"What's going on? Why are you crying? Do you fell again?" 

"No, just the lion just mocking me!" Lily said.

“What kind of mocking, my sister? "

"Yes, the lion just said I could do nothing"she whined.

"The lion is too much proud of his pride", she added.

"But, did you know? There is sky above the sky", Lily's sister said.

"Now, just take the broken twig, use it to help you learn to fly. I Will throw the twig and try to catch it as quickly as possible", she continued.

"But I can't do it sister", Lily replied.

"You can do it, honey. Just do it, you'll someday fly above the lion", Lily's sister motivated.

"But... soon  there will  a competition, and all the beautiful peacocks Will take a part.

"Come on Lily!" Lily's sister snarled.

"Why do  you even  scold Lily?" (while running to his room still crying)

While in her room, she kept crying.

“Am I really a useless peacock?”

Suddenly, Lily's sister knocked on the door.

"Lily, are you okay?", her mother askes.

Silence, no answer.

"What are you here for my sister? I'm not..",  Lily stopped her words.

"There's no one, am I just dreaming? Ah , no way ..." he said not finished, because his gaze was fixed on the small parcel in the window.

" What's this?" he asked herself as she opened the box.

"A broken twig? Who has just sent it?” She asked curiously.

Then, she brought the broken twig into her room.

"Whose broken twig is this? Why is the shape so unique?, alright, let me put it on the table first.

Lily went out and intended to play with her friends on the field but she saw her friends making any attempts to fly for the coming match.

"I think I don't need to go there, I will definitely get ridicule again" Lily muttered as she walked back to her house and went straight to her room.

(While in Lily's room)

“I really want to take part in that competition but I just can't fly”, she murmured.

Suddenly a light dazzled Lily's eyes, it turned out to be from the broken twig that she had just found in her bedroom window. 

Soon after, Lily approached it.

"Is it true that the light comes from this broken twig?" She asked, in disbelief.

"What!!! (surprised) why is this moving?” , She talked to herself.

"Calm down Lily, I am just the broken twig that would accompany you find your yourself," said the shadow.

"What do you mean?" Lily asked.

"All this time I felt you were a peacock who easily gave up hope, and now I will, I will

stand by you, don't you wish to be able to fly 

and join the race  right ?”, asked the shadow.

"Yeah, but how do you know?", Lily replied.

 "That's my duty. Then you will find out for yourself, just take the broken twig", the shadow suggested.

"What for ?", Lily answered.

"You said that you wish you could fly, come on, let's go to the field!", the shadow commanded.

After a few minutes, they finally arrived at the field.

“Now we have reached the field, then what do you want to do?" asked Lily.

"Now you just take the broken twig, hold it gently".

"But what's all that for?" She asked once curiuosly.

"Just do it..." asked the shadow.

" The twig is already in my hand, what should I do then?", Lily asked.

"Make this broken twig to be the aid in the competition," asked the shadow.

"Sure", Lily replied.

Having finished her first task, she immediately reported to the shadow.

"I have finished the task, is there any other things to do?", Lily asked. 

"Of course!" the shadow answered.

"What? (while wiping the sweat on his forehead).

"What's next to do?” Miko continued asking with a little bit of exhaustion.

"You've hold it, you should also use it," the shadow replied.

"Pardon", I just can't get that point", Lily added.

"Just throw the broken twig up and try to grab it quickly", the shadow explained.

"But I can't fly, I told you so," She replied.
