Those Years I Opened A Zoo Novels & Stories

But this time, it was different. Going on vacations, time can be fast if you don't look at the clock. It's already nighttime. I'm in my room staring at my computer, looking at all the pictures I've taken earlier today. Once Birdie came back with a load of food for the whole weekend. She cooked breakfast, and we decided to enjoy a family outing at Big Bear Alpine Zoo. It's been a long time since I've gone to the zoo. The last time I have been to was in San Diego, which was in the fourth grade. So, it has been confirmed time.

I’m not one of those girls that has kept a little black book. I do have a pink holographic book with a flamingo on it. I got it during a wildlife excursion in year 11, buying it was the highlight of the trip for me. It may make me sound like a loser, but after five hours of observing animals and birds, I’m unapologetic. At least they had a shop. I went home with a tea cup, pencil case, and my little pink book. I was happy.

JILLIAN Forgetting about the weird thing he just said, we both landed in the park unconsciously. My money is just good for street foods so I bought them for both of us. He didn’t complain about it and just tried the food. He didn’t ask a lot of stuffs to and just follow where I go. We also went to the zoo. “Why does animals has to be like this?” he asked and I just shrugged. I took him out fast since he doesn’t look happy about those animals on different cages.

the girl cooed at their babies before they entered the zoo. “It’s changed a lot since the 30’s,” Allen said as he pushed Cahya along. “We were vacationing in the Scottish highlands when this place opened in 1936, we all portalled down here and brought the kids here on the day it opened,” he said, smiling as he remembered the looks of wonder on the David and Olivia’s faces when they saw the animals. “We had tea and cakes, like nice refined human. The maid that served us almost had a heart attack when she saw Olivia’s eyes. David kept dropping his magic to scare her every time she came to our table, Olivia thought it was hilarious, Rose not so much” he said with a chuckle.

“Zoey, how long have I been asleep?” Zoey sniffled and said, “Almost seven years.” Janet seemed deep in thought for a long moment before saying, “It must have been difficult for you all these years.” Back then, she had been blind enough to let a vicious animal past her defenses, bringing harm to her entire family, herself, and her poor daughter.

“I do hope you two will enjoy this. This is not much but you can also request another place where you want to go, Miss Winter.” “Let us see about that.” Liam will surely enjoy this one. He loved animals. I looked around as we entered the zoo. The security guard smiled as he nodded seeing Hawk enter. Based on my memory, the two became close when Hawk saved one of the children who fell in the orangutan den. The San Diego Zoo was one of the most popular destinations for animal lovers. It was an open space, closely mimicking the wildlife and not only that, it housed almost two thousand specimens. Liam was already here when he was still a baby, together with Hawk.

All day, I hustled for cash and apologized, trailing Snowy and cleaning up whatever he wrecked. At twenty-three, fresh out of college, I'd been all ambition. I was gonna be somebody. Two years later? Bottom of the food chain. I felt like apologizing to the sewer rats. Still, the four of us stuck together. Survived every crappy day side by side. And now the apocalypse was coming. Zombies. Strong. Fast. Everywhere. One snap of their jaws and you were done. Sure, my cats could take down chickens, ducks, mice, rabbits. Feed them wolves, whatever. Didn't matter. They couldn't shield me from zombies.

Carmen rushed over to wipe it away. Sasha only knew me as an animal trainer. She had no idea I actually worked in finance. Over the years, the companies I built from my investments had cleared nine figures. The zoo was just a gift for her. Every time I tried to come clean about my work, she told me to get lost, saying I carried an animal smell that never washed off. We'd run out of things to say since she brought Hugh to the zoo six months ago. To win her over, I tried my best to coach him, despite his recklessness and stupidity.

I find it weird because I've only been with him for like two weeks and I'm already this attached to him. Anyway, I can't wait to get back to my life, although Vince made our stay in Italy splendid and memorable. He took his time taking me to places like, the museum that held a lot of ancient things, historical towers and ancient palace. And then we went to the zoo on my plead, Vince was totally against it stating that there are wild animals there and I might get hurt. But I've always wanted to go to a zoo, he later agreed on the condition that I will stay by his beside throughout our visit to zoo. There are many animals I've longed to see such as; Cheetahs, Hippos, Kangaroos, Panda and many

"See? The first exhibition is monkeys." "Oh, great. They sell mirrors here for you to look at yourself." I gave him a look. "I will rip your intestines out and strangle you with them." Safe to say, I enjoyed my day at the zoo with him. We didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but it was a fun day. We went to see almost all the animals in the zoo. I've also learned a few things about Cayden.
