The mother was always worried about the son and one day she became very sick. She told the son, “Listen, I won’t live much longer. When I die, you must bury me in the water.” The mother said this and died. Since the son always did the opposite, the mother thought he would bury her in the mountain if she told him to bury her in the water.
When the mother died, the son realized what he had done wrong. “My mother died because of me,” he thought to himself. No matter how much he regretted it, that would not bring back his mother. The son thought that he should do as his mother said for the last time. And the son buried the mother in the water.
He said, “Mother, I’m sorry. Forgive me.” Just then, it rained. The son was worried that his mother’s grave would float away and he cried. That is why green frogs cry whenever it rains.
