A Perfect Family Picture
A Perfect Family Picture
He moved his black slate towards me, and I laughed at once.
The kid had drawn his family picture, his dad with a round face and square tummy had a trouser up to his knees, with funny fingers, his mother with wild hair and bushy eyebrows was taller than his father with one leg floating in midair, his brother with spiked hair and strong arms had a fierce look on his face, his sister with a flat smile and small eyes was looking at him in the picture, she had a weird sense of dressing and a crazy hairstyle, the boy in the picture was holding hands to hands and was happy with his family. He filled the sky and sister with his favourite blue crayon and rest everything was left white, so when I asked he said
“I lost my favourite crayon” he complained..
And I looked back at the slate, where everyone was smiling together for once,
and me, well I was smiling too.
