《Gallinus》14- A short walk
Advertisement
Today I woke up with the sunlight on my face.
It seems that I fell asleep while watching the stars and ended up falling on the bed.
I wonder what time it is… This is the first time I wake up late in this world.
Actually, it’s not really too late, but I always wake up with the sunrise, so it was weird to wake up and see it all in the sky.
I get up from the bed and look around.
It seems Suzy has already woken up, I wonder if she’s fine.
I leave the room and head towards the kitchen, where I find a sitting body, which did not seem to react to anything.
Well, it’s a good thing that she managed to get out of bed and come here.
While I think about it, I also notice the quiet environment. Suzy’s mother was the one who worked the most in this house, so now that we’re without her, the environment has become strange.
For now, I think I should look for something to eat.
I climb on one of the chairs around the table, before jumping on it. At the top, I realize there are no signs of any food.
Suzy hasn’t eaten anything, yet?
Since Suzy was in no condition to do anything, I jump from the table to the kitchen cupboard, where the food is.
… I feel like I’m jumping a little higher than normal… Am I growing up?
I didn’t give it much importance until now, but I’m certainly bigger.
I think I should be about 20 cm now?
With that height, opening the drawers became much easier.
Let’s see… I think toast should do.
Since I am not good at cooking, I decide to just take some slices of bread, throw them in the pan and burn them.

If only it had some butter or oil… Or that frying pan was nonstick…
Anyway, after suffering a while trying to turn those slices of bread stuck to the frying pan, I finish burning them and place them on a plate.
I became very skilled with these claws and my beak…
With the end of the torture, I can finally taste a toasted bread, although not very good, serves its purpose.
I also leave some on a plate for Suzy, in case she wants them later.
Now that I’m fed, what should I do?
I look out of a window in the kitchen and see the garden.
For now, I’m going out for a bit.
I walk out of the house and go to some flowers in the yard. They were planted by Suzy’s mother and are blooming.
Since I don’t have much to do, I try to bring a glass of water and water it. To hold the glass, I had to hold it with one of my feet, so I had to jump up to the flowers with it.
My wings could grow faster… Just jumping on one foot is really tiring.
While I’m watering, a presence appears behind me.
- Hmm… Galizé, what are you doing? – Suzy asks me, doubtfully.
Are you already better? I thought you would be depressed all day…
Looking at her, I notice she is tired and her colors keep changing, but the one is more present is a shade of dark green and purple.
She is mentally unstable... I think it will be good for her to help me with the garden.
Since I can’t talk to her, I just decide to keep watering.
After a few seconds of seeing me, Suzy finally understands what I’m doing and takes another glass to help me.

It wasn’t long before we finished watering all the flowers.
- … What are we going to do now? – She asked while looking at me.
Are you really asking me that?! I’m just an animal, you know?
Observing Suzy’s condition and trying to think of something to do, only one thing came to mind.
We should go and eat different things!
Anyway, food is always a good way to cheer up a person.
So, I go outside and Suzy, who understands the meaning, quickly takes me in her hands.
- Hey, before we leave, I need to change and lock the house! So wait a minute.
It seems she remembers things well, even though she has no motivation…
[...]
After a few minutes, we are finally walking around the village, but as we walked, a question came to my mind.
… Where is the money that we have coming from?
Since I started living with Suzy, I haven’t seen her or her mother go to work.
For that reason, I begin to doubt where the money comes from.
Well, it doesn’t look like they get much, but it’s still weird.
This doubt remains in my mind for the next 5 seconds before we arrive at a food court.
Even though I didn’t say anything, Suzy came naturally to this place… It seems she also understand the power of good food.
That way, we spent the whole day walking.
[…]
As soon as dusk arrives, we return home.
Looking at Suzy, I see a little bit of the usual yellow color appearing.
As we walked, some of her acquaintances came to talk and helped to cheer her up, talking about the tower.
I didn’t pay much attention to the conversation, because… There are a lot of strange people in this city.
As we strolled, I saw people in swimsuits, eskimo suits, looking like a samurai…
What has happened to this village these past few days? I don’t remember having so many weird people around here!
The most plausible explanation is the tower that will be opened for the last time, according to what I heard.
Probably a lot of people from outside should be coming to participate.
I really want to know why everyone wants to climb this tower…
Now, the only way for me to know the reason, is to get to the top of it.
I hope it’s not too difficult… And I don’t meet very strange people.
It is a pity that no wish of mine has been fulfilled until today…
