Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story through that donut. We get it off you, and then we split it three ways." Brad didn't trust Phil. "You just want my donut." "Oh, I get it," said Phil with a hurt look on his face. "And I thought we were friends. You think all we want is that donut. Well, I have news for you, buddy, pal. Sean and I will get that donut off you, and you can have it all to yourself. Right, Sean?" Sean looked at the donut around Brad's neck. "Couldn't we just eat–" "Sean!" "Yeah, sure," Sean agreed. Phil continued. "We'll get the donut off you and fly away, leaving you and your donut together for some quality time." Brad thought about this for a moment. "You would do that?" "Sure," said Phil. "We're friends, and friends help each other out. Friends also share things with each other, but I'm starting to think that maybe you're not our friend. Because a friend would share, especially when he has a large, chocolate-glazed donut. "With multi-coloured sprinkles," added Sean. Brad paused and thought about what Phil had said. "You're right, Phil. I don't know what came over me." "Greed," said Phil. "Multi-coloured sprinkles?" asked Sean. "Both," replied Brad. "My eyes became as glazed over as this donut, and I became greedy. Please forgive me and eat this donut off me; the chocolate is melting and sticking to my feathers." "You heard our friend," Phil said and he began to peck away at the donut. "Sure thing," Sean answered and started on the opposite side. A few minutes later, the two of them had the donut in three even pieces at their feet. "Just one thing left to do," said Phil. "What's that?" asked Brad. "Milk," answered Phil. "Milk?" "Milk. Can't eat a donut without a glass of cold milk." "How about half a cup of cold coffee?" Sean yelled. Brad and Phil turned around to see Sean standing in a paper cup a distance away. "No thanks," Phil yelled back. "I'm not that thirsty any more." "Yeah," added Brad. "I think I'll eat this one dry." Sean looked down at his legs, knee deep in the brown liquid. "But I thought friends shared everything?" The End. My other fiction is available at smashwords.com or at my website in PDF format with cover art.
