Little Malik’s Adventure

Little Malik’s Adventure

One day, Little Malik was walking alone in a forest next to the Mason’s house. Little Malik was an orphan; his parent had died in a fire that burned their old house. The Masons, a family friend of theirs, adopted Little Malik after the incident. He grew up happily with the Masons; they treated him like a member of their own family. They didn’t ’want anything in return, but Little Malik wanted to repay their kindness, so that’s why he was walking in the forest that day. He was trying to find something, something special, and something that he can use as a gift. But he didn’t even know what he was looking for!
After wondering around for hours, Little Malik decided to go back home and search again tomorrow. On his way back, an old man appeared in front of him. The old man seems nice and surprisingly, he knows about Malik’s problem.
“Good afternoon, young man! Taking a walk on this bright and sunny day?”
“Huh? Oh! Yes, I am, but I’m going home now”
“Hmmm… You seem very troubled, young man.”
“I am, I can’t seem…. “
“Can’t find a present for your family?”
“Yes! But how did you know?”
“Hohoho, I have my ways. But what’s more important is your present. And luckily, I know just the thing.”
According to him, deep in forest lies a gigantic plant that has the world’s most beautiful flower. Little Malik was amazed and decided that the flower was the perfect gift for the Masons. After thanking the kind old man, Little Malik quickly head off in search of the flower. The old man smiled. He purposely didn’t tell Little Malik that the plant was being guarded by a horrifying beast, making it difficult to get the flower.
When Little Malik finally found the plant, he was terrified to see that a monster was blocking his way. He couldn’t possibly get the flower! And the monster looks as if it wanted to kill him. Little Malik quickly run as far as he could from the monster while looking for a place to hide. After climbing a tall tree, Little Malik begins to think. How can he get the flower if the beast was there? Even though he was afraid, he still wanted to give the flower to the Mason. I have to think of a plan, Little Malik thought.
Little Malik down the tree, and begin searching for some rocks. After he was sure he had enough, Little Malik went back to find the beast. Fortunately, the monster was still guarding the plant and didn’t seem to notice him. Little Malik quickly threw some rocks. BRAK!!! The monster thinking it was a sound of an intruder, quickly went off to the source of the sound, leaving the plant unguarded. Little Malik quickly used the opportunity to grab the flower. He then ran as fast as he could back home without looking back.
Back at the Mason’s house, the Mason was waiting for Little Malik. It was already late and Little Malik hasn’t return yet. Just as they were beginning to get worried, Little Malik quickly went in thru the door. He was dirty, and he looks tired and happy at the same time. Before the Masons could ask, Little Malik begins telling his adventure and handed the flower to the Masons. The Masons were so surprised! They were angry that Little Malik was careless, but they were glad that he was safe. They were also very amazed by the flower. The old man was right; it was the most beautiful in the world! Speaking of the old man, he was right outside their house, watching everything that had happen inside. Giving one last smile, the old man begins to leave.
