Centi

But not any of those could stand upto “Centi” ,he waltzed  his way dancing and running from place to place till he saw a palace and stopped there. He looked around and suddenly saw his father chopping woods in the scorching heat of the day. He was sweating profusely. “Centi” ran to his father, “Daddy, Why did you left the house leaving us?Mummy has bean crying since then?”

The Woodcutter was surprised seeing his ten centimeter son, but realized he was not an ordinary baby-man. He picked up his son for the first time , held him close to his chest and kissed him for a long time. Then he said,”my darling child, it is not possible for me to go home now. I have sold myself to the king”. 

Centi left his father and went to the king.

“Oh , your highness who chops wood for your kingdom? 

The king was surprised to see “centi” and said, “Who the hell are you? A draft woodcutter from foreign land , chops wood as much as he can”.

-“Where does the woodcutter live? Please give the woodcutter to me, your majesty,” requested ‘centi’.

-Yes, one businessman had brought him to me. The fellow has a very big head! I bought him for one pence, I shall give him to you , but”

-“But what your majesty?Asked centi.

-“ Arrange for one pence, them come to this palace.”

On hearing this, centi returned to his father and explained the situation, “Dad don’t you worry, everything will work out. Now I am going to arrange for one pence” He left.

Centi started running like a rocket and reached the bank of a canal. He started considering how could he cross the canel.
