LAUGHING OUTLAWED, HUMOR SAVES.

Once upon a time, in a far-off kingdom, there was a strange and terrible law. No one was allowed to laugh. It didn't matter if you were young or old, rich or poor, man or woman - if you were caught laughing, you would be put to death.

It was a harsh and joyless place. The streets were silent and somber, and the people walked with their heads down, afraid to even smile. The king who had enforced this law was a bitter and unhappy man, and he ruled his kingdom with an iron fist.

But despite the darkness that surrounded them, there were still those who refused to be beaten down. There were those who longed for laughter and joy, who dreamed of a world where people could smile and laugh without fear.

Among those people were Ebi and her brother Timi. They were traveling entertainers, wandering from town to town, performing their comedy routines for anyone who would listen. They were young and full of life, with bright eyes and quick wit. They knew how to make people laugh, and they loved doing it.

One day, as they traveled through the countryside, they came upon the gates of the kingdom where no one was allowed to laugh. Ebi and Timi were taken aback by the stern-faced guards, but they were determined to enter the kingdom anyway.

They performed their usual routine at the gate, hoping to win over the guards with their humor. But the guards simply scowled and told them to move along.

Undeterred, Ebi and Timi traveled on, determined to find a way into the kingdom. They knew that their skills could bring joy to the people there, and they were determined to do whatever it took to make that happen.

Finally, after days of wandering, they found themselves in the heart of the kingdom. The people there looked at them with suspicion, unsure of what to make of these strange travelers who had dared to enter their land.

But Ebi and Timi were undaunted. They began performing their routines in the streets, drawing crowds with their quick wit and silly antics. At first, the people were hesitant to laugh, afraid of the consequences that might come with it.

But gradually, as they watched Ebi and Timi's performances, they began to loosen up. They giggled and snickered at first, then burst into full-blown laughter as the siblings continued to entertain them.

Word of their performances spread quickly, and soon people from all over the kingdom were coming to see them. Ebi and Timi became beloved figures in the kingdom, bringing joy and laughter to a people who had long been denied it.

As they traveled from town to town, they noticed that the people were changing. They walked with a bit more spring in their step, their eyes shone a bit brighter. They smiled more often, and even laughed aloud when they thought no one was watching.

And slowly but surely, the terrible law that had once held the kingdom in its grip began to crumble. People began to question why they had ever allowed themselves to be silenced, why they had ever given up something as simple and pure as laughter.

And so it was that Ebi and Timi brought laughter back to the kingdom where no one was allowed to laugh. They brought light to the darkness, and joy to a people who had long been denied it.

As for the bitter and unhappy king who had enforced the law, he watched from his palace as his people laughed and played in the streets. And though he was still bitter and unhappy, he could not deny the power of laughter. And so, in his own way, he too was changed by Ebi and Timi's performances.

And the kingdom was never the same again.

TARI A POOR BLIND GIRL

Story Story

Once upon a time, in a small village called Bomundi in Bayelsa Nigeria, there lived a man called Timi. He was a young man in his late twenties, and he had just completed his university education. Timi was known throughout the village as a hardworking and intelligent man, who was determined to make something of himself in life.

One day, Timi met a beautiful young woman called Tari. Tari was the daughter of the village chief, and she was well known for her intelligence and beauty. Timi was immediately smitten with Tari, and they began dating. Over time, Timi and Tari fell deeply in love, and they decided to get married.

However, after a few years of marriage, Tari began to experience problems with her eyesight. At first, it was just a slight blur, but over time, it got worse. Tari went to see the village doctor, who diagnosed her with a rare eye condition that was causing her to gradually lose her sight.

Timi was devastated when he heard the news. He loved Tari more than anything in the world, and he couldn't bear to see her suffer. He promised to do everything he could to help her, and he became her eyes.

 Timi would wake up early every morning and describe the sunrise to Tari. He would tell her about the colors of the sky, and how the birds would sing as they flew overhead. He would describe the flowers in their garden, and how they would sway in the breeze. Tari would listen intently, and she would smile as Timi painted a picture in her mind.

As time went on, Tari's eyesight continued to deteriorate, until she was completely blind. Timi never gave up on her, though. He continued to be her eyes, and he would take her for walks around the village, describing everything they saw along the way.

However, one day, Tari overheard a conversation between two women in the village. They were talking about how Timi would leave her for another woman because she was blind. Tari was devastated. She had always trusted Timi, but now she wasn't sure if he would stay with her.

Tari confronted Timi when he came home from work that evening. She asked him if he would ever leave her for another woman because she was blind. Timi was shocked and hurt by her question. He explained that he loved her more than anything in the world, and that he would never leave her, no matter what.

Tari was relieved to hear Timi's answer, and she knew that he truly loved her. From that day on, she never doubted his love for her again. Timi continued to be her eyes, and they were happy together.

As the years went on, Timi and Tari grew old together. They had children and grandchildren, and they continued to love each other deeply. Tari never regained her eyesight, but she didn't need it. She had Timi, who was her eyes, and he had never let her down.

In the end, Timi passed away peacefully in his sleep, surrounded
