Why Did The Chicken Cross The Road?

Over the past years, we have satirically laughed at the thought of a chicken crossing a road. But have you ever considered the truth about just why that chicken made the journey? In this short story, I aim to solve this problem.
==Bert==
It all begins when Bert, our chicken, was born. His mother was a teen when she had him and since the father had ran as far away as he could, Bert's poor mother couldn't afford to give him a good upbringing. He developed anger management problems and got in many fights at school, even in junior school at this time! By the time he was able to leave school he had few qualifications and was unable to continue on to college. He wanted to work in a restaraunt. However, with his little qualifications and anger management issues he was unable to get any work at all. He was pushed onto the backstreets with no money and had to start selling his body to get any money he could. Poor Bert was eventually taken in by a homeless shelter and attempted to meet up with his father.
At this point, we come to the climax in our story. Bert crossed the road to find his father's flat. When he got there, his father took him in and he got to work in his restaraunt. Unfortunately for bert, his dad owned KFC.
