CHAPTER TEN

THE END

The next day, I finished my work on the plane. I could fly home now. In the afternoon, I walked back to the well. The little prince was on top of an old wall near the well and I could hear his voice.

"Yes," he said, "it's the right day, but this is not the right place."

Another voice answered, but I could not hear the words. Then the little prince said, "Come to the right place tonight and wait for me. But please don't hurt me very much. Now, go away."

Then I saw something on the sand near the wall and I was frightened.

It was a yellow snake.

"Why did you talk to that snake?" I asked the little prince. But he did not answer…

CHAPTER NINE

THE WELL

Eight days after my plane crashed in the desert, I became very worried. I could not fly my plane and there was no more water. It was very hot and now I was very thirsty.

The little prince started to tell me more about his journey. "The fox ... ," he said.

"My friend," I said, "please don't tell me more."

"Why not?" asked the little prince.

"Because I'm very thirsty," I said. "I'm going to die because I don't have any water…"
