Juan bought a kilogram of crabs. He put them carefully in his basket. Then, he started to walk back home.
One day, his mother told him to buy crabs in the market. Juan got the basket and went on his way.
In the market, he saw some big fat crabs. Mother will be very glad, said Juan. These crabs will taste good with coconut milk.
A long time ago, there lived a husband and a wife with no child. Day and night, they prayed to God for one.
Finally, their prayers were granted. The woman gave birth to a baby boy. He was a very lazy boy. Because of this, the people called him Juan Tamad.
Juan happily played with his friends. After a while, he felt hungry. It mus be lunch time, he said. I can't wait to eat the crabs.
Finally, he thought of a way to do it. Talking to the crabs in the basket, he said You must go home immediately. Mother is waiting for you. See this road?Just go straight until reach the gumamela bush. Enter the front door and head for the kitchen. You will surely see Mother there. After saying this, Juan tipped the basket and set the crabs free.
On the way, he met his friends. Come, Juan! Join us. We are playing tumbang preso, Berto, his neighbor said.
Juan wanted to play with them, but he must bring the crabs home. His mother had to cook them for lunch.
Why, Mother, aren't they here yet? I told them to go home by themselves. They must have gotten lost, Juan answered.
Juan, where have you been? Did I not send you to buy some crabs? I have nothing to cook for lunch, his mother's angry voice greeted him.
Because of your foolishness, you will only have rice and salt for lunch.
Oh, Juan, what a foolish boy you are! Don't you know that crabs cannot go homr by themselves?' his mother exclaimed.
