- · It was a very lovely text, and show the sadness of the narrator., that's the sad thing i actually wanted to post.
- · The words used were nice,i like how you used Bird as the metaphor, though it was quite manlike.
- · The tone used show the feeling, which is really great.
- · But, some work need to be done to improve the grammar, it was just a few errors you've made.
- · The used of dialog, cool, just the format of the dialog was wrong. i.e: "Wait, where're you going?" asked him. "I'm leaving you." The Parrot answered him back. Bird Talking

The girl and the man
“I never want to see
you again!” and she started taking off her six inches heels and threw it to a
male in checked shirt who was standing at the entrance of Pavilion shopping
complex.
He moved slightly
aside, dodging the thrown heels and caught the heel with his muscular arms.
Then he said with
the kindest voice as he walked straight to the girl, “Oh honey, what I’ve done?
What’s wrong with you? You don’t like the heels I gave you, do you? Babe, they
are Italian, genuine leather.”
He gave the heels back to the girl but she didn’t take it.
“I don’t care if
this is Italy or Gombak! I will not care anymore! Who the hell is she? Why is
she wearing the same heels as mine?”
“Oh, that girl. Why
would you envy her, she just wore the same heels as yours, that does not make
her better than you my dear.”
“I don’t care, she
can walk with you! But she should not wear the same heels! You said mine, or
this piece of trash was priced thousands euro, hand made, specially made for
me, only one had been made! You are a terrible liar!” she spoke with her hand
taking off another heels.
The man then stunned
in silence, and then whispered to the girls stopping her from going to beat him “Those
are China, these are Italy.”
“Whatever.” She
pushed him and walked away, with the heels on the man’s chest.
MOONEYE
There was a boy,MIZAN who was so simple he even went to any occasions wearing just jeans and loose tee with dark coloured flip-flop. He was like five foot nine, everyone said he should go playing basketball or volleyball rather than just sat on the chair moving and rubbing the knights and the queen on the white and black checked board. He always been the first to get in classes and left none of his box in the attendance list unmarked. He was an A student, and no one had ever called him Aleck. Some said, he never knew any alphabets except the letter A, and he never knew that people can write or doodled “x” marks on examination papers or assignments or quizzes. He was fair, but recently he is getting darker. He got really nice eyes, the Caucasians eyes, his nasal bone was obvious, but less obvious then Rowan Atkinson, his forehead was very clean, very alike to Johnny Deep’s forehead, his jaw was very nice, just like the Ferrari F430 bumper and his cheek, even not so chubby, the dimples were very obvious.
Every
evening, whether it was at Cherating or Gambang, he walked, to appreciate
nature around him, and to sip every tiny bit of fresh air into his crippling
lungs to enable him pumping more precious bloods with more treasurable oxygen.
But no one knew that he had TB, Congenital heart disease and asthma. That’s why
he keep leaving perfect footprints on the sandy beach, though they were a bit
over pronated, it still perfect on the sand, and perfect on the runway.
He's from Cherating, lives just near the shore, where
the sky was so bright at night in November he could see Orion Belt. He used to lay on the beach, or maybe at the
balcony when the weather is under the weather.
The balcony was nicely arranged with tulips and lilies, with a lazy chair
facing the shore. There, when the sun just about to be going into the ocean, or
into the earth, the wind could automatically help him turning the page he read
to another. The people on that village,
`Kampung Sepakat Jaya’ have a very light hand, though some of them very
muscular and vastly fitted tees they wore.
None of them ever keep their hand down to others, either to outsiders or
insiders.
Generations to generations, everything is going well
in `Kampung Sepakat Jaya’, although many pillars with ropes were now there, although
people talked through boxes and some plywood-like things, and even many of them
got the things people used to share their thought, their info, status, to find
old-missing friends, and to post picture or moving picture, there still having
occasions with teenagers bringing food in salver, which not made from silver,
and some still throwing a stone to the air, grab one on the floor and catch one
in the air before it falls, and the kite still flying high and the tops
spinning like it will never going to stop.
Mizan, he never missed those things, he played those things and he knew
every single thing very well.
But then, the moon started to …………….(to be continue)
