There lived a farmer called Muna. He and his wife were blessed with two boys, Wang'ombe and Kiongo.

The boys helped their parents in the house as well as taking their cattle to graze.

Wang'ombe loved to graze the cattle while Kiongo liked to play in the nearby bushes.

He would climb up the trees and chase little monkeys. The monkeys would in turn jump from one branch to another.

Wang'ombe did not like his brother's way of having fun. He thought it was dangerous and a waste of time.

Kiongo however, would hear none of those warnings even from his parents.

Kiongo even accused Wang'ombe of being a jealous brother. He swore that he would continue with his cheeky activities.

One day they were grazing their animals near a river. Kiongo came up with an idea. He wanted to show off.

"Wang'ombe!" he yelled at his brother to get his attention. He then dove into the foamy river ignoring the huge rocks that stuck out.

He wanted to show off his new swimming style. However, he was soon caught up inside the roaring splashes.

Wang'ombe stood by the shallow water. He watched and hoped that Kiongo would soon come up and swim towards the river bank.

Two minutes went by, then three and four and five. There was no sign of little Kiongo.

Then a stream of red water started oozing from the place that he had dived into. Wang'ombe panicked. He knew that his brother was injured.

He swam into the river to try and rescue his naughty brother.

By the time his brother got him out of the water, blood was gushing from his face. He was injured on his cheek.

He was crying and begging his brother not to report the incident when they got home.

The injury was impossible to hide. Kiongo was taken to the hospital for treatment and finally he got well.

He had learnt to listen to advice.
