Artui leh hmawlhte

 Once upon a time, an egg and a stick crossed paths and formed an extraordinary friendship. Surprisingly, both were skilled farmers, and they willingly toiled in each other's fields, concluding their labor with shared meals in a humble hut.

On a particular day, as they prepared to savor their meal, an unforeseen dilemma surfaced – they had no curry to accompany their rice. Swiftly, the egg proposed a brief pause, departed in search of a solution, and returned bearing a fried egg. This unconventional choice was embraced with delight, and they relished their meal together.

Another day, relentless rain poured down, bringing a chill to the air. Desiring both sustenance and warmth, they faced an obstacle – the absence of firewood and the means to kindle a fire. In response, the stick volunteered for a mission. It ventured out, willingly breaking itself into smaller fragments, which were then set ablaze. The stick returned triumphant, bearing not only fire but also the means to keep it alight. With gratitude, they prepared their food and basked in the comforting glow of the fire, their spirits lifted by the warmth and companionship they shared.
