Family
Odd Della Robbia woke up on Sunday morning and a beautiful morning at that but Odd had no time to pay attention to this because his 5 sisters had once again locked him up in the bathroom for the whole night. Being the only boy wasn't easy. On times like this Odd really hated his sisters, but there were times he could enjoy their company. Oh yeah I forgot to tell you why Odd was at home : It was Christmas break. He'd rather spend the vacation with his friends at Kadic Academy: He was the only one who had to go home.
"Odd! Where are you?" He heard his mother yell.
"In the bathroom,mom!" He yelled back to his mother.
"Odd, why is door locked?" his mom asked.
"Because I've been here all night, the girls thought it was funny to lock me up again." His mom opened the door. Odd absolutely adored his parents but mostly his mom from which he had inherited the purple spot just above his forehead as only child in the 6 kids-family. His mom : Marguerita Della Robbia from which he had inherited his liking of art, the only thing he got from his father : Robert Della Robbia was his blond hair and a few lines such as 'About face!' Odd was Marguerita's favorite child she had told him herself but she asked not to tell his sisters : she had wanted a son so badly. When she had Odd it would have been their last child definitely because she was getting to old but she was so delighted to have a boy. The reason they called him Odd was because it was a rarity in the Della Robbia family had boys and because his birth happened really strange. Odd was born at stroke midnight not a second earlier or later, his name was going to be Fred but they thought of all the strange events happening Odd's birth they decided to call him Odd.
"Girls!" His mom yelled and suddenly all his sisters appeared : Elisabeth, Pauline, Louise, Marie and Adele.
"Who's clever idea was it to lock Odd up in the bathroom?" His mom asked and all fingers went to Pauline.
"Pauline, what did I tell you last time?" His mom asked Pauline in a scolding kind of way.
"Don't lock Odd up anywhere." All the girls said in unison.
"That's right now scram!" his mom said and the girls dispersed to do whatever.
"I hate being the only boy, being the youngest is bad enough." Odd mumbles not wanting his mom to hear.
"Want to talk about it?" she asked guess it didn't work. Odd just nodded.
"Let's talk in your room." his mom said walking along some doors which all had name-tags on it when she came to the last one it read Odd in graceful letters and under it a paper with Odd written on it but in a much more scribble kind of writing which Odd himself had made when he was seven.
They entered the room which had purple walls with some pink and yellow cat paw-prints that Odd had added yesterday.
"You have drawn cat paws?" his mother asked.
"Inside joke." Odd said thinking of Lyoko. The room also had a purple bureau and a bed which had purple bedsheets on it (surprise!), Odd's room was one of the cleanest in the house considering he was at boarding school for almost a full 10 months.
"What's so bad about being the only boy? I was delighted when I had you." Marguerita said.
"I know but remember when I was seven."
/Flashback/
Little Odd had drawn a little cat and was just coloring it in purple when Elisabeth and Marie grabbed him from behind and dragged him all the way to Adele's room, where the rest of his sisters were waiting they pulled a pink dress over Odd's head and put his hair in 2 ponytails tied his hands together and set him back in his room. When some time later his mom called for dinner and Odd didn't come down she went upstairs and found Odd crying with his hands tied together and duck tape over his mouth, this was the 5th time that had happened in 5 days this had to stop.
"Odd sweety what happened?" Marguerita asked removing the duck tape from both his mouth and his hands.
"I was drawing when Elisabeth and Marie came." Odd said hugging his mom and crying.
/End Flashback/
"Yes I remember how many times after that happened?" She asked.
"Seven times, but then they couldn't do it anymore because I was to strong." Odd said, he sometimes still had nightmares about that.
"And remember the time they put the spider in my bed?" Odd asked.
"Yes, you slept between me and your father that night." She said.
"I love you the most of my children Odd you know why?" Marguerita asked.
"No." Odd said.
"Because you're my only son, you and only you inherited the purple in your hair and most of all your sense of art. Your sisters can't draw a cat now, your first perfect draw cat was at age 4. Your special, your Odd." Marguerita said.
"I'm weird." Odd said.
"Maybe and a bit crazy too. I know you get a lot of odd comments when you say : I'm Odd but remember no-one else in the world has that name."
"Hey! I'm hungry." He said.
"You're always hungry but it's lunch time anyways. Girls! Lunch!" Marguerita screamed walking out Odd's room. Being the only boy and the youngest was annoying, yes! But it also had it's good sides : he was mommy's little favorite, almost always got what he wanted and got no old stuff because it was all girls stuff. Actually being the only boy and youngest meant being a little spoiled by grandparents, aunts, uncles, parents and sometimes on very rare occasions sisters.
So this is Odd's vision of family if anyone wants to see the others please say so. I knew that being the youngest and being the only other gender in a big family isn't so nice because my dad's family exists of 4 brothers and 1 girls. Read and Review.
