“Buah mangga? Dari mana datangnya?” tanyanya heran. Ia segera membangunkan kakaknya dan menceritakan apa yang terjadi. Sementara itu, suara “Keke… kow… keke.. kow” terus terdengar. Kedua gadis itu masih terus mencari asal suara tersebut, tapi tak berhasil.
Kejadian itu terus berulang. Setiap kali mereka ke hutan, mereka akan dijatuhi berbagai jenis buah-buahan. Dan suara misterius itu akan terus membahana.
Akhirnya si Sulung berteriak. “Siapakah kamu? Ayo tunjukkan dirimu, aku ingin berterima kasih.”
“Keke… kow… keke… kow…” tiba-tiba muncullah seekor burung di hadapan mereka. Rupanya burung itulah yang selama ini memberikan buah- buahan kepada kedua gadis itu.
“Hai gadis miskin, tak usah berterima kasih padaku. Anggaplah itu hadiah karena kalian berdua bekerja sangat rajin dan tak pernah mengeluh,” kata burung itu.
Kedua gadis itu lalu menamainya burung kekekow. Sejak hari itu, burung kekekow memenuhi kebutuhan makanan mereka, bahkan kadang- kadang memberikan kain yang indah.

“Aku ingin peralatan makan dari perak,” kata warga yang lain.
Suasana menjadi gaduh, masing-masing warga mengajukan permintaan mereka.
Namun, apa yang terjadi? Burung kekekow diam saja. Ia tak memberikan apa pun pada warga tersebut. Ia hanya berteriak “Keke… kow… keke… kow”.
Warga mulai naik pitam. Mereka menganggap burung kekekow sengaja mengejek mereka. Dengan persetujuan kepala desa, mereka pun menyembelih burung itu dan membuang bangkainya begitu saja.
Si Sulung dan si Bungsu menangis. Mereka tak menyangka warga begitu tega. Keluarga itu mengubur bangkai tersebut di halaman rumah mereka. Mereka menanam bunga yang indah di atasnya, sebagai penghormatan pada burung yang pernah menolong mereka.
Ajaib, bunga-bunga itu tak bertambah besar. Di atas makam burung kekekow itu justru tumbuh sebatang pohon besar yang menghasilkan buah sepanjang tahun. Anehnya, buah yang dihasilkan selalu berganti-ganti. Karena jumlahnya banyak, si Sulung don si Bungsu menjual
sebagian buah itu ke pasar. Dari situ mereka bisa hidup dengan Iayak. Burung kekekow terus menolong mereka meskipun dia sudah mati.
