Grandfather stopped the boy from talking when he wanted to mention that it was a snake that had bitten him.

The old man asked the boy to stand up and move around.

The boy's pain stopped before he received any treatment.

Grandmother arrived with some happy people.

The snake crawled away and disappeared behind some bushes.

The old man confirmed that the bite was from a bee, not a snake.

The protagonist caught a bee and it stung him on his finger.

Grandmother thought that the protagonist had been bitten by a snake.

The old grey haired man knew the cure for bee stings.

The protagonist's grandfather ran to a small house quite some distance away from their home for help.

The snake was caught and removed from the compound by the protagonist's grandfather.
