A songbird, she lived in a cage. Yes, a golden cage padded in velvet, clear water and exquisite foods, all her desire satisfied. All but one... the freedom to choose. Wonderful short story :)

Wow, the story is so well written and the emotional beats so on point! I enjoyed the read, thanks for sharing 😃 and fascinating to notice that the theme is the same of your book. It’s a compelling one too!
