Mitty slept peacefully in the comfortable basket. It was full of her boys' socks and clothes.

It was in a small room right next to the eating area. The sound of footsteps awoke her. Swiftly, she jumped out of the basket and hurried into the other room. The tall boy and the gentle boy dashed into the room, sat down at the table and began eating. Mitty began playing with their shoe strings. But they ate quickly and dashed outside. Mitty followed them. The tall boy called out to her "Gotta go to school girl. We'll see ya later." Sadly she watched them disappear inside a huge orange bus. Mitty didn't understand and she didn't want to wait until later. "Hello, my friend." Mitty heard a small voice and looked up to see Rita the robin flying overhead. "Hi, Rita," Mitty called to her. "Do you want to play today?"
