I've always wanted to fly like a black Raven, squawking through the sky or a pretty Robin, singing during Christmas.
Then I realised that I could but there was one thing stopping me.. the height. My parents always said that I would fly one day, that I was really special!

I had to do this for her, the person I loved most.
"Ready, darling?"
"Mhm!" I called out.
I bent down a little, preparing myself for take-off.
"Now."
Another bird jumped off with me. I saw it, somehow, even with the wind blowing against my face. A little scowl formed across my face.
Why didn't I have feathers..?
