The sun shone brightly through the big classroom windows, making the polished floor sparkle. It was break time, and the sounds of noble children chatting filled the air. Liana, always responsible, was getting tea and biscuits ready for her young master at the refreshment corner in the back of the room. The fancy school made sure to provide nice snacks for every student and their helpers.
At the back of the class, Javier leaned lazily on his desk, talking to Buddy. The big bird had somehow pushed its head through the open window, getting very close to Javier's desk.
"Buddy, you can't just stick your head in here," Javier said, half-scolding but also amused. "Do you know how much trouble I'll get in if someone complains again?"
Buddy squawked softly and tilted its head, trying to look innocent.
"Oh, don't give me that look," Javier said, scratching behind Buddy's beak. "You just want snacks, don't you?"
