The House of Birds

Like a normal day my mom was gardening and planting some flowers in the backyard. I was on the deck watching her as the wind blew towards my forehead. There were lots of sunshine and blooming trees, also the sound of chirping in my ears. There were two birds that were on the garage roof. They brought some food of some sort. But I didn't know what it was. They were small birds with wings wider than there bodies.
I walked towards the door and opened it. As I was about to close the door a bird came in our house! Then the other one came in!
I started to run down my deck, down the stairs and towards my mom. My mom was still doing the same things she was doing when I was on the deck. I finally got to her and tugged her towards the stairs and on to the deck while saying “Mom, come please!!!”
As we came through the door the birds were at the kitchen. “What happened?!” screamed my mom as I took a step forward I saw that the birds were flying around destroying stuff by dropping there bird droppings.
“Two birds came in the house.” I sighed. I tried to help by closing the entrances and exits of the kitchen so they wouldn’t go everywhere. My mom’s eyes dropped as more droppings dripped to the floor. The floor slowly turned as beautiful like a waxed ballroom floor to a dump witch had a horrid feeling to it.
My mom gave a swing at it with a towel for a while. But they didn't go out the door. The only thing left to do was to wait and try to shoo the birds out the door.
My mom started to scream at me saying. “Why did you open the door and let the birds in!?!” But I said nothing back and kept swinging the towel at the birds.
Finally one went out the door. I sighed, I started to breathe hardly. My heart was pounding and sweat was dripping down my spine.
So I took another swing at it with a towel and it finally went out the door. I sighed, it was finally over.
But the kitchen was full of droppings like a dirty car parked in the same spot for years. After we cleaned the floor it was over.
