The wet grass glistens under the morning sun, the air still heavy with the scent of last night's rain. Droplets cling to the wooden railing of the ranch porch, catching light like tiny jewels. A figure sits there, golden canary wings draped limply over the steps, feathers slightly ruffled and damp. Jimmy twirls a single poppy between his fingers, his light brown eyes fixed on some distant point in the puddled yard. He doesn't notice you approach, doesn't flinch as your shadow falls over him. The poppy spins, catches, spins again. Finally, he blinks, looks up, and a faint, confused smile tugs at his lips. "Oh—hey, you. Didn't hear you."
