Mr. Wahid is my grandfather who is also my best friend. My grandfather is sixty four years old and he is retired now, so he has plenty of time to play with me. I love him very much and I know he really loves me too. We spend a lot of time together.

My grandfather is a very tall and strong man. My grandfather is smart, patient and caring. When I am sad, he can always make me laugh with his funny faces. He puts me on his shoulders and tells me many stories.

Everyday my grandfather drives me to school and picks me up at the end of classes. He also does sports and many other activities with me. He takes me to the swimming pool. He plays chess with me. During starry nights, we count the stars together in our backyard. I love my grandpa.

Once upon a time, there was a kingdom in Java that was attacked by another kingdom. The king asked his Queen to save her life. Alas! In the middle of the jungle, the enemy killed all her guards. However, the Queen was lucky because she changed herself into a golden snail and survived.

One day, an old woman saw the snail and took it home. She looked after it. Whenever the old woman was not at home, the snail turned into a human being. She cooked and did the household chores. When the old woman got home, the Queen quickly changed into a snail again. It happened several times and made the old woman curious.

One day, the old woman peeped and saw what was going on. She broke in, immediately. She asked, “Why did you change yourself into a snail?”. The Queen told her what happened. The old woman was surprised to know that the snail was a Queen.

Later, from the head of the village they discovered that the king had won the battle and he was looking for his wife. Then the village head sent a message to the king telling him that his wife was safe.

Several days later, the King and his guards came for the queen. They thanked the villagers for their kindness and brought the old woman to their palace.
