The story of the swan, the ostrich and the ugly duckling

I'm gonna tell you the story of a love triangle relationship between 3 birds:the swan(f),the ostrich(m) and the ugly duckling(f)

Epilogue:
This happens in a New York zoo.Before the ugly duckling met the ostrich,the swan had a happy relationship with the ostrich for many years.in each other eyes, perhaps they were perfect for each other. and even a perfect match labelled by many living around their community.Although they were not from the same species, but both of them were good looking. and somehow the differences maybe vast, nevertheless, both of them were darlings to each other.

First and Last chapter:
One cloudy day(dine day is outdated already),a shipment has arrived and a few ducks were brought in.and amongst these few ducks, there was an ugly duckling.and they lived in the swamp area,slightly less developed part of the zoo.The ostrich was out on his usual walks in the zoo when he passed by this pond.She looked ugly and pathetic.compared to the beauty of the swan,she was far worse.don't know was it out of sympathy for the duckling or because the ostrich was looking for another companion/liaison,the ostrich went over to the pond and talked to the duckling in 'bird language'. the ostrich was telling the duckling that there was another much cleaner pond elsewhere in the zoo. and he volunteered to show her the place. so the ostrich stretched out his neck and let the duckling climbed onto it and went up to shore.

Ever since,friendship developed into a liaison relationship between the ugly duckling and the ostrich. though one was ugly and the other one was handshome, they both clicked very well.because of the time spent together, the ugly duckling subsequently fell in love with the ostrich. but the ugly duckling was not aware that the ostrich was already someone's else.when the ostrich was with the ugly duckling,she did everything she could to pamper him.she would saved up her food for the ostrich and even went around the zoo to source for beautiful things to decorate his nest.

surely, good things normally do come to an end. you cant always have the sweetest harvest all year round.in those days, the pigeon was used as a communicator(just like the current system of sms-ing). the pigeon came to the ugly duckling to collect a message for the ostrich.before the pigeon flew off,it was told to the ugly duckling that the ostrich was already going out with the swan.the pigeon also revealed other juicy gossips about the swan and the ostrich.

the ugly duckling was very sad. she felt cheated.she shed so many tears that the pond's water level was higher than normal.despite avoiding the ostrich for many days,he also told the duckling that everything would come to an end with the swan if the duckling will forgive him.because of the love she had for the ostrich, she decided to forgive the ostrich.but in her heart,she knew that the ostrich heart was not with her anymore because the zookeeper had previously took a picture of them together and ostrich was still hanging it in his nest.

perhaps there might be some code that's being decided among the animals that once mating started, you are not to be involved with anyone else. henceforth, the swan was furious that the ostrich had left her and she decided to stage a revenge on the ugly duckling. sadly,things were also not going pretty well because the ostrich was not as intimate anymore.because calling 'darling' belonged to the swan, the ostrich decide to adopt a different calling to the duckling.but that has also stopped after the incident. the duckling didnt know why.so the pigeon delivered the answers to her. besides the swan,there were more parties involved.because calling intimately would cause the ostrich to committ himself to the duckling and he didnt want to,fearing better chances would come his way. but yet,the ostrich still secretly continued calling 'darling' swan in his pigeon messages.

the revenge didnt led to a bloody mess. but the ugly duckling was hurt and felt betrayed.if she had knew that the ostrich was 'taken' in the 1st place, she wouldnt be so desperate to take away someone else's partner,let alone hearing that they have already mated.the ugly duckling only wanted a partner that is true to her,not just using words to make people happy but behind her, the swan and the ostrich were still secretly meeting each other.

the ostrich didnt want to say the truth to the ugly duckling but she managed to know alot of things about the ostrich through the pigeons.perhaps the ugly duckling would have no other option but choose to return the ostrich back to the swan's arms or to the rest of his partners.

Analysis:
Perhaps,the ugly duckling had probably taken this liaison too seriously.or perhaps it was just a game.or maybe just 'fowl play'.

What do you think?Do you pity the ugly duckling?

Being true and faithful no longer can guarantee that the relationship would be everlasting anymore?Is that the cold hard fact that the ugly duckling need to accept?
