Brothers
Once upon a time in a very small country there lived two brothers,
more than that, they were twins. One of them was Pontik and the
other Bespontik.
They lived in a small house near woods and river,
their life was quite and wonderful. Pontik was very clever and
loved his brother very much. But Bespontik did not like to spend
time with his brother very much, he was very uncommunicative. Pontik
was ugly and Bespontik was handsome, despite the fact of being
twins.
They had neighbour, a pretty girl Dombra. In childhood all
three were good friends and spent time together every day.
But
one day both brothers understood they loved her and it was the
beginning of conflict between them. Now when all three walked together,
brothers did not pay attention to Dombra but quarreled and quarreled.
Dombra felt very hurt and decided to leave the place. She went
to another kingdom and married the boy there.
Then brothers understood
their mistake and made up. They understood that family good relations
are the most important thing in the world.
