The father got an important call from his friend in the city that their had an important meeting, then the father told “I will not be around for two weeks because I have an important meeting in the city, tell the children”. The Mother replied “OK, I will take care of the children.” The next day the father had travelled to the city and the mother told the children that the father as travelled and sent the three brothers on an errand to get six bags of fruits so that see can mix it with the dinner food while their mother was setting traps to kill wild animals. When coming back the three brothers saw a wolf sleeping behind a tree. The shortest one suggested “Let us leave him alone” and they agree. When going quietly the wolf woke up, saw them and chased them. One spot, the oldest brothers thought and said “He was hungry” and he threw some fruit to the wolf. The wolf saw and ate it but still chased them. The wolf was chasing them the three brothers went different ways away from they home.

“The brothers have not come home for like an hour and there come home under 25 minutes.” The mother said and was worried and said “Where are my boys what is taking so long to get six full bags of fruit”. 15 minute later the mother went to look for her children. Few minutes later after the mother went to look for them, they got home the wolf went back to it stop. Few hours later the wolf came back to house and they saw him and started to run and the wolf chased them around the house. The wolf caught two brothers while the smallest one Ade went to the travelling case and hid. The wolf threw them into cages and locked them inside.

The mother came back home and what she saw “The door was widely open, the furniture was upside down, the wash hand basin was broken apart, Pillow case was torn, their plate was broken down”. She was looking for her children but there were nowhere to be found and she started calling out their names one by one but no one answer when she called out “Ade” he replied “Mum I am in the travelling case”, the mother took it out and bought him out. The mother asked “What happened” then Ade said “The wolf has taking my brothers to his spot.” The mother was angry and took one of the knifes in the kitchen and went than the Ade said “Can I follow you” than the mother taught and said “OK” than Ade followed his mother to the wolf spot.

Their finally got there, the mother saw her children locked in cages. She wanted to look for the key but she heard the wolf bell dings from 2 meters east, saw the keys to the gate and brought out her knife.
