Red Bird

Red Bird by Yan Yakirevich (A Short Story Contest entry)

Lately, I have been seeing red birds when I go outside. After doing some research, I learned that seeing a red bird has a secret meaning behind it. Did you know that a red bird symbolizes good luck and loyalty? Some people believe that if you see a red bird, then that means that you will experience good luck 12 days after the sighting. Red birds can also mean that compassion is coming your way.
