Humble friend

by shazia
There was a man named Haroon who lived in the desert of That near PakIndia border.He had many camels which were his source of income, he used them as transport and luggage carrier and lived on their rent.He had a small family and lived happily with his only son named Zavar and his beloved wife Nooran.When Zavar was 18years old Haroon took him to the market and bought a beautiful camel for him.Zavar was young strong man and loved his camel very much, carefully he looked after him and fed it himself.One day when Zavar was cutting grass for his pet, he saw that his camel was angrily running towards him, he was shocked and realized that it was the sign of danger and himself started to run as fast as he could.
The camel was madly after Zavar and wanted to tear him into pieces,when his father Haroon saw this situation he called his servant and both of them ran after the camel and holded the camel hard but the camel was so furious and excited that he kicked them both.The camel was again after Zavar,in this situation Zavar was very frightened and could not sought out untill he reached near an old well which was empty and dark and full of thorns since years.Zavar spontaneously jumped in the well to save himself from the camel and shouted for help.
The camel was till then after him and put his head on the wall of the well and started to search him but he could not reach Zavar as he was quite far away from him.After jumping in the well Zavar was brutly injured as this well was full of thorns and stones.Zavar, shouted for help but nobody responded,he then started to pray from God to save him in this situation, as he was praying immediately he saw that a black coloured small snake came out of the broken wall of the well.Zavar praised the snake and stood still though he was afraid from inside and told his whole story to the snake as it was listening him.After he had finished the story he saw that the snake went out of the well and then after short while returned back and went in the hole again. Zavar stood in the well for about half an hour and realized that his camel'shead was statue at the corner of the well this was unexpected situation so he tried hard to getout of the well and succeeded at last.He then saw that three was no movement in his camel,as he jumped out of the well his foot slipped on the stomach of his camel and it went inside the stomach as it was made of foam or something like that, he saw that his camel was rotten and damaged and green colored smelly fluid was coming out of his face and whole body, he fought hard toget out and was trying to understand the situation he saw that his father and his servant were searching for him .He shouted at them for help and they ran towards himZavar was completely tired and paralysed due to injuries they rescued him and took him to the doctor, who saw his foot and injuries and gave him medicines
When they reached back homeZavar had bad pain in his foot that he could nt manage.His father again took him to the hospital near by, they examined him and told his father that his sons foot is destroyed due to the poison of the snake, so they have to cut off his foot to save his life .Haroon was very upset but to save his sons life he had to sacrifice his foot.
After six months Zavar was perfect and could easily walk on sticks .His father after that sold all his camels and brought goats and buffaloes instead Zavar now used to milk his buffaloes and sells milk of his animals to survive .He from that time created a new routine, he used to fill a pot of milk and put it near the old well to feed his humble friend "The Snake",who saved his life .He continued this routine for years and years and flourished a lot.
