Musu, the little mouse lived with his mother inside the hollow of a mango tree.
His mother worried about him a lot as he was quite gullible and careless. So, she constantly had to keep an eye on him.
One day, Musu’s mother had to go out to run an important errand. Before leaving, she told Musu, “Son, I’m going out for a while. Don’t go out of the house till I’m back. And do not open the door to any stranger. There are wild cats around. They are always looking for an opportunity to prey on us.”
“I will be careful, Mom,” assured Musu.
As soon as his mother left, Musu locked the door from inside. He laid down on his bed and started reading a story book.
Only a few minutes had passed when he heard a voice outside the door: “Free sweets for everyone! Free sweets!”
Musu ran towards the door but then he remembered his mother’s warning and stopped.
A while later, Musu heard the voice again: “Free sweets for everyone! Come and get your free sweets!”
This time, Musu could not resist going out and getting the free sweets. Overcome by greed, he opened the door. He peeped outside but could not see anyone.
