Birth Defect

2014


Roy was nine years old. He was in school on this day, he was playing Pokemon on the bench with his friends, Adam, and Kaden.

Roy was playing as a large boy walked up. He was chubby, with short brown hair in a bowl cut. And he was eating a candy bar. Chocolate was on his face and shirt.

"Hey, weirdo. What are you staring at?!" the boy asked.

The skinny and tiny Lombax looked at him and smiled awkordly.

"Um… nothing. Jimmy. H-how are you…" Roy asked waving.

"Stop looking at me you alien!" demanded the boy. Roy tried to look the other way. But he smelled something. The nine-year-old pinched his nose and then looked back at the boy.

"Is that you?" Roy asked

"Yeah, so what?! What are you going to do about it freak?! You look like a raccoon!"

Roy growled at the boy, his anger boiling inside him as he tried not to lash out at him. The fourth grader didn't know what to do. He was stuck between beating the crap outta him or telling his older brother. But. if he told his brother he would be seen as weak, a coward in front of this stupid jerk that looked like he was in fifth grade.

His parents also told him, that if someone fights with you. Fight back, that has been their way forever. since his father was a Galatic Ranger and his mother was a member of the resistance, so. He could get away with this right?

"Hey, kitty boy! You raccoon freak! Stupid freak! What even are you? And why are you furry, you and your bother too? Y'all a bunch of freaks and weirdos!" the boy, Jimmy taunted him.

Roy's anger boiled inside of him as he took a awing and broke the boy's nose.

Roy smirked as students, stunned as they all saw what had just happened, Roy Davis, the soft-spoken kid, the non-violent Lombax, pinched someone. Everyone was shaken by the outcome. This will be the most talked about thing in the 2014 school year.

His teacher walks up to him.

"Grab your stuff, Roy. You're going to the principal's office." his teacher, Miss Jordan said. Roy's ears hung low as they went back inside.


Rivet came to the school. Miss Jordan didn't tell her what was going on. All she knew was that she had to come to the school.

Rivet opened the door to the office and she saw Roy sitting in a chair, in front of the Principal's desk. Roy had his head in his arms, Rivet put a hand on his shoulder. Roy looked at her with tears in his eyes.

"Hey… how are you feelng?" Rivet asked.

"I feel like butt, mom…" he sniffled as he adjusted his LAKERS SnapBack and put his head down on the desk.

Rivet put a hand on his back and rubbed the text 'BRYANT' on the upper back of his jersey.

"Why? Why do you feel like that?" she asked.

"I-I punched someone, but it was only because they were making fun of my birth defect!" Roy said, defending himself. Rivet smiles at her son.

"I'm not mad, Roy… you did what I and your dad taught both you and RJ, and I am proud of you kiddo." Rivet gave him a fist bump.

"Let's grab RJ and go out for ice cream and Starbucks." Rivet said. Roy hugged his mom.

"Thank you, mom!" he smiled as they got out of the school, with RJ and went to grab ice cream.
