Description:Translation (Rita Seng Mai) I will tell a story called "The one who is afraid of frog". This story is about a frog which transformed into human in the daytime and turned into a frog at night in the past. Let me tell about that. There was a girl who was in love with a frog which could transform into a boy. In the daytime, she couldn't meet her love which was a frog. But it turned into a handsome boy at night. They only met at night. They were always together. They were falling in love for many years. For many months and years, they were together and they were still in love. One day, the girl gave a (Kachin) turban to the frog boy. She gave it to him. He said to the girl, "I will not take this one now! You keep it." But the girl told, "No, you take it. Let go to a festival tomorrow night. Tomorrow, there will be a festival that will be held by my neighbours. Let's go there!" She gave the turban to the boy by saying like that. In the past, we called that "Sa Ba turban" or "Japan turban". It was made of nylon. Turbans were made of nylon in the past. Then, he took that turban. He took it and then, the next day, that frog tied that turban on its waist and was dancing happily in the puddle during the daytime. But the girl saw that and thought to herself, "Ahhhh, that is the turban that I gave to him. But here, frog is using this". Then she beat the frog and took the turban back. Then, when they met at night, the boy told her, "My love, you made me feel embarrassed today. You took my turban off". Then the girl got to know that the boy was just a frog which transformed into a boy. Since then, the girl didn't love that boy anymore. She ran away from the boy. But the boy transformed into a frog and followed her all the time. Today, the one who is afraid of frog is the one whose lover was a frog in the past life. They might have the lovers, frogs, which can transform into human. Our elders said like that. This is the end of the story.
