Sooth & Ilu​

Sitting on a tree beside a stream on a sunny day, a parrot and a hen waited for one random couple just like every day. Beneath them were a few stones on which these couples rested while the parrot called Sooth & the hen was called Ilu listened to them.

Sooth:

I challenge you to show me a man at least today who would never let go of his lover and I shall give you every tasty fruit I will gather all my life.

[Ilu stayed silent considering how she failed yesterday]

Sooth:

I challenge in confidence because I know for a fact that even when the world is filled with happiness, these superior creations and their hearts are filled with discontent. They rejoice pain and sorrow while seeking revenge even when they know it doesn’t give them any satisfaction.

[After a moment of silence]

Sooth:

But what more could be expected from a race in which the majority of them don’t even try to understand the difference between love and lust?

Ilu:

I shall show you today a couple just beneath this tree who shall love dearly until their time and I shall snatch away all your tasty fruits. That’s the price you shall have to pay for your foolish remarks.
