Aside from a certain paranormal occurrence, Oliver is known for having good memory. He is able to remember ample memories from his childhood.
While impressive to some, he doesn’t always appreciate these memories.
He’d rather not spend nights trying to block away the times he called the teacher “mommy” or when he cried in class because his classmates were too loud.
But some of these scary memories are important to him.
Tumblr media
He remembers sitting on some log, looking at a stray chicken walking around, one of his many childhood hobbies.
When he heard loud barking
Tumblr media
Stray dogs! Dangerous dogs! Scary loud dogs!!
While he still hadn’t grasped the concept of death yet, he was sure he’d end up harmed. By the scary scary dogs.
Until.
Tumblr media
Something even scarier and louder than dogs
His Dad
Waving a stick and screaming words his little ears shouldn’t hear, his dad scared away the dogs.
He learned something useful that day: Dogs are scary. But Dad is scarier than dogs.
“Oliver.”
“Daddy…”
“I told you to wait there. Why did you walk away.”
“I saw chicken! It didn’t have a mommy, so it could’ve been lost!”
“By following it you also got lost. You could’ve gotten yourself and the chicken eaten by dogs”
“I’m sorry…”
“Will you ever stay in one place when I ask you to?”
At the tender age of 4, Oliver wasn’t very aware of what to do in the situation his dad put him in. That did not change even at his current 30’s.
But of course, his father being the most confusing human alive, decide to surprise him once more.
Tumblr media
“If you’re going to run off, make sure you know where you’re going, alright? I can’t ask the chicken for directions.”
“You can’t keep misbehaving like this. You’re going to enter school soon. Just the thought of it is making your mother sick with worry.”
“Why uppies?”
“So dogs don’t bother you anymore.”
Tumblr media
Daddy is scarier than dogs. Which means that every time he’s with daddy, no dogs will ever scare him! Because Dad is here!
“Daddy, chicken!”
“Don’t be loud if you’re near my ear”
Oliver hates to admit it, but his father is very much like himself. Incredibly bad with children.
He was never any good at carrying him, he remembers feeling uncomfortable.
Yet safe.
They went to get bread, like any other day. Usually, mommy does it but she’s busy washing clothes for other people.
And once she’s done, she’ll be so happy to see that he and daddy went to get bread!
“Bernardo, what a surprise! And little Oliver is here as well? Aaw he’s so big now”
“And yet still needs to be carried”
“Here, I should have… There! Would you like a snackie, Oliver?”
Tumblr media
“Please!”
“Don’t spoil him. Next time he’ll ask for it.”
“Don’t be so harsh with him, he can get any cookie he wants from me”
“That’s not something he should get used to.”
“How can you be so mean to a little face like that?”
“It’s my face”
Tumblr media
Eventually, his father’s arms get tired and he goes back to the floor.
“Stay. At least inside the store”
What his dad didn’t account for was an incredible happening just out in the street that could not be left unattended!
He saw a cat
Tumblr media
An unpetted cat! What a crime! As a good citizen, he went to fulfil his duty as the local cat friend.
With all that determination, he went running after it.
He bumped into someone.
Tumblr media
At that time he wasn’t aware of what was happening. Of everything that happened.
“OLIVER!”
His dad was loud again, as if he was scaring away a dog.
His little eyes couldn’t understand the danger he was in, but he could feel it anyways.
The man he bumped into looked like his little green toys, but scarier.
Tumblr media
He was dressed like a soldier.
