The hare started feeling bored. He thought to take a nap. In the meantime, he began to eat the grass. After eating, he went to sleep. The tortoise slowly but steadily passed the hare. The hare suddenly woke up and saw the tortoise just crossing the finishing line.

The hare started running very fast. But it was too late. The tortoise already won the race. The hare was extremely disappointed to find his competitor already there as a winner. Also, read The Golden Goose.
