As part of the English Language and Literature course in IB1, my class and I read the book 'I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings', by Maya Angelou. For the written task that we did afterwards, I chose to add a chapter to the book. The chapter that I added was after the last chapter in the book, which was chapter 36. As Maya Angelou's book did not have specific titles for each chapter, I left my work with the title 'Chapter 37'. In order to to maintain a connection between my writing and that of Maya Angelou's, I tried my best to follow her writing style. This means the language that I have used, my diction as well as the paragraph and sentence structures, are based on how they are in the book. For those who have already read the book, this might be an interesting addition. For those who haven't, consider this a spoiler :p Please do read and let me know what you think! :)

His Little Bird
Saving Leah Series Book 7 "So what do you admire most about women?" I ask the man as he sips on his coffee. He smirks as he sets his cup down, acting as if my question was some sort of joke, "Her complete submission, of course." I hum, disproving greatly of this answer as well as all the others before. "Birdie is not the type of submissive to give complete submission easily. What is your plan with that?" I ask him. He just laughs, "Every submissive can be broken in, it is only a test of a dominant's will," he says with a smirk. I smile tightly and slide his application into my folder, having all the answers I need. "So when do I get to meet her?" He asks, suddenly standing as he sees me gathering my things. I smile for real now, taking great pleasure in this part of the project. "Birdie is a flame in need of stoking, not extinguishing. I appreciate your time, but I have a lot of other candidates-" "There is nothing wrong with me holding my submissive up to high standards. I'm an incredibly experienced dominant and-" "This has nothing to do with your experience level. Like I said before-" I try to explain again before he once again cuts me off. He raises his voice going on about himself. I doubt he really cared for Birdie all that much. He's never met her. This is an ego thing. "You have a nice day," I tell him with a sigh, turning and checking my watch as I leave the coffee shop. Appointment four down, six more to go. ---- Birdie, the wild, sassy, and fiery child of Ellie and Charlie is now of age to have her own dominant.
