit reached the meeting, all rabbits were talking about the storage of carrots and they did not reach a result.

The white rabbit said that she knows better about the storage of carrots. All rabbits were eager to listen to what the white rabbit said.

The white rabbit added that it will be better if they store the carrots near the stream. All rabbits laughed and mocked the white rabbit.

A rabbit said if they store the carrots near the stream, the water will spoil them but the white rabbit did not accept and quarreled with them that why they did not accept their elder’s suggestion.

When the gray rabbit saw the situation, she became happy but the fight ended after the intermediate between the black and white rabbit.

The black and white rabbit advised the white rabbit to not share her suggestion with others when she doesn’t know about the issue otherwise she will lose all her friends and they will become her enemies but the white rabbit did not accept and said that she knows more than other rabbits.

The gray rabbit said to the white rabbit not to accept what the black and white rabbit said and added that the white rabbit has more knowledge.

The white rabbit said that she wants to collect carrots from his field but the gray rabbit stopped her and said that some bears in the forest wanted to distribute honey among them but they don’t know how to divide it. The gray rabbit sent the white rabbit to the bear’s house.

The white rabbit said that he knows who can take more honey. The white rabbit said that as the big bear worked more, she should take more and the weak bear would not get honey. All bears became angry and chased the white rabbit and hurt his leg and told to all animals in the forest to not let the white rabbit live in the forest anymore.

The white rabbit became sad. She left alone and no one was talking to her and she did not know why all this happened to her.

The black and white rabbit blamed the white rabbit for interfering in others’ work. Meanwhile, they saw that the gray rabbit was stealing carrots from the white rabbit’s field. The black and white and white rabbits ran toward her but the gray rabbit stole some carrots and ran away.

The white rabbit realized why the gray rabbit was encouraging her to give poor advice to others.
