One day, they suggested to live together due to the distances issues and old age. They shared responsibilities in an alternating manner since there was no one to assist them in their daily house work. After some time, one of them became severely ill, while the other was well. That evening, the sick one slept earlier leaving the other awake. The healthy one left the door open and awoke the ill one to close the door just because it was not her turn to close. They quarrelled about it and chose to just sleep with the door open. Later in the night a lion entered their grass thatched house and pulled out the sick one whose sleeping position was next to the door. As she wailed, the healthy one kept encouraging the lion to eat her because she neglected her duty of closing the door. She however still left the door open just because it was not her turn to close it, this lion after tearing the ill one into pieces, came for this healthy one who was also eaten.
