Juha and the Parrot
Juha, a humorous and wise man, buys a charming parrot to entertain himself. However, he soon discovers that his precious belongings are mysteriously disappearing. Juha must solve the mystery and uncover the truth behind the thefts, all while teaching his parrot an important lesson about honesty.
Juha lived in an old, creaky house filled with laughter and joy. One day, he decided to buy a parrot to keep him company and teach it to talk. Juha named the parrot Kaleidoscope, for its vibrant colors. However, shortly after bringing Kaleidoscope home, Juha noticed that his belongings were disappearing. He realized he faced a mystery that needed solving.
Juha was determined to find out who was taking his things. He started by asking Kaleidoscope if it had seen anything. - Have you seen anyone come inside, Kaleidoscope? Juha asked, hoping for a clue. But the parrot merely squawked and repeated, - Anyone come inside. Juha realized the parrot might not be much help, at least not yet.
Juha set up a small trap by leaving his favorite book on the table, hoping to catch the culprit. He hid behind a curtain in the corner of the room to watch. Hours passed, but nothing happened. Juha started feeling discouraged. - Maybe I'm just being paranoid, he thought aloud.
Juha decided to speak to his neighbors to see if they had noticed anything suspicious. - Have you seen anyone unusual around my house? Juha asked his neighbor, Mr. Ahmed. - No, Juha. Everything seems normal to me, Mr. Ahmed replied. Juha felt more confused than ever, as if the whole world was playing tricks on him.
Feeling defeated, Juha considered giving up on solving the mystery. He sat in his favorite chair, staring at the empty space where his belongings used to be. - Maybe I should just let it go, he sighed to Kaleidoscope. The parrot squawked in response, as if echoing Juha's sense of hopelessness.
Just when Juha was about to give up, he had an idea. - What if I pretend to leave and watch what happens? Juha wondered aloud. He decided to test his theory the next day. Juha left the door ajar, pretending to leave for the market. He hid nearby, ready to catch the culprit in the act.
To Juha's surprise, he saw his neighbor sneak into the house. As the neighbor started taking things, Kaleidoscope chirped, - Welcome! Come on in, the house is yours! Juha burst out laughing and confronted the neighbor. - Caught you! Juha exclaimed, sending the neighbor away empty-handed.
Juha taught Kaleidoscope a new phrase to prevent future thefts: - Beware, Juha will be back soon! From that day on, his belongings remained safe. Juha chuckled at the thought of his wise parrot protecting his home. Juha and Kaleidoscope lived happily, having learned the importance of honesty.
