And then, the egg started to hatch 
and out came a very large duckling.

But to everyone's surprise, 
it was much uglier than the others.

But why did all the others come out good looking and only one ugly if they all had the same mother?

Well son, it has to do with genetics.

And the days passed by, and his appearance didn't change...

and everyone started to call him "Ugly Duckling."

Hey, aren't you a little too old for me 
to be reading you stories?

It reminds me of mom.

She always used to read them to me.

Yeah.

Well... the duckling was very sad because nobody loved him.

And why did no one love him?

I don't know... because he was different.

Like me?

You're not different.

Why do you say that?

Because I have glasses...

and a boy in my class calls me four-eyes.

And I have asthma...

And no one wants to play soccer with me or hang out with me at recess.

And this is because I'm different.

And anyway, there's something else.

What?

It's a secret that I can't tell anyone.

You can tell me! I'm your father.

It's better if I tell you some other day, okay?

Are you going to finish reading me the story?

No.

It's late now.

...and stop thinking about this nonsense about being different.

You're a normal kid... like everyone else.

Come on, don't worry anymore.

Good night.

Good night.

No. I need the numbers tomorrow.

Yes I know it's very late.
I'm very sorry.

But...

Can you email them to me, please?

That's what I wanted to hear.
Thank you very much.

Unbelievable.

My love, 5 minutes
I swear

But your the boss
and bosses don't work this much

No... I have to finish this report for tomorrow
Honestly

No, no, no... not now.
You're done.

Don't be cruel

Let's see if you like it.

No, I don't like it.
I don't like it at all !

Yes...

No... not at all!

I don't like you one bit!

No... come on... no!

Mommy...

Can I sleep with you?

My love, I already told you
You have to sleep in your own room, no?

Come on
What's the matter?

I closed my eyes

And I saw bad guys coming

They took me to a house
and I didn't see you or daddy again

No my love
That's not going to happen

That's never going to happen to you

Go to sleep

I'm really scared

And I saw you hurt your foot on my train

You ran out to the street
