Chapter 10: Zoo
After they left the shop, Rhys brought her to the zoo. She was quite surprised though she wasn’t expecting him to take her to a place like that. He didn’t seem like someone who would visit a place like the zoo.
When they reached the place, they saw a huge crowd gathering in front of the gate. Some of them were buying entrance tickets while others were busy chatting.
This was Beatrix’s first time at a crowded place like this. She was standing beside Rhys as he bought their ticket.
"Okay let’s go." He took her hand and led her into the entrance of the zoo.
The entrance of the zoo had a sculpture of a giant tree with no leaves on its branches. The tree had different animals on it like monkey, peacock, bear and different bird.
A statue of a Lion had been built sitting in the front of the sculpture of the tree. There were also statues of Rhinoceros, zebra, and giraffes in the periphery area of the tree.
Then they came across a garden area where deer and stags were taking their strolls. The animals were very playful, smart, beautiful, and a pleasure to watch.
In one of the corners, Beatrix saw a huge tree where baboons and monkeys were jumping from one branch to the other.
They were very active and funny. They were playing pranks and tricks on one another. Some of them even came down when some people offered them bananas.
