Once upon a time, in the animal kingdom, Mr. Tortoise and his friends, Mr. Rabbit, Mr. Fox, Mr. Elephant, and Mr. Deer, received an invitation to a grand wedding ceremony.
As they made their way to the celebration, the tortoise had a cunning idea. "When we arrive at the wedding," he said with a sly smile, "I want you all to address me as 'All of You'."
His friends exchanged puzzled glances but decided to play along, not wanting to spoil the tortoise's fun on such a joyful occasion.
Upon arrival at the wedding, the friends were greeted by the festive atmosphere and the aroma of delicious food. As they mingled with the other guests, the tortoise proudly proclaimed, "From now on, please address me as 'All of You'!"
His friends obediently complied, and soon everyone at the wedding was calling Mr. Tortoise "All of You." The tortoise beamed with pride, feeling like the center of attention.
However, as the celebration progressed, the tortoise's cunning plan began to unravel. Whenever someone offered food or drinks, they would say, "All of You, would you like some?" And the tortoise would eagerly respond, "Yes, I would!"
His friends watched in dismay as the tortoise indulged in all the food and drinks, feeling betrayed by his actions. When the wedding was over, the other animals left the tortoise to fend for himself, refusing to assist him due to his gluttony.
The tortoise, who had overeaten, was too full to walk back home. It took him two whole days to recover and make his way back to the animal kingdom, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.
The tortoise learned a valuable lesson about the importance of honesty and not trying to deceive others for personal gain. From that day forward, he was more mindful of his actions, and his friends forgave him for his transgression.
