– Also, nobody hears me, – Fish interrupted him. – For some I’m too small, for some I`m too big!

– But you said you had friends. Doesn’t it mean that for someone you are still normal? – said the spot with an unsuccessful attempt to calm Fish down.

– I had. But I’m sure they will not notice my absence. However, I take no offense at them because of it. In this urban hustle it’s very hard to remember everything and everyone, – answered Fish but in her eyes, there was still some offense.

– Tell me about the city? I’ve never been there, – the spot trying to change the sad topic.

– I do not advise it to you. There is nothing to see there – it is cramped and stuffy. A lot of negative and sadness. I’m always tired there, that atmosphere burns all your energy and drinks your soul, – Fish made a pause and adds quietly.

– And even though there are so many different animals there, it’s still so lonely there.

It became quiet. Fish went deep into her memories, she really wanted to say something good about the city, but she couldn’t find anything in her memory. The spot was thinking too…

– But where is it not lonely? I’m here too completely alone, – said the spot sadly.

– I thought that there, in the crowd, there is real life.

– Yes, for some. Foxes, wolves, and squirrels came recently to the city. They feel really good there. If you are one of them, you will feel comfortable in the city too, – lively said Fish, happy as she finally said something nice about the city.

The mood of the spot quickly changed – Oh, foxes, wolves, squirrels…, – in his voice excitement grew.

– Probably also kangaroo, deer…?

– Yes, how did you know? – Fish was surprised.

– I know them. They lived here for a long time. It was not good for them here, – the voice was still worried.

– I think they also went to search for a new life. And found it in the city.

– They look very capable. It’s so strange they felt wrong somewhere else, – again Fish was surprised.

– Or wrong with them, or they are wrong, – said the spot with a sigh.

The silence fell again.
