known as a helpful child who liked to help others. He never stayed silent seeing the
old in trouble

in vain because the water continued to chase him. He started to sink by the water
that was getting wider and deeper. Then place where it happened turned into a very
large lake. The North Sumatran named the lake, Lake Toba.

followed his mother's orders. He ran fast and reached the hill in short time. The
mother came out of the house. From a distance he saw that his son had reached the
hill. He also ran towards the river. Not so long ago she arrived at the river bank and
soon the weather changed, black clouds covered the place. Thunder stroke and it
rained heavily. Toba's wife threw herself into the river, immediately she turned into
a big fish and at once the water overflowed everywhere.
