TRUE LOVE AND LOYALTY [2]


               Once in Greece, there lived a boy named Unos. He was very poor, and lived mother in a small hut just near the foot of a large hill. He had no any job to be done .  His mother , had suffered a lot to feed him as he liked. He loved his mother very much. He was always in the thought that it was impossible for him to live in the world without his mother s presence.


            One day. Unous was walking home after a long journey to a forest. On the way back, he saw a very beautiful girl resting on a rock near the valley. He was very much infatuated by her beauty , and wanted  to marry her, He made love with her, and wanted her to marry him. But, she said, "My dear friend! I don `t know how much you love me.Can I believe you? " To this remark, Unos said with a setimental  touch in his voice, " Oh my love! My feeling for you cannot be fathomed . That much is my love . "She said. "To prove your love, I need your mother ,s heart Can you give it to me?"
                                                                               

           Hearing this ruthless statement, Unos was heavily thunderstruck. In moment, he became in an unconcious  state, because he loved his mother more than anything else. He came back home saying good-bye to his lady love.


              At home,Unos was seen striken  by some melancholy . His mother could not tolerate his indifference and vexation. She asked what happened to him . He said all about the girl who wanted his mother,s hear. The affectionate mother had always wanted her son .s happiness only She said to him to take away her to his lady love.


             Unos  killed his mother, and after taking the heart out, ran to the valley where he found his lady-love.On the way, he had to climb up and the hill. Keeping the still alive heart in hand, he began to ascend the hill. But, abruptly, he stumpled down, and the heart was bounced away from his hand.


              Unos was injured on both his legs. He saw his mother ,s heart climbing  up the hill, and calling him to make haste. It said, "My dear son! Why are you tired? Follow me as quickly as possible to reach your lady-love. Otherwise, you will lose her for ever"


             Unos sat there motionless thinking of his dearest mother. He remembered that his mother had loved him truly and loyally without expecting anything from him. In the recognition of his mother,s unfathomable love, he lamented.
