Her husband tried to convince her that he and the monkey shared a true friendship. So she pretended that she could not believe that her husband could be friends with a monkey. She wanted to put an end to this friendship. The crocodile’s wife started getting jealous. Meanwhile, the friendship between the monkey and the crocodile deepened as they spent more and more time together. The crocodile’s wife loved the rose apples and made her husband promise to get her some every day. So the kind monkey offered him some extra rose apples to take home to his wife. The crocodile told the monkey that he had a wife and that they lived on the other side of the river. They discussed their lives, their friends and family, like all friends do. The crocodile enjoyed them very much and asked the monkey whether he could come again for some more fruit. The kind monkey offered him a few rose apples. One fine day, a crocodile swam up to that tree and told the monkey that he had traveled a long distance and was in search of food as he was very hungry. Once upon a time, a clever monkey lived in a tree that bore juicy, red rose apples.
