This story is inspired by true events.
We were excited at the sight of the talking parrot,sitting on it's perch making 'kaw, kaw' noises. When asked the parrot would repeat some mundane word or try to imitate it at least. It had engaged us for approximately one hour and now it was time to go home. Mother had called for us to have our supper.
Running home we were all eager to tell her about this beautiful parrot at my friends house. Even though I had seen it a day before today I wanted my brother and two sisters to see it as they had not believed me yesterday, especially since i went on and on about how it had said my name, it hadn't ofcourse but I was never going to admit that to my siblings.
"Can we have one? Please" we pleaded with mum whilst eating our pasta. All of us making so much noise chattering away about the parrot named 'Pauli', that finally when our mum told us to 'shut up' we were not surprised. We finished our supper, only every now and then whispering exaggerated details of the day, then ran upstairs to tell our dad.
Dad was upstairs in his bedroom watching his favourite comedy 'some mother's do ave em' and as you can imagine was not impressed by our noise but before he could say anything mother walked in and to our surprise asked our dad if he can afford a parrot, as they were quite expensive for the average working man.
"Ok,ok, yes! I will get one just let me watch tv" dad cried out. We all left his room just incase he got angry.
Two days later dad comes home with this black bag which seemed to have something moving inside it.
"It's here! It's here! we have a parrot, dads bought the parrot" all the children came running into the front room following dad. Mum came in also but within a minute we all, including dad, came running out and slammed the door shut.
Seeing as Gossip Girl did not realise, all is forgiven but yes, dad had bought home a pigeon he caught from the street and it was wild. It pood everywhere and we had to get someone to come and catch it. Mum was not impressed.
(p.s please try to refrain from adding your own endings to the stories).
