Simote Najib and the Enchanted Butterfly

Once upon a time, there lived a curious boy named Simote Najib. He had big, brown eyes that sparkled with a thirst for adventure and a heart as kind as the morning sun.

One sunny afternoon, as Simote was exploring the enchanted garden behind his house, something caught his eye. Fluttering among the vibrant flowers was a magnificent butterfly, its wings painted with every color of the rainbow. Its gossamer wings seemed to shimmer and dance in the gentle breeze.

Simote's heart skipped a beat as he gazed at the ethereal creature. He had never seen anything so beautiful. With the utmost care, he reached out a trembling hand towards the butterfly, as if he feared it might vanish at the slightest touch.

To Simote's astonishment, the butterfly didn't fly away. Instead, it gently landed on his finger, its delicate wings fluttering softly. Simote couldn't believe his luck. He had befriended the most enchanting butterfly in the whole world!

For days, Simote and his new companion, whom he named Rainbow, explored the garden together. They flew among the towering sunflowers, chased each other through the fragrant rose bushes, and watched the lazy bumblebees buzz from flower to flower.

But one fateful day, a group of mischievous neighborhood children came to play in the garden. They ran and jumped and shouted, their laughter echoing through the air. Rainbow, startled by the noise, flew away in fright.

Simote's heart sank. He couldn't lose his butterfly friend! He searched high and low for Rainbow, desperately calling her name. But she was nowhere to be found.

As Simote sat on a bench, feeling heartbroken, he noticed a tiny shimmer in the grass. He leaned closer and gasped. It was Rainbow, lying injured on the ground, one of her wings torn.

Tears welled up in Simote's eyes. He carefully picked up the butterfly and carried her back to his room. With the help of his mother, he bandaged Rainbow's wing and gave her some sweet nectar.

As the sun began to set, Rainbow's wing healed and she was ready to fly again. Simote opened the window and watched as she soared into the sky, her wings mended and her spirit restored.

From that day forward, Simote Najib knew that even the smallest of creatures can bring joy and wonder into our lives. And though he never saw Rainbow again, he always cherished the memory of their friendship.
