    In the heart of the forest, a parrot and a crow lived as friends. The crow was hardworking, always searching for food. The parrot, on the other hand, was lazy and always relied on the crow for food.

    One day, a severe famine hit the forest. All animals and birds began searching for food. The hardworking crow and the lazy parrot also flew off in search of food, heading towards the city.

    The crow, cautious and wise, warned the parrot about the dangers of the city. However, the parrot, with its laid-back attitude, did not heed the crow's advice and flew straight into a bird cage in the park.

    The parrot felt happy as he found plenty of food in the cage. Despite being a prisoner, he was satisfied because he did not have to work for his food.

    Meanwhile, the crow was free and happy. He continued his search for food, cherishing his freedom and the joy of self-reliance.

    As days passed, the parrot began to feel the pinch of captivity. He missed the freedom of the forest and started to regret his decision.

    The parrot, realizing his mistake, apologized to the crow for not heeding his advice. He promised to change his ways if he ever got another chance.

    Eventually, the parrot was released from the cage. He flew back to the forest, promising himself that he would no longer be lazy.
