Crow?
But it seemed larger than an average one. Within few seconds it had reached quite close, and then I identified it as a raven. A big one. It started circling a little above of my window in a large loop. Strangely it felt like its eyes were observing me, scanning me with sharp gaze. Then it suddenly made a free fall and landed on the empty flower pot holder in front of my window. The raven locked its eyes with mine. The behaviour of this particular bird struck quite creepy to me. But I didn't care much. Perhaps I was not in mood. Or perhaps something was strange in that quiet summer morning.
I felt dizzy, perhaps because of the weather. I felt like I didn't want to leave that small room of mine. I had grown up there. I had spent most of my childhood and teenage years in that room. I loved that tiny apartment of mine. With that small window in front of me, it felt like a bird's nest which gave me an eagle eye view of the city. Where I could observe the flow of life, going on seamlessly, without getting stuck in it. I felt frustrated and kind of annoyed.
I yawned, "It would be good if nothing happens..." I muttered.
Kaw! Kaw! Kaw!
The sudden cry of the raven startled me.
"Shoosh!" I tried to shoo it away. But it seemed to ignore my effort completely.
Kaw! Kaw! Kaw!
I stared at it. I felt like something was wrong in that peculiar bird. Seemed like it found my words funny, which made it unable to control its laughter.
Kaw! Kaw! Kaw!
It was irritating. I thought of getting out of my bed and shooing it off. But then it started getting stranger.
As I mentioned before. Something was wrong in that silent morning.
At first it was like KAW! KAW! KAW! Then suddenly it turned KHI! KHI! KHI! KHI! in a voice which was abnormally humane, but the weirdest part was yet to come...
Suddenly it burst out in an uncontrollable ferocious laughter.
HAHAHA ! HAHAHAHA! HAHHAAHAHHA ! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA !
