Next morning Lima had a bird in a cage. Father got it for her from a bird shop. It was a parrot. It had green feathers and a red beak. ‘It’s beautiful, I’m so happy. Thank you mother. Thank you father,’ said Lima. She called her ‘Mimi’. Mimi flew from here to there in the house. She liked to be near Lima. Every morning she had a bath. She jumped into the tub. Her wings got wet. Then she hopped onto the bar of the cage. Mother put her food in the cage. But she liked to have it with Lima. She talked to her a lot. Mimi was learning to talk. She called Lima by name. They put her into the cage when they went out. It made her very sad when they did that. She made a lot of noise when they came back. Lima was very fond of her.
