Squirrel Friend v3

Squirrel Friend

I heard a rustle outside my window today
Who can it be?
Shall I go see?
I hear a small chirp.
Oh hello friend!

What are you doing here?
You've come to see me again?!
Would you like to come in?
Maybe stop just for me?

Come on in my favorite guest.
No?
Oh... that's okay.
I'll wait for you
Right here in this nest.
Does it look nice?

That's what I think too!
You're so smart!
I like your tail.
Speckles and dots, how cute.

You look happy today.
I'm happy too.
That's what I tell you.
That's what I tell myself.

I knew an orange tabby.
Did he visit me too?
I can't quite recall.
Where did he go?
I don't really know?

I love your coat today, is it new?
Why haven't I see it till now?
Oh!
You've been gone for some days.
Well I love it all the same.

Maybe come show me?
I'd like it just a bit closer.
No?
Oh... that's okay.
I can see it from here.

Will you be honest with me?

Yay!

Do I bore you?
Have I've grown dull?

No no?
You say.

I love your paws!
They look so good.
Come dance with me!
No?

Oh... that's okay.

I loved to dance.
When I was a child.
Wait...
Am I not still?
Oh yes I could be!

Come see my paintings?!
Oh please say yes.
They need an audience!

No?

Oh... that's okay.

You can't see it?
Squint!
It might just appear.

How wonderful!
It hurts your eyes?

Well.
It's just not for you.

You wouldn't understand!!

Maybe it's me?

Can I tell you a secret?
This one's just for you.
You're my bestest friend!
Who else could I trust?

Thank you!!!

I think I used to be
just like you.
Can you believe it?
My secret is out.

Would you like another?
I'm so lucky to have you.
You'll always be mine.
And in my mind
maybe that's fine?

Come with you?
Oh no.
I don't know that I can.

You think I can do it?
Climb along with you?
Can your big tree carry me?

Are we still friends?
If I don't come with you?

No?

Oh... that's okay.

Or is it?
finally time.

Can I hold your hand?
Would you do it for me?

If I come to see you?
I'm so afraid
to rise through leaves.

Okay.
I agree.
I think.
It's time.

Is that the sun?
It's so bright.
I can barely see.

Can you hold me tight?
Does love wait for me?

"Take a single step."

Oh.
