A New Beginning

On the last Thursday, which was on the 1st of April, my mum fetched me to the shop as usual. I spent my time sleeping in the morning. During afternoon, I finally woke up. I helped my parents in the shop by taking heavily weighted stuffs, 25kg of Corn Starch Powder, 50kg of Pure Vacuumed Salt, 25kg of MSG and so on.. In the evening, things were starting to get easier. I was needed just to clean up the shop. I heard my dad mentioned something about he had bought 2 nests for the birds which live in the bamboo trees beside my house. When I saw the two nests, I was happy that those birds would never have to bare the rough wind blowing through the bamboo trees.

The 2 bird nests

Suddenly, I heard some kind of chirping sound came out from one of the nests. After I checked them, I found out there was a young and newly-born little bird inside the nest. It was shivering and hungry as it kept opened its beak.

The fragile bird

Without hesitation, my dad quickly took some cereal and soaked the cereal in to the water until it became muddy. After that, he fed the bird but did not know real way of feeding it. Thanks to Azam from my dorm, I taught dad of the way of feeding a baby-bird. After that, we decided to rare the young poor bird. We feed it everyday and every time it chirps by showing that it is hungry.

We hope that this young poor bird will finally raise its own wings and fly away some other days when it has grew older. But we also have one unanswerable question - when will it die as it is still fragile now. My parents and I feed it everyday like one of our family members, hoping that the question will not be answered so early. We pray that this fragile baby-bird can fight for its life in the future easily with our initial help on the beginning.
