Bears in a Cage

Once, I was traveling around in Aomori. I stopped by an old shop. It was so infrequently visited that there was a faint layer of dust on the boxes of cookies, and the labels had been faded by the sun. I considered buying a can of apple juice, but instead walked around the property. In one corner there was a bear in a cage. It was summer and the bear's black matted fur glistened. I suppose you could say she was a pet bear, but the cage was small and looked uncomfortable. A little girl who lived there, came over and fed the bear some carrots from a bucket. I felt like I wanted to sneak back and let the bear out, so she could go back to Bear Land. I didn't though, I took a bus to some hot springs. ..... Thats the end of my true bear in a cage story.
