- Brother 2: (Surprised) Hey! Who's that?
- Brother 3: Hey, that's David~!
- David: (Getting close to them) Brothers~!!! How were you guys?
- Brother 3: Hey, how did you come here?
(Surrounding David, and press him...)
- Brother 1: What's going on at home?
- Brother 2: Did something happen to our father?
- Brother 3: How did you know that we are here?
- David: (Says easily) Hoo~ just let me breath for a second. Easy, easy.
- Brother 1: Tell us what happened, right now.
- David: Dad was so anxious about you, so he sent me with some food and present. Our father is all right.
- Brother 2: Ho~ that's good. I was so surprised boy.
- Brother 3: Ah, our father, how could he send you here?
- Brother 1: (shouting strongly) and who's taking care of the sheep? Did you just come to see the battlefield on the pretext of that order?

(Drumming...)
(Hide quickly...)

(Song of David)...
