The morning show had just ended. The bright ON AIR sign had dimmed, leaving the studio wrapped in a lazy hum of silence broken only by a faint rustle of papers. The smell of fresh coffee lingered.
Lisha leaned back in her chair, letting out a long sigh of relief. "Thank God, the show is over, one more minute of you saying something absurd and I would pluck those feathers out."
"I can sue you for animal cruelty!" Zulu answered, feathers furling tightly especially the colored ones.
Lisha scoffed. "Let us discuss about tomorrow's show, specifically how not to offend more people than you already have. What were you thinking by bringing up Tommy Kirkland and his girlfriend's secret forbidden romance? You do know that he can electrocute you, right?"
Zulu squawked and laughed. "If they don't want to be seen, they should hide deeper. They kissed in front of Miss Tuchi's frog. He is the biggest gossip on this base for your information."
