Answer:

It is the story of an unusual pet, a Mongoose. The story begins with a farmer suggesting to his wife that they should get a pet as a companion for their small son. The farmer’s wife likes the idea and the farmer brings home a baby Mongoose as a pet. In five to six months the Mongoose grows to its full size while the farmer’s son is still a baby in the cradle who mostly either cries or sleeps.   One day the farmer’s wife goes to the market. She tells the farmer that the baby is sleeping and he should keep an eye on him. She also expresses her discomfort of leaving the child with the fully grown Mongoose. But, the farmer takes this lightly. He tells his wife that the Mongoose is very friendly and she should not be afraid. Once the wife leaves for the market the farmer also goes to his fields.   When the farmer’s wife returns from the market with a bagful of groceries the Mongoose greets her as always. But, she notices blood on the face and paws of the Mongoose and assuming that the Mongoose has killed her son, she hits the Mongoose hard with her heavy grocery bag. She then runs inside the house to check on her son who, she finds, is sleeping calmly. On the floor, though, is a black snake all torn up and bleeding.  Realizing that the Mongoose had actually saved the life of her son, she runs out again to check on the Mongoose. She touches the Mongoose and realizes that the Mongoose is dead. She cries and feels repentant for hastily coming to a conclusion and killing the mongoose.
