In ancient times, there were traces of this area that loved a girl from Bawean. This girl is the daughter of a great man, who is very respected in Bawean. While the trajectory is his daily work as a fisherman. When the trek goes to Bawean to sell the fish, then that opportunity is to meet the girl.

Eventually their relationship is known to the girl's father. His father was very angry, eventually the girl was forbidden to buy fish on the beach. So did his father had threatened, would kill the fisherman, if he visited Bawean again.

Their relationship resulted in pregnancy. The girl's father was so embarrassed and angry, so unexpectedly heard the words from the father's mouth, "the son of lawlessness, you no longer deserve to be my son, then you better be a frog". Instantly the beautiful girl turned into a toad.

Hearing the news, the trait became very sad. So since then he has always been alone on the beach. And he decided to stay on the beach until the end of his life.

Moments after he stayed on the beach, he was approached by a frog. And when the full moon appeared, the frog turned into a girl he had known before. So nervously he asked, "are you my beloved"? the girl smiled sweetly and said, "yes I am your lover". I'm here, looking for you because I miss you! And soon I will give birth to your son, that's why I can get here, because I want to give birth next to you.

Now comes the time, with courage and affection, it helps to facilitate birth. But after seeing what the lover had born, how disappointed he was, well .. his beloved has given birth to a frog.

"What's going on?"
"Nothing, calm down!"

Sadly he took the frog baby to the beach to be cleansed, and after that covered the frog baby with his holster.

"How is our son mas?"
"Our children are healthy, calm down and rest first, I'll clean you up".

The man persuaded his lover not to see the baby. Even so, he insisted on seeing the baby.

Like an evil spirit, the man spoke out loud to his lover, "you do not have to see your baby!" "You have given birth to a demon child!"

When the man's hand was about to strangle his beloved's neck, suddenly the frog child in the holster came out, then bit his father's neck. In pain, he let go of his strangulation and along with the incident came a strong wind, intermittent lightning struck, accompanied by heavy rain.

In pain, the man tried to move unsteady, his hand still wanting to strangle his lover. With fear and tears pouring, she ran away and hid behind the rocks.

When the man was about to hunt for his lover, suddenly his body was pulled by a strong beam. The light came from the two frog eyes that bite it earlier. The light was so strong that he could not move anymore, he fainted.

And before fainting, he still had time to listen to the frog's words, "Dad, I really love daddy!"

"Because the father wanted to kill the mother, then I had to take this light out".

"Remember the father, that ray comes from the power of evil spirits, who will turn my father into a frog!"

Suddenly his body shrinks, be as big as a newborn baby.

The woman had been watching the incident that happened to her lover. He was very sad with the incident.

Shortly afterwards, the diminished man's body changed into a frog. In his form which has become the toad of the man said to his beloved, "My beloved, forgive me, because all this is the result of my deeds, then before I die, I will tell you that you have given birth to a frog, and that was our son!"

"Sit near here, soon I will die, guard my tomb!" Soon the frog died. But both are shocked by the change in dead frog skin, it turns hard like a stone. It gets louder so the two can not lift it anymore. In confusion the two were startled by a voice that turned out to be the sound of dead frogs, "O my beloved and my son, when you die, it will be like me!"

The day before morning, when the sun rises the woman's body instantly turned into a frog. "my son, now I have to go to the village to meet my parents' tomb!"

Arriving at his parents' tomb, suddenly the frog heard his father's voice, "my son, before your father died, I have found a talisman, which can change you and your son to become human!"

"It is in your room, after you take it from its place, it only works for 15 days, inside it has 2 seeds, red and green, the red for you and the green ones give to your son!" Remember, do not you open the thing before meeting your son, because it will be destroyed by itself after half a day! "

After picking up the object, he immediately heads to the beach to wait for the boat that will take him to his son's place. Day after day had passed, but the long-awaited boat did not come.

The appointed moment arrived, spinning the object soared above the trees, along with it came a thunderbolt followed by the roar of the wind, and the frog was bouncing away right at the edge of the sea. The frog is not moving anymore. This is where the end of life the frog woman before can meet his son.

Far away there came the cries of the heart-wrenching child, waiting for his mother to arrive. The toad is so faithful waiting and cleaning his father's tomb. day after day, month after month, year after year, his mother is not news. Skinny nian body. If she knew where her mother was, she would have followed her.

Now his body could not move, only his mouth was open and his eyes staring out into the ocean, in which he was shocked by the arrival of his mother who invited him to leave the mortal world. Then the frog's hand grabs his mother's hand, and together leaves the mortal world.
