A Quiet Strength - Trial and Tribulation
by Anon Allsop

-Part Three-

-Twelve-

There was an earthy smell of Spring in the air, snow was melting and Aponi had noticed two birds of the like she had never seen before. There was a bird that she seemed enamored by, bright blue with a dusty orange upon its chest. Another was a bright yellow and had black feathers in its wings, a smattering of white downey feathers covering it's neck. Both birds were occupying upper and lower branches of the same tree, but each seemingly ignored the other.

“The Third Human”

I was told of it one day while going out, lamenting a grade I had gotten in a class earlier. I wanted to put it off, blame it on something else. While I know certain things were a factor I could've tried to modify things though I think the task would overwhelm me. Back to the subject at hand, while I lamented my grades, this man came up to me while I was eating.

So, for the last few weeks I could have been writing, but wasn't. No idea why, just couldn't drag myself in front of the computer. Funny thing is, writing this one is easy, I could write this zany mess all day.

But I didn't. (shrugs)
