Uniqueness
All his childhood was sad because he didn’t want to go to school, so he homeschooled; therefore, he had just a few friends of his neighborhood and his family.
His mom always told him that no matter he had no stripes, everybody is beautiful, just the way it is and he doesn’t have to underestimate himself because he was pretty and handsome; despite that, Tom, the tiger, didn’t understand it nor wasn't satisfied with that explanation.
Years passed by and he grew up, he had to go to college
because he had to study a career and become a professional, but Tom didn’t know about the world because he lived locked all his life, but it was time to really LIVE.
His first day of college was a little weird because he didn’t know what to do and how to act, but he learned how to manage the situations with the elapsing time.
There was a group of bullies who always told him bad stuff and he felt bad, he called his mom telling her that he didn’t want to be there anymore.
One day he met a tiger called Alysha, who was very pretty and he immediately felt in love, but he didn’t have the courage to tell her what he felt, so they were like best friends and did everything together; however, he never realized that she was in love too, but she was afraid to unvail her feelings.
Time passed and she dared to tell him that she was in love with him and she didn’t care about his look, she loved him just the way he was; as a consequence, that day he learned that no matter how you look, there will always be someone who will accept you and love you just the way you are because nobody is perfect and everybody is different, you need to love yourself, since no one is going to be like you!
