The Secret of the Magical Rock
In a quiet green village at the foot of a giant mountain, lived two inseparable friends: Badr, a boy with a wild imagination and boundless energy, and Mazen, a calm and wise boy who loved contemplating nature. Everyone in the village called them "The Wings of a Bird" because they completed each other in everything.
One sunny morning, the two friends decided to explore the thick forest behind the village. As they climbed a small hill, something caught their eye, shining brightly behind a dense bush. They approached cautiously and were amazed to find a strange, smooth rock that glowed with rainbow colors whenever sunlight hit it.
The Exciting Discovery
"Look, Mazen!" Badr exclaimed excitedly. “It’s a magical rock! It must be worth a fortune.”
Mazen shook his head thoughtfully and said, “Its beauty is in its rarity, not its price, my friend. Let’s keep it a secret between us.”
The two friends agreed that the rock would be their "Secret Headquarters." They met there every day after school, sharing stories and dreaming of the future. The rock became a symbol of their strong bond. However, one day, greed and jealousy crept into Badr’s small heart. He thought, “Why don't I take the rock home? I want to be the only one who owns this beauty.”
The Test of Friendship
The next day, Badr went alone and tried to move the rock, but it was far too heavy. As he pushed with all his might, his foot slipped, and he tumbled into a deep pit hidden under fallen leaves. Badr screamed for help, but the forest was silent.
Fear and regret filled Badr’s heart. Suddenly, he heard a familiar voice calling: "Badr! Where are you?" It was Mazen, who had come looking for his friend.
Mazen didn't hesitate for a second. He took off his long scarf, tied it to a strong tree branch, and lowered it to Badr, saying, "Hold on tight, my friend, I am here with you!" Mazen pulled with all his strength until he brought Badr back to safety.
The True Treasure
Badr threw himself into his friend's arms, crying in apology: “Forgive me, Mazen. I thought of taking the rock for myself, but I discovered that the rock is just a cold stone, while your friendship is the warmth that saved my life.”
Mazen smiled sincerely and said, “Badr, the rock is beautiful because we see it together. Treasures have no value if we don’t have a friend to share them with.”
From that day on, Badr learned that friendship is not just about having fun, but about support in times of trouble and selflessness in times of plenty. The "Magical Rock" remained in its place, shining with its bright colors, witnessing a story of loyalty that would never end.Lifelong Companions: (Introduction to Badr and Mazen).
