A face not even a mother could love.

There was a little boy that constantly looked for love and acceptance. Have you ever head of Quasimodo? Story of his life. No one wanted the strange, weird looking boy. He had no friends everyone tried to stay away from him. They said he had cooties, and there was no cure, especially for someone like him.

He would sit alone and watch the other kids play games like hopscotch, leap frog, tag, and jump rope. He was never asked to join in.

One day he found a friend, a true companion that would stay by his side. He found a toad. A huge washed out gray looking green covered in warts grotesque toad. It became his best friend. It didn't judge him, didn't shun him, just stayed with him.

The boy named the toad Mortimer, sometimes affectionately called Sir Morty the Warty. It didn't matter that no one else wanted him; he had his best friend by his side.

Time goes on, and as we all know creatures are fragile beings. The boy was alone again. It still hurt that everyone else shunned and hated him, but he had learned so much from Mortimer. He will never forget his friend or the lessons he learned, and he knows one day he'll find other Mortimers.

His story is a lot like Rudolph's, just with a different outcome.


Thanks again for reading! Please let me know what you think, I really appreciate any and all feedback.
