"Hey! My boy, Dewa Kala. You can eat plants and animal, but don't too much."
"Could I eat the human, Dad?"
"Yes, you can. But only those who break the rules. They go out at sunrise, sunset, and also when the sun directly overhead."
Dewa Kala was happy to hear that. He throught that's very easy to do. But his father doubtful. He call his wife, Dewi Uma, "Lets take a walk to the earth. We enjoy the scenery while testing Dewa Kala."
Then Dewa Siwa and Dewi Uma disguised become human being as husband and wife. They rode an ox, named Nandini. When the sun overhead, Dewa Siwa and Dewi Uma took shelter under a tree. Suddenly they heard voice.
"Hey Human! I am Dewa Kala, son of Dewa Siwa. You break the rules. You go out when the sun overhead. So I will eat you know!"
"I am so sorry, Dewa Kala. We are willing to be your meal. But i have a riddle for you before you want eat me."
"Ha...ha..ha... When I was a child, i always answer my dad riddle. I will definitely answer your soon."
Dewa Siwa gave him a riddle, "The head is three, the hand is six, and the eyes is seven. What is that?"
Dewa kala throught it is very easy. But when he start counting, he realize it was wrong. So he is very confused. He was angry and want to eat that's human. They then turn to be Dewa Siwa and Dewi Uma soon.
His father said, "Hey! Dewa Kala you are wrong. The sun is already leaning west. So you can't eat the human."
Dewa Kala angry to endure hunger. And than he kicked the coconut tree in the next to him for blocking the sunlighy. Since then the coconut tree has not grown perfectly straight.
