A long, long time ago, every plant, animal, fruit, etc. could speak. In that world, the fruit that had the most seeds on the outside were respected since they thought those could spread descendants easily. They were also congratulated since they could talk and have feelings. But the fruit, “strawberry” wasn’t respected that much. That fruit was different from what we think how strawberries look like nowadays. They had no seeds on the outside but had them inside.
So, strawberry wasn’t that popular. A few other fruits said to strawberry like this:
“Hey, you! It’s a shame that you are a fruit. I mean, you don’t have that many seeds on the outside! We are superior, and you are inferior.” Strawberry lived in sadness almost every day.
A few days later, the god who made and took care of the world came down to the planet to see if things were going well. In case something happens, he wore a normal person’s clothing. While going through the streets, he finally went to the place where those fruits lived. Accidently, he tripped on a rock and fell on the trees of apples and pears.
The trees said, “Hey! Who are you? And who dare you touch our precious seeds! You should look around you, person!” Anger was felt in their voices.
But the strawberry was the only one asking if he was okay, and the god was touched by that. After he got home, he decided to let strawberries have a lot of seeds on the outside, and the other fruits the opposite. The next day, all the fruits knew this and were disconsolate. For strawberry who was happier than ever before!
