Our friends noticed. They notice everything. Lately, they gave up the torment and knowing glances. Until today, their antics started up again. I didn't mind; they were just having fun. You didn't mind. Heck, you didn't even notice me. I don't mind, though.

Birdie, two days. Where were you? Would you tell me if I asked? You told one of our friends. I remember you had dragged them to the side in the morning. You talked slow yet sharp. I wanted to listen in. Trust me, every aspect of my body told me to, but I would never invade your space. Never, Birdie.
