The sun was setting and the sky was getting gloomy. Carlos was walking home when he heard a rustling noise in a nearby bush. He went closer to take a look and saw a note next to a small box. He opened the box and found a small bird inside. The bird was scared and Carlos tried to calm it down.
"Don't be scared, little bird. I won't hurt you," he whispered. The bird calmed down a bit and Carlos read the note. It said that the bird's owner was going away for a long time and couldn't take him along. Carlos felt sad for the bird and decided to keep him.
He took the bird home and made a small nest for him. He closed the window so the bird wouldn't fly away and fed him his favorite snacks. He also wrote a note of his own explaining that he had taken the bird in. 
The little bird was very grateful and they became the best of friends. Living with him made Carlos forget all his worries and sadness, even on the gloomiest of days.
