Mr. Malone- Day 3

Oh, it was a tough journey, all right. A journey so tough that only a brave man, such as I, could have endured. A journey that was not pleasant, not pleasant at all. Yet, somehow Jamal and the creature had made it this far. But Jamal lived every day like this, or so he said, not to mention he carried Squitten in my golf bag for some reason. I just he didn’t get his hair or scales or whatever it was that was covering him on the bottom of the bag. The positive to this, though, was that I gained some quality time with Bessie.
“Only a little longer, my dear,” I whispered to her.”When we get home I’ll have Niles give you a hot wax and spring water bath. That should make you as good as new!”
“ Dude stop talking to yourself, “Jamal interrupted.” It’s the first sign of jungle madness and it’s already embarrassing enough to be seen with you like this”
Right. Because I’m embarrassing.
“ Oh don’t throw a wobbly. I know you’re not as chuffed as nuts to be here either.”
“Wha-” Just as Jamal was about to question my choice of British terms, it seemed that karma had finally kicked in, for something fell from the sky and knocked Jamal out cold. Sadly he awoke to me chuckling merely a minute after it happened.
“Ow, what was that?” He asked as if I should now, rubbing his head.
I simply answered “ At least there was nothing in there to get damaged”.
Before Jamal had a chance to deflect my clever answer, and having a brief conversation debating whether I had “Jungle Fever”, something swooped in and nearly knocked me out, too.
“ BLIMEY, WHAT WAS THAT?!”
“Oh, sorry, mon,” The thing I finally concluded was a bird said.” I was on my way delivering food to all the homeless birds in the forest when I dropped one of the packages.”
“ Hey! They did that in my neighborhood, too!” screamed Jamal.
Ignoring him, replied “ That is fine, my good...bird. He was full of beans, anyways. It’ll do him good to get some sense knocked into him.”
“Oh...” The bird said with a look of concern.” Well you two look a little lost. Not from around here, huh?”
“Oh, goodness, no! The one time I take public transportation I somehow get transported to this weird place in the middle of nowhere with this useless knob!” I exclaimed, gesturing to  Jamal.
“Hey!” He whined, but I simply ignored him.
“Could you help me home?”
And me!”
“And where was it you were from again?”
“ Well, I originate from Great Brittan, but moved here to pursue my dream to become the chief executive of Golf Monthly. Although, it would be nice if you could transport me to upstate New York for my golf tournament today.”
 Just then a smile creeped onto the toucan's face."What is this 'golf' that you mention?"
