I'm a little thief.
With a curious mind.
When I see something.
I can't help it.
That I want to claim it.

It's been few days Rhea saw her neighbor taking care of doves' eggs. She was curious, wondering if she could take care of them too.
Seeing the owner out of sight.
She went to the dove's cage and found the four eggs. They all looked smaller than quail's eggs.
She grabbed one.
Then, dashed off.
Rhea looks at her tiny palms with a small egg against it. She was delighted to have it.
It was so tiny. She wondered.
She caressed it gently, and looked at it with curiosity while a part of her was afraid that she might end up breaking it.
The sky was about to go dark.
Having a small mind, she never knew what she had done to the egg. Her mind only consumed one thought: Hide the egg.
She did.
Although it was the dumbest thing she had ever done.
-
The sky is awake.
It was morning. She excitedly went outside to check her egg. It wasn't her egg. She claimed it but not hers.
Rhea tried to locate it, the place where once last put it.
Then, she found it.
It breaks her little heart.
There, lying on the grass, frozen.
Someone or something had smashed it.
There's only one word that haunted her mind.
She was stupid.
So stupid.
She killed a life inside the egg.
