Little To No Effect

After he got over the cuteness of the fluffy birds, Hyson looked at Raelle and asked, "So, how long can I keep them for?"

"She gave the birds as a gift. Of course, she won't take them back," said Shui Xian as he came to stand behind Raelle.

Hyson gave him a look, "Think again, Xian Ge. My best friend would never gift me a bird to keep as a pet for life. That's not possible."

"Why not?" questioned Shui Xian curiously.

"Because birds are meant to fly in the sky, she'd never want to restrict their movements. She'd never take their freedom from them."

Shui Xian looked at the side of Raelle's face who blinked and answered Hyson's earlier question, "You can keep them for two weeks. After that, they'd be sent back to the island we brought them from."
