A boy with a bear-cup : Pailin

 

A boy with a bear-cup

There was a small family living in the wood. There were colorful flowers beside the house and butterflies and bees roaming around. The deer and bears came to this field sometimes. A boy was the youngest one in the family. He loved to go to sit at the creek behind the house. One day, he went behind the house again , he sat on the rock near the creek and threw small rocks into the water and sang rabbit song that his mom sang to him while he was a younger boy. Suddenly, he saw a bear-cup walking toward him. A bear-cup was very hungry and made a sound like a baby bea…bea….It was so skinny. He was so excited and so sad to see him hungry. Then, he gave a piece of cookies to it and gentle put his hand on a cup’s head. While he enjoyed feeding and playing with the bear-cup ,he saw a buck (male-deer) and doe (female-deer) jumped up to the creek and ran away to the deep wood. His father came from other side of the creek hold an archery in his hand. The boy guessed that his father would went hunting in the wood. His father interrupted him and told him to stop feeding and playing because the bear-mother might come to get her cup and might hurt him. He was not happy but kept him safe and he followed his father back home.

I just noticed later and would like to leave it as cross the line over the word “would”…* would go not would went and in the story just the word “went”

Mali and family : Park, bicycle, busy city

 Mali and family

Nowadays, people are living in rush and always competing to each other and time. Everyone tries to live well but not all happy.


Mali, 17 years old girl lives in a medium size house in a countryside, 2 hours away from the city. She has 3 brothers 15, 14 , 11  and 1 sister 10 years old. She is the biggest kid whom parents trusted to manage the house and taking care of younger kids when they go to work in the city.  Her parents own a bakery shop in the city. Mali and her siblings  work at the shop on weekends. They enjoy and fun with work, especially when parents give them money for what they have done each time.

Every Fridays night, Mali and younger kids will prepare everything ready for stay over at the family store in the city. They must finish their homework as well because it is the family condition, if not then stay home is a punishment. The children always take responsibility to finish their homework and earn money from the bakery owner (their parents) with joy.


They leave home about 7am and get to the store an hour before open and stay an hour after store close at 8pm. for cleaning. The parents are the best baker in the city. There are three employees rotating weekly schedule, two employees stand by in the store and one delivery using a motor bike.  On weekend, younger kids work in the shop with parents and Mali does delivery job. It is very fun and exciting.

The bakery shop is located at the intersection where is super busy during rush hours as morning, noon and evening. The sounds from the car engines, the honk, the bicycle bell, construction sites and etc, all around the area but seem not bother people. Fortunately, there is a huge public park in the area, the lung of the city where always full of people at all time. They do activities all day long in groups or alone. There are many trees and shady, also  the grills provided for set up picnics and the boats for rent at the big pond. Besides, the fountain spot is popular as well where the food venders settled in a huge gazebo.

Mali enjoys working in the city but she prefers living at the countryside as they are, no traffic, no loud sounds, no pollution.

 Childhood Memory 

(about farm by Oath)

 Jonathan is on the train, traveling from Zurich to Lucerne Switzerland. It takes about 41 to 50 minutes. The spectacular scenic along the distance reminds him to his childhood. His parents lived in a small town in England where he was born and grew up. People there did farming and did not worry about money. They exchanged food by gathering their produces and store at the town cooperative. Everyone grew different fruits, vegetables, flowers and plants. Also, raised animals for milk, meat and eggs. Each family took enough for a day and never wasted crops. There were 30 cottages in the village with 200 population, 150 adults and 50 children.It was a huge windmill at the river that could see from far away.Every live in the village use the water from here. The water came from the mountains, even they believed the water was clean ,still always boiling before drinking. 
 

Smoke was coming from chimneys in the mornings and evenings ,the sign of cooking in process. There was a big barn near the raised area where animals feeding. There were piles of straw and hey around the barn. There was a tools storage next to the barn. It was a sharing center where villagers could use the farming tools . 

 Jonathan’s father was the community chef and his job was visiting every family and ensure that produces enough and ready for merchants to pick up every Thursday. They grew fruits such as apples, apricots, peaches , cherries , corn. There was a huge area next to the river where grew vegetables like kale, green onion, onion, potatoes, tomatoes, melons, squashes, peppers, chillies, limes, lemons and more. His mother was the leader of women feeding animals, milk cows, collected chickens and ducks eggs, taking care of horses, pigs, goats and sheep. The animals area was across the river. 

 Even though, the villagers do not need money for living but sometimes they had to spend money for clothing and consuming items which they did not construct in the community. 

 The train stops that brings Jonathan back to the real time. He gets off the train with a big smile.

Pranee went to the coffee shop 331station last month. It was a huge area which had been modified from three planes and set up separately. Each plane was decorated the same for welcome customers. Inside, the counter stays in the middle of the plane for taking orders. There are seats near the windows and middle of the plane and also a wide aisle. Therefore, customers can choose to sit and sip a drink according to their requirement. Moreover, customers can visit the cockpit and take photos. In addition, waitresses wear the uniform as flight attendant. They are very friendly, polite and take good care of customers. 

Pranee ordered a chocolate smoothie then sat down near the window, started sipping and took photos. Next, she would like to show a wonderful time and recommended a perfect coffee shop. She was very happy and loved that time.

On the windy morning, the monkeys are on the coconut trees in the garden. Some of them run on green grass. They like milk. In the afternoon, they walk on the fence when the storm comes  and they jump to the windows. In Summer, they like to swim in the pond. There are many ducks at the side of the boat in that pond.

story and illustration by me “Oath”





“Shhh” a young crow stops an old buffalo who is making very loud noise. “Stop annoying me black”, an old buffalo said with frustrating voice. “Go away”. “Shhhh! don’t you hear that , old man?”, a young crow on an old buffalo’s back said. “What?” an old buffalo replied. 
“Be quiet!”, a tiny crow replied.




It is late in the afternoon, two friends are in the middle of sunflower field. The sun is not angry today because he does not shine so hot. There is a huge and short coconut tree among the sunflowers where two friends have been settled since  the morning.



“Help, Help!”
“Do you hear that, old man?”  a tiny crow asked
“Yeah, it comes from behind, I will go check” an old buffalo replied
“Wait, I’ll go with you and please walk slowly so I can stay on your back still.” 

After that, two friends are heading toward the noise.

“Hey you, both of you” The two animals stop walking and looking around but they do not see anyone then they continue walking.
“Hey you, both of you.”

“Where are you?” the old buffalo shouted.
“I am here, look up”. 
“The Sun!” two animals said in the same time.
“Yes, it’s me”, the sun answered. “You must hurry go to the hut over there before water from that angry river hit it. There is a sick snake in the hut. Please go help her. She is not harm”. 

Suddenly, an old buffalo starts running while the tiny black on his back is flying ahead.
“Hurry up old man, she is here”. The buffalo is straighten to the hut and hit it hard until all sides collapse. There is a skinny white snake with four eggs inside.

“Can you  move” the tiny black crow asked.
“Yes, but I am not strong enough to hold my babies”, the white snake answers with tear.
“Here, put your eggs in a coconut shell and I will take care them for you.” the buffalo puts the coconut shell next to the white snake.
“Hurry up, hurry up, we must go now. The river is very angry and he is coming” the tiny black crow is shouting.

All are moving fast and not long, they are back to the coconut tree. 
“You and your babies stay here tonight and we will be back tomorrow. We will help you build a hut close by the coconut tree after lunch.” The old buffalo said to the white snake while taking coconut leaves cover on her eggs.

“Thank you both of you for saving us”

Vacation in Paradise

 


The Simsons, father, mother, two daughters and a little boy are on the boat. They are going to Samui Island. Yes, they chose to visit Thailand for a vacation.

They prepared for this trip two months. They searched and figured what they were allowed or not allowed to do in Thailand and what they should prepared for both things and health. This is the first long distance trip from America to other country for them. Of course, they are excited.

The Simsons are among other tourists on the boat. It is a huge boat. About 2 hours after the boat left the pier, it stopped in the middle of the sea. The crew threw a giant anchor into the sea. They threw it by mechanical control.

The sea water is really clear but too deep to see under. The weather is great even it is evening time now. The situation like this could make a person who gets angry calm down so easy. The wind blows softy touching mother’s long hair.

“Ummm, it is  the right decision we made to come here” mother said.
“Yes, and I am so happy we are here together today and also I can be away from my annoying boss for a while”, father replied.

“MOM” a little boy is shouting. “LOOK!” the boy is pointing to the deck on the second floor of the  boat. There is a woman sitting beside a boy who is laying down on the floor. The woman looks really anxious.
“Anybody help!” the woman is shouting. Suddenly, the crew and people in the area come to her and asked what happened? A big crew guy holds her son up and brings him to the clinic on the boat. We knew later that the boy was playing and hit the boat handrail by accident that made him pass out.

He is fine now because we see him with his mother when the boat stops at the island and everyone moves from the boat to the resorts which the tour company provided.

The two daughters are smiling at each other.
One daughter said to another, ” I have not seen anywhere like this place at home. It is a cool place.”
“WOW! I love it here. It is beautiful like we are in Paradise”, the little boy said.
