My life is far from easy. But I know people have it worse. My family have money. Alot. Some families don't have enough to live. My family is big and loving. Some people don't have anyone to love. However Some people are also tall enough to see over a pub bar. I am not one of those people. I was diagnosed with dwarfism a long time ago. It makes daily tasks more challenging I will admit. But it also makes me stronger mentally and physically. I don't think of it as a disability. More of a unique character trait. And I like being little. It makes me....Well me.

However sometimes, people don't always understand that I am little, not unable to do simple tasks. I can walk down the street without needing help. I can get on the sofa without needing someone to lift me and I can live my life as every other human being without having what feels like a full time carer.

My family have got used to my size. They don't treat me differently all the time. I still get teased like the rest of my siblings. And in a way, I'm glad. It means they don't walk on eggshells around me. They understand I am me and not just that little person. However, it isn't always like this.

I was currently walking to the betting shop next to John. I barely made it to his waist. He was doing his usual comedic teasing as we walked

"So, any boys I need to beat up?" He asked nudging me playfully with a smirk on his face. The truthful answer was no. Not any boys for him to punch. Although there is a boy in my life. I would rather his face not have a black eye to go with it.

"Unless you wanna punch yourself then nope" I said looking up at him. He out his hand on his heart and was dramatically upset

"Ooo. That one hurt" he said clutching at his chest. I laughed slightly at his dramatic performance. But my laughing was put to a stop when I felt my feet leave the ground.

"What the fuck? John! Put me down ya far bastard" I said slapping him angrily

"The kids over there are playing football. I don't want it coming over here and hurting you" he confessed

"We've talked about this. I'm not made of glass. I'm a shelby. Tough as bricks" I said as he put me down when we were outside the betting shop. We walked in but I was still pissed off at him

"Come on. Don't be like that" he begged as I gave him the cold shoulder. I went to take a seat next to esme when I felt finn lift me onto the stool.

"I'm not a kid finn. So do me a favour and fuck off" I said  and then I checked some numbers

"What did my idiot of a husband do now then?" Esme asked me also ignoring John

"Treats me like more of a fucking child than he does his own kids" i grumbled. Esme darted John a look which made him cower

"Ignore him. He's never understood how not to be a dickhead" I smirked at esmes words and nodded my head in agreement. Then Tommy walked in and he looked pissed off as fuck

"Hey Tommy. Alright?" I asked

"Piss of rose" he said

"Woah! Hold up! I'm your favourite. I'm the youngest. It's only natural that I am the most loved" I said to him surprised he said such words to me. He looked at me and I almost saw him smile. Almost

"You are the most loved. Doesn't mean I love you alot. Just means I hardly love the others" he said.

"Cheers for that tom" finn said walking past him

"You're very welcome" Tommy replied. He really could be a dick.

"Anyway, I'm pissed off if ya must know" he said returning to my previous question.
