🍿 SNACK TIME: BIRD EDITION
Ray’s mom brought snacks.
“Kids, I prepared popcorn—”
Cherry landed on the bowl.
Not next to it.
Not near it.
On top of it.
She stuck her whole face inside the bowl and started eating
popcorn like a vacuum cleaner.
Ray: “CHERRY PLEASE STOP
EMBARRASSING ME.”
Cherry turned around.
Spat a kernel at Ray.
Lucy: “Did… did your bird just spit at you?”
Amy: “Is she… bullying him?”
Ethan: “This bird is my hero.”
Cherry puffed up in pride.
She knew exactly what she was doing.
📺 MOVIE TIME (ATTEMPTED)
They tried watching a movie.
Amy picked a comedy.
Lucy dimmed the lights.
Ethan finally relaxed.
And then—
FWUMP
Cherry landed directly on top of the TV.
Then she dangled upside-down from the frame like a tiny
acrobat.
Lucy: “…she’s gonna fall.”
Ray: “No she does that—”
Cherry dropped, did a midair flip, and landed on Ethan’s
head.
Ethan: “WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME?!?!”
Cherry screamed in victory like she had conquered a kingdom.
🎮 GAME TIME (THE REAL
BATTLE)
“Let’s play hide-and-seek,” Ray suggested.
“IN YOUR HOUSE?” Ethan shrieked.
“WITH A BIRD THAT HUNTS HUMANS?”
But Amy was excited.
“Let’s do it!!”
They split up.
Cherry watched them quietly.
Suspiciously.
Predator-mode.
✦ Ethan’s hiding spot:
Behind the curtains.
Cherry found him in 4 seconds.
✦ Lucy’s hiding spot:
Inside Ray’s closet.
Cherry scratched the door until Lucy screamed.
✦ Amy’s hiding spot:
Behind the sofa.
Cherry sat on the backrest and stared down at her like a hawk.
✦ Ray’s hiding spot:
…his own bed.
Cherry walked in, glared at him, and started gently pecking
his forehead like a broken woodpecker.
Ray: “WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS?!”
Cherry: “Skwee.”
(translation: “because I can.”)
