Lorcan jumped at the sound of his own name. He span around and saw Kylie. "Oh hello! I didn't notice you come in, you gave me a shock." He gave her a wide smile.
He looked back at his barn owl. "Come down now please Athena, Kylie would like to meet you." The owl hooted and flew down, perching on the window sill.
"She loves attention, especially from girls." He stroked the owl gently on the head. "I'm glad I bumped into you. I wanted to ask you something."
Kylie giggled, it had always appeared to her that animals have liked her more than people have. She pet the beautiful owl on the head softly, running her fingers through Athena's feathers. "Yes? What is it?" Kylie urged the conversation forward.
