Two Birds

Two Bird Friends And A Hard Decision

The red bird and swan in the beautiful lake were friends.  Every day, when the red bird gets time, it will go to the swan for a chit-chat. Both the birds enjoyed their company. One fine afternoon, as usual, the red bird came to see the swan. The swan was swimming in the lake. “Hey, dude, what’s up?” the swan asked the red bird, who landed on the tree branch.

“I’m fine. I am here to tell you that I am going to another place. From tomorrow onwards, you will not see me,” the bird said.

“Why are you leaving such a beautiful place like this? What are you missing here? Look at the beautiful landscape. There are plenty of trees on which you can make your home.” said the swan.

“I understand your concern, but I am going to a place where I will get a lot of food grains to eat. You know, it’s harvesting time, and the paddy fields are calling us for a feast. I should not miss it, every year I enjoy the feast. But don’t worry, I’ll be back after the harvesting is over,” said the bird.

“Ok, as you wish, but I will miss you. Anyway, wish you all the best,” said the swan.

“I’ll miss you too! I’ll definitely come back to see you,” said the red bird, and he flew away. The swan continued to swim in the lake.
