Pokémon fankid week day 2: Family

Owen is almost six when he realizes his family is... different.

He’s always known that it was odd that his mommy and daddy always say stuff like “Owen, be more like Ezra” or “Owen, can’t you be like Briar? He never causes trouble” (his Granny Leslie tells him every time Mommy sees her), but he’s never really thought about it. It’s just normal! Everyone has parents that ask them to be different, be better, it’s how the world works.

Then his teacher asks everyone to draw their families and tell the class about them. That names would be drawn out of a hat, and that’s the order they’d go in. So Owen draws his family (and if he accidentally forgets about himself until he’s colouring in the sky, then nobody has to know except him and the crayon box). He makes sure he gets Mommy’s lipstick the right shade of pink because that’s important. He makes sure that everyone is smiling because his family has nice smiles, even though they don’t smile as often as they should. He makes sure everything is just right, like how Ezra would make it.

He’s the first name drawn, and so he goes up and shows his picture to the class and talks about his family. He talks about how it’s always “Owen you’re better than this” and “Ezra never causes scenes” and how he and his brothers are dropped off at one of their grandparents so often that Grandpa Felix says that it’s like raising kids all over again. He gets questions about what his Mommy and Daddy do and ignores the worried look his teacher gives him after he talks and talks and talks about his family.

(It’s the eighth person after him when he realizes that no one else has a family even slightly similar to his. Which is weird because everyone has the same kind of family where the grandparents do most of the work and the parents are always busy doing something else, right?)

It’s only when he gets home after class, a rare day when his Daddy picks him up when he really gets to show his work to people that he knows will like it. After all, Ezra’s drawings always get praise! 

When he shows his Daddy his work though, the drawing that he spent so long on and even longer talking about, he gets a blank stare.

“You spelt ‘mommy’ and ‘daddy’ wrong, Owen. You should talk to Ezra about that, spelling is very important and he’s very good at it.” His Daddy says, and then goes back to making supper.

And Owen frowns at that, because he already did ask Ezra for help in spelling and he said that the way he spelt ‘mommy’ and ‘daddy’ is right. Ezra would never lie to him, and Ezra is never wrong, so obviously the only correct answer is that his Daddy is wrong, but that seems wrong too.

Instead of asking Ezra for help though, Owen leaves his work of art on the counter next to his Daddy so that his Mommy can see it when she gets home. He knows that she will be happy that he made sure he got the right shade of lipstick for her!

He forgets to ask her if she saw his art after supper when she gets home.

(It’s the next day when he finds his art in the garbage with leftovers from supper on top of it when he remembers. And he cries because that is his hard work that is now forever ruined, unlike Ezra’s or Briar’s. He doesn’t understand why it’s his work in the garbage underneath food that is partially eaten. He doesn’t understand why his family is not like the ones he heard about the day before from his classmates.)

He’s almost six when he realizes that his family is different and does not like him.
