Explanation:
Honestly, I don't think Daisy will end up with Tom or Gatsby. Each of them has a flaw that just cannot be ignored enough in a relationship. Tom is too controlling, which is hardly even a relationship at all, and Gatsby, despite his sweetness to her opposite of Tom, wants to do something even more impossible: relive the past, as if the past is a swimming pool to jump harmlessly right back in. What Gatsby is deluding is too good to be true and Tom's personality is too poor to be true, which is why that infatuation will not last very long either.
So basically what happened is that the lion - the king of the jungle and a big creature - was annoyed by the little mouse and was about to kill it. However, he saved its life because he thought the mouse was funny and thought that the little critter can't possibly help him in any way in the future. It turns out that he was proven wrong by the mouse when it saved his life when was caught in the trap.
The theme of the story - as seen in the fable - is about not judging immediately. The littlest things in life will unexpectedly have a great impact in the future.
