But how was his mother?

She was getting old and sad. She always came to a shore every morning waiting for His son while singing ( sing a song ) people around her took pity when looking at Malin’ s mother. When there was a ship came  she always came through and asked about her son. ” Hi, Do you see Malin? My handsome son? Where,s Malin? “

The captain off the ship answered, ” No mom, there s no one name Malin, sorry.”

Malin’s mother was upset and went to her house. It happened again and again.

Well, happy audience we back to Malin, How was he ? Years passed

Malin became a rich merchant and had a beautiful wife but he forgot his promise to his mother.

One morning, Malin’s wife asked him to go vacation. So Malin prepared his big luxurious ship and everything to sail.

However , in the middle of his voyage a big storm blocaded their ship, therefore the ship had to board in the closest island. You know audience it was the island where Malin was born.

Many people came to see a big luxurious ship including malin’s mother. They saw Malin in that ship, they cried” Malin comes, Malin comes.”  Malin’s mother heard that. She shocked and wept happily. She rans to meet Malin. She cried, ” Is that you Malin? Is that you my beloved son? Yhanks God you go home Malin.I’m your mother,  do you remember me?” Malin ‘s wife shocked and said, ” Son? She says that you’re her Son, is that true Malin?”

Malin became ashamed to admit his mother. He answered arrogantly ” Mother, oh..no..no.. My dear I don’t know this poor old woman.” Then Malin cried to his mother ” Hi, you poor woman get out of my ship!” Audience, Malin’s mother begged sadly, ” Malin my Son,  don’t you remember your promise? Why are you so cruel? I’am your mother?” Malin answered loudly  ” No, you’re not my mother,  my mother was death.” The old woman was really hurt, she got out of the ship while crying and kneeled on the ground ” Oh my God, you know what happen to me, please, Do what do you want to do.”

Audience do you know what happen the next?

Well, I’ll continue my story.

Suddenly the wind blew hard, the sky was getting dark and the storm destroyed Malin’s ship. Malin’s cried loudly ” Mother..mother..please help me, forgive me please, mother.” But it was too late, she cursed into a stone.
