"Yes. Quit often i suppose. I can't help but envy them." Xaho looked up again at the birds and watched them disappear behind some trees. He stared at maria's bird and longed to set it free, but he knew he couldn't. He felt so sorry that the creature has to spend its life caged up. He looked into the bird's eyes and felt its hidden sorrow and knew how it longed to fly in the clouds with other birds. Xaho sighed and said none of what he was feeling to maria.
