The day started peacefully in the forest troop. Jessie was quietly sitting near the tree roots, enjoying her small piece of fruit. Suddenly, Dolly appeared, her eyes full of jealousy and anger. Without warning, she lunged at Jessie, pulling her fur and biting harshly. Jessie screamed in pain and tried to escape, but Dolly’s rage was uncontrollable. The forest echoed with heartbreaking cries — it was a terrible scene of fear and helplessness.
Acheb, who had been watching nearby, could not bear it any longer. He jumped down from the tree and ran as fast as he could to rescue Jessie. His face showed courage and determination. With a loud warning call, he pushed Dolly away, spreading his arms to protect Jessie behind him. Dolly tried to fight again, but Acheb’s brave stance made her step back slowly, still furious but now defeated.
Jessie was trembling, her small body shaking from pain and shock. Acheb gently touched her shoulder as if saying, “You’re safe now.” Tears rolled down Jessie’s eyes — a mix of fear and relief. The fight had left deep scratches on her back, but her heart was comforted by Acheb’s kindness.
As the sun began to set, Acheb stayed beside Jessie, grooming her softly and guarding her from any harm. That moment showed true friendship — when one heart steps in to protect another, even in the face of danger. Jessie will never forget the day Acheb saved her life from Dolly’s cruel fight.
