    Born into a medical family, Amar, a 15-year-old boy, was expected to be a doctor, but deep down in his heart, he was eager to take up writing as his future career. He was in a great dilemma whether to pursue his dream or live up to his parents' expectation. until one day when his father gifted him a parrot.

    The parrot had two hazy lines in her neck: black and red. Amar knew the hazy lines mark the stage of learning. "When there is a good teacher, how can his student be stupid" ,he used to believe. It was absolutely true.

    Metto's cage was yellow with a big door and a shiny silver rod (杆) running through the centre. Metto's world was fantastic, surrounded by eight-foot white walls with some plum trees. And a lawn, with a palm tree in the middle, was dotted with multiple-color roses.

    Back home from school every afternoon, Amar always slid the door of the cage up for Metto to set her free nearby the palm tree. Metto could set herself free because she learned how to slide up the door but she had never tried to do so. It was either love with Amar or, might be, she had never tasted the taste of a bigger world.

    Amar always talked with Metto in Pashto (普什图语). Whenever Amar fished out peanuts from his pocket, Metto talked frequently "Toti choori khore" —parrot! Wanna eat choori. She had learned one more sentence after meeting with a friend belonging to jungle outside the white walls. She always said that at the end of meal "Da wakht bam teer she"—this shall to be passed, which Amar had never taught her.

    Amar saw her friend coming daily and sitting in the plum tree nearby Metto's cage. He let them and did nothing. "The new one can never succeed in winning her. After all, I feed her well. She will never leave me", Amar murmured. But he didn't know the new teacher had taught her something the old one hadn't. It was the outer world with untouchable horizon.
