Once upon a time, there lived a man named Elias and he was a photographer. One fine day he went to the forest to take some photos, and while he was taking photos, he found a tiger hiding behind him. He was scared and started running; the tiger pulled him and bit his leg. He was not able to walk anymore. Suddenly a gorilla came and rescued him and took him to its house which was on top of the tree. The tiger was sitting under the tree to hunt the human. The gorilla and Elias decided to have shift-based sleep, that is when Elias sleeps the gorilla must be awake, and vice versa. When Elias slept, the tiger called the gorilla and told him to push the man from the tree citing the fact that humans are selfish. But the gorilla never responded to the tiger. When the time came for the man to stay awake the tiger tried the same cunning trick with him. The tiger now was asking the man to push the gorilla down so that it would eat the gorilla and leave the man, the man believed in the tiger’s words and pushed the gorilla down. The gorilla fell and was scared. The tiger smirked at the gorilla and said “See I told you not to believe humans because they are selfish and evil, now go and push the man down I will eat him”. The gorilla went back, and the man was so scared of the gorilla. The gorilla went near the man and said, “Don’t be scared I will not push you down”. Elias relaxed and felt guilty for being selfish. The next day morning the gorilla sent the man safely to his place.
