Kiss Goodbye by Lee Hom

Singing Bear

I was sitting near the kitchen just now. And it was a delight + fearful = ?? I don't know how it sound like. My sister is at the kitchen. We should cook octopus like mom always did, which is " sotong masak kicap". But it was so mess up and we were arguing over this matter. You know brother and sister, always want to fight with each other. Well, I decided to cook it my way. Although I know that the octopus will hop here and there in the pan. My idea is to fry it as it is so tasteful and quite a long time I haven't eat fried octopus. While waiting, I read a story book. It was on the table. My little brother who owns it. I took the book and start reading. It is quite fun reading the book. the bear is actually singing. Wow! hee~ actually the bear is trapped in the forest. This is because the bear accidentally step the trap. Then, the bear start singing and singing until a boy heard him. The boy want to help him, but the boy have not enough strength to help the bear. With the voice that the bear have, he asked the bear to teach him how to sing. One day, the king make an audition. The audition is about searching the best singer to become one of the minister. Many people show up, including the boy. the first contestant, have a very soft and beautiful voice. The second contestant have a loud voice, just like Jacquline Victor. Then, it come to the boy. The boy asked for a special request. he want to sing where the beast in the jungle can hear him sing. The king bring the boy to the top of the castle. then, he said to the boy, " Since I have bring you up here, let's proceed with your singing." The boy agree and he start to open his mouth. It was so perfect. The song matched with the one that the bear sing and it was amazing. It was actually the bear who is singing that beautiful song.
The boy honestly tell the king that he was not the one who sing the song. It was the bear. The boy ask the king to release the bear so that he can be free. The king then granted the bear with a gift, which is becoming the minister of the country. Hmm.. I wonder how a bear can become a minister..THE END~
