7. Butterflies.
Kid liked butterflies.
While other boys would admire the ferocity of the lion, or the fearsome nature of a shark, Kid adored the simple grace and symmetrical beauty of the butterfly. To him, there was pretty much no more elegant animal on earth.
He watched from the window in the kitchen as a few butterflies fluttered about in the garden outside. They hovered above the flowers before gently landing and dining on the nectar.
He then began to imagine himself as a butterfly. Well, at first he imagined himself as a beautiful graceful butterfly. Then, his mind suddenly switched to imagining him as a butterfly with one of his antennae broken and his wings too pitifully tiny to get his massive body off the ground before his wings were engulfed by the folds of his fleshy body and he soon more resembled a slug in his imagination rather than a butterfly.
Kid then shook his head to snap himself out of his daydream before sighing and leaving the kitchen.
You're not a butterfly. he thought to himself sadly, You're just a fat, ugly, assymetrical slug.
