~Believe It Or Not?~

The story begins here;

Once upon a time,there live a young boy called DenZ who love to have pets such as dog, cat, rabbit, hamster, bird and last but not least fish. He loves all the pets he has but because of the age at that time, he failed to be a good pet keeper. He was too young to know and learn the proper way of taking care of his pets. He just love to have pets without having any experiences (poor those pets, all died under his care! However, when the boy was 13 or 14 year old (somewhere there) he had a WONDERFUL GIFT- a small bird which was given to him by his aunt. He has never raise a bird as pet before and for sure when you asked him what type of bird was that, he will give you a BIG slap on your face! He insisted taking care and tried his best to raise the bird until the bird finally grew up to be a beautiful little creature.

Of all the nice names in the world, he chose to name it NiawNiaw as he cant think of any other suitable name. NiawNiaw was an obedient bird. He always flew back home when DenZ let him out. Every evening you will found DenZ gardening at his mini garden and at this time, you will saw him and NiawNiaw together (he flew back every evening to the place where DenZ was gardening). Sometimes, NiawNiaw did not fly home but he flew home the next day. DenZ will then took him in and put him back into the cage. This was how DenZ went on with his daily life.
The story continues;


One morning, as usual DenZ woke up and went out to search for his beloved pet because his pet did not fly back home the previous night. He was kinda worried because last night it was raining heavily. In addition, NiawNiaw has not taken his food before flying off. After searching everywhere in the garden, he finally found his pet sitting quietly on the swing and shivering there. So,the next time when the bird was nowhere to be found, DenZ will just sat on the swing and wait for his pet to fly home.

DenZ never feel sad when something happened to his pet, but this time, he`s so sad when something happened to his pet bird. DenZ woke up early in the morning because that morning he`s going to Ipoh with his family members for shopping. He woke up so early just because he wanted to search for NiawNiaw which did not come home again last night. He saw him at the ground but he did not bring him in to be put into the cage (SO STUPID!) He knew he`s not going to be at home, but he refused to bring NiawNiaw in and put him in the cage. He left his home and started the journey to Ipoh.
He came home in the evening and saw something brownish on the floor. He went nearer and to his surprise, it was his pet, NiawNiaw, laying helplessly on the ground with most of his feathers tore off! DenZ quickly brought him in and gave him foods and lots of water,but that did not help at all.
Suddenly, NiawNiaw gave his last breath ( I mean it!) and tears rolling down his eyes (I mean it as well!)."IT WAS REALLY A SAD SAD MOMENT"!!! For the first time, DenZ learnt how to bury his pet. He visited the so - called "graveyard" of his beloved pet every one month with flowers from his garden.
~This is how the story ends~

THE QUESTION IS DO YOU BELIEVE A BIRD CAN ACTUALLY CRY WHEN HE`S GOING TO LEAVE HIS OWNER?!

EVERYTIME WHEN I THINK OF HIM, tears come rolling down like the drops of rain falling down from the dark and cloudy sky!

~F.Y.I~ The lovely bird is called Zebra Doves.

Things happen for a reason. I believe something within you was awakened from that incident.
