143. Man and tiger

When a tiger was striding around, it fell in a trap. The tiger had tried its best to get out the trap but it couldn’t the trap was so solid. Fortunately, a man somehow crossed the place.
“Hello!” said the tiger loudly while the man looked around, “I’m here.” added the tiger.
“Why are you here man?” said the tiger when the man approached it, “Do you know that you are in danger. I have to remind that is very dangerous as you are in here my fellows are hunting in   this area. But,” it stopped, “you are very lucky meeting me here. I will help you go out this forest without any injury. So, come here and help me get out this trap”.
“You will not kill me if you get rid of the trap, will you”, said the man incredulously.
“God”, the tiger laughed, “I am respected as a god here that I have never betrayed my words. I, king of all animals, will never forget your help. That will be a favor if you help me get rid of the trap”.
The man had no doubting he approached the trap and help the tiger get out. Thought that the tiger would kept its words and acted gratefully but, when the tiger got out of the trap, it stretched   and roared as thunder that made the man frightened.
“Alas! You make me deaf”, squealed the man.
In opposition to its words before, the tiger turned bad.
“Oh! My voice made you unpleasant, doesn’t it”, it smirked, “Don’t worry. I will help you. You will be my lunch now”.
“How can”, said the man, “forget all words you have just said?
“Right! I have to thank you because of saving me but I am hungry days so that nothing can prevent me to fill my stomach”, said the tiger.
While the tiger was finding the way to negate his words, the God ruled that mountain heard about their story. God wanted to help the man so God transformed into a savage man with ferocious face. His enormous eyes glared them.
“What’s wrong with you?” God thundered, “Who is right? Who is wrong? I will judge”.
The man honestly said God what had happened but the tiger lied that it told him another story.
“It is wrong.” Said the tiger, “You see. I just took a rest in there few minutes ago but this man came and tried to annoy me. Besides, he planned to hurt me. So, you know, I have to kill him”.
“You’re right.” God said, “You can kill anyone who dare to annoy you but I have to doubt that there is not your place.” God pointed at the trap, “How can you stay in the narrow place with your huge body. I only trust you when I see you stay in there”.
To prove what it said was true the tiger found the way to go in the trap. Immediately, God mad the trap acted.
“Bastard! You dare to kill the person who saved you.” God scolded, “Now no one can save you”.
God turned to the man and said:
“And that is the lesson for you that you can treat well to kind and grateful others but you do never treat well to the wicked”
