00:00In a quiet village surrounded by green fields and whispering trees, there lived a poor boy
00:06named Covey. He lived with his grandmother in a small mud house at the edge of the village.
00:11They didn't have much, just a few clay pots, a cracked wooden bench,
00:16and a tiny garden where they grew some vegetables. But what they lacked in wealth,
00:21they made up for in love. One day, as Covey was walking back from the river with a pail of water,
00:28he heard a soft clucking sound coming from a nearby bush. Curious, he peeked inside and found a small,
00:35brightened hen tangled in some thorns. Her feathers were ruffled and she looked hungry.
00:42Don't worry, Covey whispered, gently freeing her. He carried her home, fed her rice scraps, and named
00:49her Chinme. From that day on, Chinme became part of their little family. She followed Covey everywhere
00:56into the fields, to the river, even to the village school. Every morning, Chinme laid a single egg.
01:04Covey would boil it and share it with his grandmother, saving a bit for Chinme too. Word of the loyal hen
01:10spread through the village. Some laughed, some were amazed, and others grew jealous.
01:17One day, a wealthy merchant came to Covey's hut. I'll give you ten silver coins for the hen, he said.
01:2320 even. But Covey shook his head. She's not for sale. She's my friend. The merchant scoffed and left,
01:32but trouble followed. That night, Chinme went missing. Covey searched the fields, the riverside,
01:39and even the merchant's estate. But she was nowhere to be found. Heartbroken, he sat under a tree and cried.
01:48Days passed. Then, one early morning, just before sunrise, Covey heard a familiar cluck at the door.
01:56It was Chinme. She looked tired and dirty, but her eyes still sparkled. Covey hugged her tightly, tears in
02:04his eyes. You came back. From that day on, Covey built a little coop for her beside their home.
02:10Chinme never left again. And then something strange happened. She started laying two eggs
02:18every morning, then three. Covey would sell the extra eggs at the market, and soon, he earned
02:23enough to buy new clothes for his grandmother, fix their leaky roof, and even help other children in
02:29the village. The boy who once had nothing now had more than enough, not because of wealth,
02:35but because of kindness, loyalty, and a little hen named Chinme who had once been saved,
02:41and who had never forgotten.
02:59To me because of the grandmame just came back to the Era's Earth. It cannot be Е resident,
03:09I also have her … now unless you know anything, there's one of friends that were
03:13one of our friends in Egypt and elsewhere, you know what's going on in love with?
03:17So that's I tell you there's three things I can't make back to her.
