Chance

Chance was a cheerful gentleman with a bowler hat, rectangular glasses, and a bright red tie. One sunny morning, he stood in his empty white-paint world and held up a tiny yellow speck for everyone to see.

At first, Chance thought the little yellow thing was a lost treasure. But when he peeked closer, it twitched. “Oh!” he said. “You’re not treasure at all—you’re a baby bird!”

The tiny bird gave a soft peep and looked around nervously. Chance wanted to help, but he did not know where the bird belonged. Then he noticed a trail of tiny yellow feathers leading across the floor like a secret path.

Chance followed the trail with care. It led to a little nest tucked safely behind a tall stack of books. The bird hopped happily into it, and a surprised parent bird fluttered down beside it with a grateful chirp.

Chance smiled and tipped his hat. The bird family was together again, and the little mystery was solved. Chance learned that sometimes the smallest discoveries lead to the biggest kindnesses.
