John Smith, a British man in his 80s, helped a bird. Since then, the bird has made frequent trips to the coast to visit with its saviour. John visits this location daily to breathe in the sea air and see his bird companion.
While he is on the beach, the seagull soars or hovers nearby. Dorian never travels anywhere else than to John. Consequently, we may say that John and Dorian are the same age. I found Dorian while he was in need of assistance. I was at a loss for what to do.
The next day when I returned to the shore, I found him. The man started bringing his dog’s regular supply of seagull dog biscuits. As John went back to the coast each day to feed him, Dorian’s faith in him increased.
He no longer regarded others that way; such a connection only existed between the two of us. He became more effective and departed at the beginning of the spring, but when he came back in September of that same year, he hadn’t forgotten about me. Since then, John and Dorian have been seeing one another virtually every day.
