The Two Men and the Bear

NARRATOR:
One sunny afternoon, two friends were walking in the forest.
They were laughing, talking, and enjoying the day.

NARRATOR:
Suddenly, they heard a loud noise—CRACK! SNAP!
A big bear was coming out from the trees!

NARRATOR:
Ben got scared.
He ran fast and climbed up a tall tree.

NARRATOR:
But Tom couldn’t climb.
He lay down on the ground and held his breath.

NARRATOR:
The bear came close to Tom.
It sniffed his head… sniff sniff…
His hands… sniff sniff…
Then the bear slowly walked away.

Why?
Because bears don’t eat people who are already “dead.”

NARRATOR:
After the bear was gone, Ben came down from the tree.

🧍‍♂️ BEN (curious):
“What did the bear say to you?”

🧍‍♂️ TOM (serious):
“He told me…
A real friend doesn’t run away when you’re in danger.”

NARRATOR (ending):
And that day, Tom learned something important:
A true friend stays by your side—no matter what.
