Fable about Love: Two Little Pigs
There were two little pigs deeply in love. The sow was chubby, while the boar was strong and healthy. Every day, they nestled together. The boar adored the sow, and his eyes and heart were filled with love for her—his feelings were beyond words. Whenever there was delicious food, the boar would step aside and let the sow eat to her heart’s content until her belly was full and she waddled away.
Only then would the boar lick the leftovers from her bowl. While the sow slept soundly, the boar stood guard by her side, afraid that even a blink of his eyes would make him lose sight of her. The sow slept peacefully and soundly, with her snores gentle and unique, knowing that her beloved boar was by her side. This genuine love made her never worry about the boar leaving her.
As time passed, the sow grew fatter, and the boar became thinner. The sow walked with a graceful sway in her hips, looking very charming and seductive. The boar loved her even more, his heart filled with joy. One day, the boar overheard the owner and the butcher discussing plans to slaughter the plump sow and sell her. At that moment, the boar was heartbroken; the thought of losing his beloved felt like a knife twisting in his heart.
From that day on, the boar’s behavior changed drastically. He was no longer as gentle and caring, no longer as dutiful, no longer as tolerant and accommodating. Whenever the owner brought food, the boar would push the sow away, blocking her far from the trough, and he would eat greedily, completely ignoring the sow’s painful, longing gaze. The boar even set rules for the sow, saying that from now on, he would stand guard. If he caught her slacking off, he would ignore her completely. After eating and drinking his fill, the boar would sleep soundly. Only when a pig eats and sleeps well can it grow fat.
Gradually, the sow, who was once so happy and content, became distressed and heartbroken. She was tormented by the change in their love, by the increasingly unfamiliar boar. She even began to doubt whether this was the same boar who once cared for her, loved her, protected her, and cherished her. The sow grew more and more disappointed and saddened, finding solace only in the memories of their past happiness.
Meanwhile, the boar seemed completely oblivious to the sow’s suffering, continuing to eat and sleep with carefree abandon. The sow fell into despair, questioning all those promises of forever love, of staying together through thick and thin, of lifelong companionship. In the end, everything seemed to fade away like smoke.
More than a month passed. The owner brought the butcher back to the pigpen, and they were surprised to find that the once shiny, plump sow had become emaciated, while the boar had grown even stronger and fatter. The owner smiled, and the butcher laughed.
At that moment, the boar started running around the pen, oinking loudly to get their attention. He wanted to show them that he was a healthy pig. He was afraid they might take another look at the sow. Finally, the owner and the butcher tied up the boar, and as they dragged him out of the pen, the boar smiled at the sow and said, “Don’t eat so much in the future!” Although the sow was deeply hurt by the boar’s recent behavior, seeing him being taken away to be slaughtered broke her heart. She couldn’t bear to let go of him. She charged forward, trying to push them away and save the boar, but it was too late. The gate of the pen was securely closed.
Through the bars, the sow could clearly see tears in the boar’s eyes. At that moment, and only at that moment, the sow finally felt the long-lost, familiar love from the boar. That night, the owner celebrated with a big feast, happy to have sold the boar for a good price. Meanwhile, the sow lay in the spot where the boar used to sleep, heartbroken, trying to feel his warmth and scent. Suddenly, she noticed two lines of writing on the wall: “If love cannot be expressed with words, I am willing to prove it with my life!”
At that moment, the sow understood. She finally understood the boar’s series of changes and strange behavior. It turned out that everything he had done was to save her. The sow was devastated, and even the swallows shed tears. Such love could move heaven and earth and make the spirits weep.
I am so envious of those two pigs who loved each other so deeply. I envy their love. I also want to be loved deeply. I would rather that love last forever, than for the person who loves me to sacrifice their life. If it were inevitable, I would rather take their place. True love is in the heart, in every detail, and true love is hard to come by. If you find it, you are fortunate—treasure it!
