The chick

Date: 8/8/2022

I bought a pant but haven't worn it yet. It's been days I guess, hanging from the hook since then. Sometimes it makes a noise but I ignore it thinking the sound is coming from elsewhere. But on this day I decide to wear it and as I unhook it, that noise returns and continues. I am now convinced it's coming from within. I keep it on the bed, the bed in Beleghata and ask Ma to investigate with me. The small chick comes out of it, flutters, takes flight and hangs in the air like a humming bird, hovering over the bed. I wonder how it could survive all these days without food or water. It makes a dropping on the bed. I tell Ma we have to look after the chick
