Holiday Rejects

Truth

It has been over a month since Sonny was created. During the time, Sonny has learned to read and write well. He did a lot of things well, but the one thing is…

”Come on Sonny. Say Mommy!” Sally said sitting in front of her son.

“…”

“Come on. You can do it“, she said cheering him on.

“…Mo-”

“Why are you even bothering with him. He’s never going to talk“, Jake said before Sonny even got the chance to speak for the first time.

“Jack! Stop being mean to Sonny Bunny!!” Sally yelled.

“What the hell is a bunny?”

“I have no clue but it sounds cute and it rhymes with his name!”

With a sigh, Sonny went to his bedroom, where it contain his prized stuff through out the time of the whole month and a half he lived.

“Man why does dad have to be so mean. He hasn’t allowed me to talk to mom since I started trying about three weeks ago. But why?”, Sonny said to himself as he started looking through the window.

Yup, he knows how to talk but Jack is being a jackass and will not let him talk to his mom.

He couldn’t figure out why his father was so nice to everyone but him. From all the stuff he read from, aren’t dads supposed to be nice and protecting? He didn’t understand it at all. He just back down stairs to get

something to eat when he heard them arguing.

“Why do you treat him like that! Tell me now!”, Sally yelled.

“Just because!”, Jack yelled back.

“That’s not an answer!”

“Because he’s different! Happy now!”, he said facing the other way. Sonny didn’t know what his dad meant by different but he seem to not like it. Sonny felt terrible. Why was he was different? Maybe he’ll ask

mom about it later. Now he doesn’t feel too hungry.

So he went back to his room and started to the thing that he did every time he felt a bad feeling. He finds something that he could make a interesting noise. In a rhythm, off-rhythm, fast, slow, sad, happy. All the

things he could thing of. He just played. And he played for hours. And hours. And he felt great now.

But sadly the problems didn’t go away. As the fighting quiets, he went back down stairs to get something to eat. He got himself a few worm and maggots and ate it up. SLAM! Meaning that the fight is over and

Jack is piss off and went to do something.

He goes to the living room and sees Sally rubbing her forehead. “Oh hi Sonny. I’m sorry if you heard any of that“, Sally said to him. “M-mom? H-how am I different like dad said?”, Sonny said surprising his mother

with the fact he could talk.

And then she case a sad look as she began to answer him.

“Sonny honey. Well your different because you these things from the inside of you called organs and blood. And unlike everyone in Halloween-town, they work…so your very unusual. And your dad isn’t taking it

well. But it’s alright, sooner or later he’ll accept you”

I hope your right, mom. But I have a bad feeling about this.
