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 doesnât always appreciate these memories.
Heâd rather not spend nights trying to block away the times he called the teacher âmommyâ or when he cried in class because his classmates were too loud.
But some of these scary memories are important to him.
He remembers sitting on some log, looking at a stray chicken walking around, one of his many childhood hobbies.
When he heard loud barking
Stray dogs! Dangerous dogs! Scary loud dogs!!
While he still hadnât grasped the concept of death yet, he was sure heâd end up harmed. By the scary scary dogs.
Until.
Something even scarier and louder than dogs
His Dad
Waving a stick and screaming words his little ears shouldnât hear, his dad scared away the dogs.
He learned something useful that day: Dogs are scary. But Dad is scarier than dogs.
âOliver.â
âDaddyâŚâ
âI told you to wait there. Why did you walk away.â
âI saw chicken! It didnât have a mommy, so it couldâve been lost!â
âBy following it you also got lost. You couldâve gotten yourself and the chicken eaten by dogsâ
âIâm sorryâŚâ
âWill you ever stay in one place when I ask you to?â
At the tender age of 4, Oliver wasnât very aware of what to do in the situation his dad put him in. That did not change even at his current 30âs.
But of course, his father being the most confusing human alive, decide to surprise him once more.
âIf youâre going to run off, make sure you know where youâre going, alright? I canât ask the chicken for directions.â
âYou canât keep misbehaving like this. Youâre going to enter school soon. Just the thought of it is making your mother sick with worry.â
âWhy uppies?â
âSo dogs donât bother you anymore.â
Daddy is scarier than dogs. Which means that every time heâs with daddy, no dogs will ever scare him! Because Dad is here!
âDaddy, chicken!â
âDonât be loud if youâre near my earâ
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 sheâs busy washing clothes for other people.
And once sheâs done, sheâll be so happy to see that he and daddy went to get bread!
âBernardo, what a surprise! And little Oliver is here as well? Aaw heâs so big nowâ
âAnd yet still needs to be carriedâ
âHere, I should have⌠There! Would you like a snackie, Oliver?â
âPlease!â
âDonât spoil him. Next time heâll ask for it.â
âDonât be so harsh with him, he can get any cookie he wants from meâ
âThatâs not something he should get used to.â
âHow can you be so mean to a little face like that?â
âItâs my faceâ
Eventually, his fatherâs arms get tired and he goes back to the floor.
âStay. At least inside the storeâ
What his dad didnât account for was an incredible happening just out in the street that could not be left unattended!
He saw a cat
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.
At that time he wasnât aware of what was happening. Of everything that happened.
âOLIVER!â
His dad was loud again, as if he was scaring away a dog.
His little eyes couldnât 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.
He was dressed like a soldier.
