This story takes place in a small town in the countryside. The characters are Stanely, his parents, a girl who he falls in love with, and a bird. The conflict is Stanley vs. himself. The climax is when his parents stop moving and buries them. The irony is that he thought it was the right idea to rebirth the bird, but the girl got scared and ran away. I think the bird represents life. The theme of this story is that there are things you can not control. In this case, life.
