9. At the highest point

Birdi-Q stands at the departure terminal to Neverland – ready for a flight into the unknown. It’s her check-in for takeoff into the unfamiliar, a moment between sky and earth, between courage and doubt.

The thought of "Lucy in the Sky" echoes in her mind – weightless, dreamlike, ready to surrender to the flight. The takeoff platform lies ahead, a place that holds more promises than safety.

Here she stands – trusting only her sense of balance, without support, without a net, without safety. Every step is a dance between gravity and floating, between risk and control.

Exposed to the unfamiliar, she must believe that her arms, like wings, will spread wide to catch the first updraft. She must trust that the sky itself calls her, that her own strength will carry her – to make the leap, the leap into the open ➜
