Greedy Monkey

Deep in a jungle, there is a giant tree. That giant tree only bears fruits once in 10 years. The fruits look like apples, with magic power, which only known to the monkeys in the jungle.

According to the monkey's old story, if they eat the fruit with half green and half red, the fruits can make them fly! But if they eat the full green or full red, the poison fo fruits can kill them. Moreoever, for each season, there are only 3 half green half red fruits in a few hundreds of full green or full red fruits.

The time has come that the tree starts to bear fruits again. All the monkeys wait patiently, as they know that if they don't wait for them to ripe fully, they might choose the poisonous fruits.

There is one young monkey waits eagerly for the magic fruits. Finally, after long time of waiting, in the middle of the night, while everyone is still sleepy, the young monkey manages to find 2 of the half green half red fruits!

After eating one of them, the young monkey flies like a bird. He is so happy with the fruit.

"What if I eat two? I'll become super monkey!"

Then, the greedy young monkey eats the second one. After eating it, he feels that his whole body is very very light and he begins to float upward. The monkey tries to fly down, but he can't control it. His body keeps floating, and in the end the young monkey ends up in the moon.

The young monkey is trapped in the moon forever. The 2 magic fruits give him immortality life, but he is really really lonely.
