“I don’t think we should go in there,” Brad said cautiously. “C’mon Brad, would you rather drink the nectar from the flowers in the same boring field like always, or here in this massive garden with a huge variety of flowers that we’ve never even tried?” Bruce asked.
The two best friends were resting at the entrance of the marvelous flower garden while the other bees from the hive went to the same field like they always did. They had never gone any further than the gate although Bruce had always wanted to.

Brad knew he would rather join his friend in the glorious feast right in front of him, than worry about a human that probably wouldn't even come outside, let alone see them. He decided that he was probably overreacting and joined Bruce with the sunflowers. They lost track of time and spent an hour buzzing from flower to flower, eager to try the new flowers they had never seen before.
After they were satisfied, they rested on a marigold flower and observed their surroundings. They found themselves in the flower bed right beside the steps to the porch of the house. They had gone farther than they intended to go but they weren't worried as long as there were no signs of any humans. They weren't even 100% sure there were any humans around, as no one they knew had ever been inside the garden.
"So do you think humans are really as dangerous as everyone says they are?" asked
