Journey to the City
Champak|October Second 2023
Anandvan was a dense forest surrounded by the Himalayan mountains. Bobo bear was the king of this forest. One day, Christy crow came from the city to visit. The forest residents warmly welcomed him, but Christy was not fond of living there. He wasn't happy to see how different the forest was from the city.

Journey to the City

"How isolated is your way of living! Have you ever even come out of this forest?" he said with a grimace.

"No, we have never been to the city," said King Bobo.

"That's why you don't know how much progress has been made in the world these days," Christy said. "You don't know what's happening with humans and what they have achieved."

"You tell us how everyone lives in the city," King Bobo asked.

"You should go and see for yourself. I can tell you the shortcut to the city," said Christy, pointing out the way before flying back.

King Bobo immediately gathered the animals and birds of his forest and announced, "We should go to the city and find out how people live there."

Faran fox and Jojo jackal immediately got ready to go to the city.

"Kalu and Balu crows should go there first. They can quickly hide in a tree in case of any trouble. Only after they find out more about the city life will we decide whether it's right for us to go there or not," King Bobo declared.

Kalu and Balu were very happy to hear this and immediately flew on the path shown by Christy. After a long journey, they reached the city.

First, they saw a field where some boys were playing football.

Kalu and Balu sat and watched the match, making sure to maintain their distance from the humans to avoid any danger.

"They are very weak. So many of them are hitting an odd watermelon together, and they can't even break it," said Kalu.

"You are right. Now let's eat something first, I'm very hungry," said Balu.

"But there aren't many trees here. Where will we find fruits?" Kalu said.

Then their eyes fell upon a sweet shop. It had various kinds of sweets on display, and their aroma filled the air. Many people were eating them.
