Cold And Inhuman

A Raven bird flew across sky, finding a place to rest. It aimed for a building and landed on the roof.

A young woman came out holding a basket. She hummed a song and went over to feed the animals in the cage.

"Hey dear, have you missed me?" She laughed "oh I'm sure you have" she spoke to the animals.

She noticed a hen struggling to move with a broken leg "oh no poor you." She spoke, her eyes were filled with pity.

"You know I can't do anything right?" She whispered as she checked the animal's leg. It was broken bad, probably when it was dragging for food. She thought she gave them abundantly.

She stood "I guess it's a goodbye then" she took the animal with her and locked the rest in the cage.

The woman went back inside and head to a room with a burning fire at the corner.

She placed a pot on top of the fire. "Don't worry Mr hen. I'll make sure to remove your feathers gently" she rubbed the back of the hen.

After preparing everything, she carried them with her to drop it on the table.

A man not as young as the woman walked in elegantly, he was handsome even though he was older.

The woman smiled when she got a glimpse of him.

"Honey You're back" she cheered.

"Honey how are you doing?" The man query as he stepped inside the dining room.

The woman envelope him in a tight hug.

"You should freshen up first dear" the woman suggested.

"Sure I will do that, but just a minute, wait before I go or don't you miss me?" The man acted pitiful to which the woman laughed to.

"Of course I do, but dinner is going to get cold if you don't go any moment from now." She informed.

"Okay fine, since you don't miss your husband enough to at least spend a moment with him." He pulled back and walked away.

She smiled sheepishly. She sat around the dining table. Her mind became overwhelmed with the thought of a child as she looked at the three set of chairs.

She needed to give her husband a child, he was getting old day by day and needed a successor.
