The moonlight is making the jungle pretty light . You can see the shining river next to us. Every year we try to gather the entire family and go camping for the weekend. We all finished our dinner and sitting down with the grandma to hear stories. There are tents surrounded by us. Everyone is sitting in a circle by the fire pits . Wrapped up in their blankets and jackets. Grandma is sitting on top of a log.
After the story everyone went in to their tent and went to sleep. I don’t know why but I am the only one wide awake while everyone is in deep sleep. I went outside of my tent and looked around me and thinking about going for a walk. But what if I get lost? You know what! I won’t be lost because of moonlight. I can see everything very clearly. And I will be back before morning.
I started walking towards the deep jungle and looking at the beauty. The shining river looks amazing. I wish I could just stay here forever. All of a sudden I hear someone talking. I look behind there is no there, I look towards my right there is no there, I look towards my left still no one is there. I started freaking out now.
“Hey! what are you looking for?” said the anonymous voice.
“ Who are you? and where are you?” I replied
“ I am Owl. and I am in front of you on top of the tree.”

I looked up and see an Owl talking to me. For a second I thought I was dreaming. So I pinched myself to check if i am awake or no. Ouch! yeah I am awake. Wait why is that bird talking to me? How can I understand the bird talking? This is weird. How is this possible?
“ why are you talking like a human?” I asked.
“well it’s night time and all the animals can talk after midnight”
“How is that normal I asked?”
“you never heard any animals talking before? you silly little boy”
“no haven’t”
“ Anyway what are you doing here?”
“ Well I am here with my family for the weekend and we are camping out here. Everyone is sleeping and I couldn’t fall asleep so I decided to go for a walk. So I am here now.”
“ Oh ok. why don’t you go back to where you were before you get lost. Because it will be harder for you to get back to your camp when you get lost here.”
“yeah I was thinking about it.”

I started walking towards where we were camping and the owl is following me to make sure I get to my camp side safely. All of a sudden I realized I am lost and I don’t know which way to go. The owl told me to stay here while she looks out where we were camping. I am getting really nervous. Asking myself if I should have trusted the owl. Couple minutes later the owl came back and asked me to follow her.
“so how do you feel when you can talk?” the owl asked me.
“well it’s normal to me because I can talk all the time you know.”
“Yeah youre right. Sometimes I wish I could talk all the time like human. So I can tell people how i feel.”
“ Hey! it’s ok maybe you could come to the city with us and I will keep you as my pet so we can talk every night.”
“ But I like the freedom here. I like flying around and being with my friends.”
“Oh ok! Than I won’t take your happiness away. You belong here. ”
“Thank you.”
“Well we are here. I guess it’s time to say good bye.”
