I pick up the bedding and fly up to my tree i land on top of the nest i made and lay down the bedding.I lie down in the new and improved bed i made "Jeez this smells nice!" I mumble to myself".I fly back down to the front of my cage and gobble up my pancakes quiker than a humming bird.I end up getting syrup in my hair,No suprise there due to i eat like an Animal.I fly over to the stream in my cage and crawl in letting my hair and wings get wet.

I walk out of the cool and refreshing water and shake like a dog to get the water off my wings hair and body and then wrap myself in my wings.I run over to the tree where i have my bedding , I pull a white cover that is on the top of my bed and rip two holes in it for my wings and wrap it around me like a toga.By now my wings are dry so I flap them twice for reassurince then jump.

As i am hovering at the top of my cage i see the handsome Man outside my Cage and i fly down to meet him and thank him for his kindness. As i land he steps back,Could he be scared? No i would not think so! "its fine i wont harm you" I kneel down right  in front of himand spread my wings out. He stares at them in every detail and every specticle 'May I' he whispers , I lift my wings further towards him and he gently grazes his hand against my wing. "Thankyou" I whisper as his big blue eyes look over the feathers. He turns his head so his eyes meet mine and he bows and speaks the words "Your welcome mylady" I thought that word was only said t royalty plus the fact it is the 21st Century!. I bow my head toward him and speak "How come you are so kind to me" the words break out before i can stop them.I cover My mouth and say "i am very sorry about that i wasnt thinki..." He stops me before i can speak and he says "No..No its fine you were kind enought to let me come close to you, I guess it is because such a beautiful creature as you doesnt deserve to be locked up in a cage you deserve more!"  The words break my heart and i look into his eyes and i cant stop the tears.he puts his hand in between the bars to touch mine but just as i start to reach out the aggrivated gaze of Mich reaches into my vision "im so sorry i have to go!" and i fly back to the top of the tree and lie down and see the mans dissapointed gaze.
