Zane zebra also lived in Anandvan. He did not like the friendship between Zizu and Roro. Often, he would talk to Zizu about it.
One early morning, he met Zizu.
"How's everything? How are you, Zizu?" Zane said, shaking hands.
"All is well. You tell me about yourself. What are you doing during the holidays?" Zizu asked.
"Nothing! Just rambling in the jungle," Zane replied.
"Roro and I are joining coding classes during the holidays," Zizu said.
"Who, Roro? That tiny rat? You have made friends with that rat! Everyone is making fun of your friendship. I am also amused by your friendship. On one hand, you are the leader of our group, clever, intelligent and an expert at climbing trees. And on the other hand, you are friends with that tiny rat. You are not bothered about the respect and dignity of us zebras," Zane said, mocking Zizu.
"How can you say that! You should not think less of anyone because of their size or appearance. Everyone has their own importance. We should all live in coexistence. We should help each other. In friendship, there is nothing like big and small. Caste, racism, regional differences, nothing!" Zizu said.
Hearing this, Zane hesitated, then said, "All right, as you wish. It's your friendship. I don't care. But, still, I'm telling you. Your friendship does not match with that rat!"
"You should become friends with him, too. Then all three of us can have lots of fun. Roro is very good. If you talk to him just once, you will enjoy his company," Zizu said lovingly.
