    Once upon a time, in a small village, lived a cat named Bilhi. Known for her intelligence and cunning, Bilhi was the center of many tales.

    One day, driven by hunger and thrill, Bilhi decided to venture into the forest. As she roamed around, she encountered several animals and used her wit to secure food.

    During her travels, Bilhi came across a community of mice who were terrified of her. She assured them that she had changed her ways and wouldn't harm them anymore.

    She promised them protection in exchange for food every day. The mice, eager to avoid being eaten, agreed to Bilhi's conditions.

    Thanks to the mice, Bilhi was living a life of comfort and plenty. Her days were filled with rest and food, with no effort on her part.

    However, her greed began to grow. She started demanding more food and services from the mice, who were already struggling to meet her increasing demands.

    One day, the mice gathered to discuss Bilhi's unreasonable demands. They realized that they were working more for Bilhi and less for themselves.

    They decided to confront Bilhi and tell her that they couldn't continue catering to her demands. The mice approached Bilhi with their concerns.

    Bilhi was taken aback when she heard the mice's complaints. She realized her greed had blinded her to the hardship she was causing them.

    She apologized to the mice for her behavior and promised to change. She also offered to help the mice with their work to make up for her past actions.

    Bilhi stuck to her word and started helping the mice. She realized the value of hard work and the importance of not taking others for granted.

    Eventually, Bilhi became a beloved member of the mouse community. She learned that greed leads to downfall, and it's important to respect and value others' efforts.
