Such a cute bird

He was mesmerized listening to the ocean´s bites. Even didn´t notice the moment when all his worries disappeared relaxing his muscles. Blank mind, the waves bathing his feet, the winter sun over his face and... inappropriate call ready to break his happiness.

-Hello darling. I hope you haven´t forgotten to pick up Mark at seven; he is in karate. And Julia finishes her French class at eight. Buy some bread. Ah, tomorrow is your sister´s birthday, think about her gift. I´m coming into my yoga class. See you later! I love you.

Without time to answer, Andrew hung up the call and, resigned, put his hand into the right trouser pocket. He was surprised and searched carefully in the jacket. Looked over the beach. He stirred the sand with his foot and checked again the coat. Andrew couldn´t understand that.

He came back to the car concentrate on the way he did before. Was unlucky. Was pretty sure about closing the car and keep the keys. Definitely, they weren´t there.

Andrew returned nervously to the beach. And so he made out: the keys were being guarded by an enormous seagull, in particular, the biggest in the hole area. He walked toward it slowly. Didn´t want to scare it.

He was just a few metres far when observed its beak going down till the key. And flew away. He observed it getting away like an idiot.

The mobile started ringing again in his pocket.

-I forgot to mention that you also need to pick up Luke, Mark´s friend. I promised his mother we would take him home. Bye!

The man ran through the beach as the soul that the devil carries. It was becoming dark. He didn´t want to check the watch, was concentrate on the seagull gliding over the water five metres far from the seashore. Andrew clenches his fists forgetting his new suit. It was time to take a bath.
