..........Gradually both kids were growing up. Tweety's wings were taking shape whereas Vicky was developing black hair strands on his back. His tailwas turning long and hairy.
They did not have mirror to look at, so they enquire each other about their looks and health.
They looked at their mothers and waited for the day, when they would be fully grown up."
Vicky would say, "When I grow up like my mother, I will jump around the trees and will eat fruits all by myself.".
Then Tweety would reply, "you are only worried about eating. I would like to go for long flights like my mother does.
"Just you wait till my wings become powerful!
"My mother says that by next week, I will be able to undertake short flights."
After a couple of days, both Vicky and Tweety started coming out of their respective houses.
Romi and Bony often played and ate goodies under the tree where Vicky and Tweety lived.
Later, Vicky and Tweety would climb down in search of food.
That day, Romi and Bony were eating walnuts and resins.
The moment they left the place, Vicky jumped down and started eating leftovers. Soon, Tweety also joined him.
Sudenly, Vicky found a small walnut lying on the ground. He asked Tweety, "This fruit is very hard. How to break it open?"
Tweety became thoughtful. Then she spoke after a pause, "There is a way out. You take this fruit to the top of the tree and drop it from there. It is sure to break open.Then we can enjoy its content."
"It is difficult to carry the hard and round fruit to the top. But still let me try. You remain down below and don't finish off the kernel. Okey," said Vicky.
Tweety felt offended and said in a sad voice, "Don't you trust me? We birds are in the habit of sharing the food.
"Moreover, you are my friend. Why would I ever do such a thing?"
"But I am not going to share the walnut with you", said Vicky and somehow took the fruit on the top.
Then he dropped it from the top and quickly climbed down. The walnut broke into two pieces but the kernel wasstill inside the two halves of the shell. It was just not possible for him to take the kernel out of it.
Then Vicky remembered Tweety and thought, "If only Tweety had been here, she would have taken out the kernel easily from the hard shell. But feeling hurt, she has already left. Now what should I do?"
"Tweety... Tweety! Where are you? Please come down. I am really sorry to have offended you. Please forgive me." Vicky called out for his friend. Tweety came down flying and removed the kernel from the shell of the walnut.
Vicky said, "How nice of you Tweety! I did not treat you well, still you have helped me.
"Come, let us eat the walnut together."
Hearing him, Tweety's anger withered away.
Later, Vicky spoke to Tweety, "Tweety, hereafter I will try to be a good friend like you.
