उसकाे परिकल्पनामा उ अब शिकारीबाट समातिन आँटेको छ, आमाले उसलार्इ झस्काँउछीन र उसले आफूलाई शिकारीले समात्न आँटेको बताँउछ । आमाले नडाराउभन्दै यदि तिमीलाई स्यालले समात्न आँट्यो भनेँ म शिकारी नजिकै गएर आफूलाई समात्न दिन्छु र उसले मलाई डोरी लगाएर बाँध्न थाल्छ तव तिमी र तिम्रा बाबुले भाग्ने समय पाँउछौ अनि भाग्नु भन्छिन्, बालकले आफ्नी आमालाई शिकारीले समातेर लगेको परिकल्पना गर्दछ, यो भयानक परिकल्पनाले उसकाे आँशु झर्दछ, अनि आमालाई च्याप्प समातेर सुत्दछ ।
