The Story of Yonni

Posted in: Other - Short Stories

In a small mountain village there was a little boy named Yonny. Yonny was a good boy, who was loved by everyone in the village.

Everyday, Yonny would get up, put on his trousers and red cap and go do his chores. He would feed the mule, milk the goats, and get water for his family. Yonny didn't mind doing his chores. He liked to help people. Until one day...

Yonny woke up in a fit of rage! In anger he kicked down the door and killed the mule and two goats. He swore and banged his head on the wall. His family didn't know what to do, and before they could take any action, Yonny ran away to the fields of the mountains. There, Yonny lived with the wild beasts. He learned from all of them how to live. The wolves taught him to hunt! The gazelle taught him to run like the wind! The mountain goats taught him to climb! Yonny became a strong and mighty man. So strong that on many occasions, one could see Yonny butting heads with the strongest of mountain goats. But Yonny was not immortal. He was only a man, and one day he fell off a cliff.
