and listened to music. He often lent records to his friends. Sometimes they kept them. He lost many records in
this way.

His Mother become a widow because Malin Kundang's father had passed away when he was a baby.
Well,.. students do you know the meaning of passed away?. ... Any body know? The synonim of passed
away is died. Therefore, Malin Kundang had to live hard with his mother.

OK, Let me continue my story...
Malin Kundang was a healthy, dilligent, and strong boy. He usually went to sea to catch fish. After
getting fish he would bring it to his mother, or sold the caught fish in the town.
One day, when Malin Kundang was sailing, he saw a merchant ship which was being raided by a

pirates. The merchant was so happy and thanked to him. In return the merchant asked Malin Kundang
to sail with him. To get a better life, Malin Kundang agreed. He left his mother alone.

Well, every body.... Do you still enjoy my story? What happened next?

Many years later, Malin Kundang became wealthy. He was very rich. He had a huge ship and was

helped by many ship crews loading trading goods. Anybody knows the mening of huge ? Yes, right.

Very big. Perfectly he had a beautiful wife too. When he was sailing his trading journey, his ship

landed on a beach near a small village. The villagers recognized him. The news ran fast in the town;
“Malin Kundang has become rich and now he is here”.

Then everybody, ....
An old woman ran to the beach to meet the new rich merchant. She was Malin Kundang’s mother. She

wanted to hug him, released her sadness of being lonely after so long time.

But what happened,

Unfortunately, when the mother came, Malin Kundang who was in front of his well dressed wife and
his ship crews denied meeting that old lonely woman. For three times his mother begged Malin
Kundang and for three times he yelled at her. At last Malin Kundang said to her "Enough, old woman!
I have never had a mother like you, a dirty and ugly woman!" After that he ordered his crews to set sail.
He would leave the old mother again but in that time she was full of both sadness and angriness.

Ok, Students, guess... would his mother be angry at him?
Finally, enraged, she cursed Malin Kundang that he would turn into a stone if he didn't apologize.
Malin Kundang just laughed and really set sail.
In the quiet sea, suddenly a thunderstorm came. His huge ship was wrecked and it was too late for
Malin Kundang to apologize. He was thrown by the wave out of his ship. He fell on a small island. It
was really too late for him to avoid his curse. Suddenly, he turned into a stone.

Well students, this is the end of the story. Do you enjoy the story? I want to give some questions.
