(Before I go on may I please have some of your time to get you to listen to our savior Ben Platt go: whoop whoop whoop whoop,whoop whoop whoop,whoop,OUH in the video above? Thank you.)

    Evan sat alone at home, his mother was at work and he had no friends. He pitifully checked his phone to see if Jared had texted him anything. He of course hadn't,it was no surprise.Evan was left alone till his mother came back from work.
    He figured the best way to past the time was to grab a piece of paper and just draw. He didn't know what to draw so he started out with trees. He tried to draw a maple tree(the most common tree in America) but it was a lot harder then he thought it was. He moved on from trees to people. He wasn't very good at it and followed a style that he had seen in most cartoons when he was younger.
The person Evan found himself drawing was a male with long hair that had a bang slightly covering his left eye. Evan imaged the hair to be a brilliant,shiny brown. The eyes were just large ovals with bags under them from lack of sleep. The character' eyebrows were knitted together in confusion and the character held a uncertain smile on his lips.Evan shrugged and moved down to neck and gave him a hoodie that had the sleeves rolled up.
Evan tried to add arm hair but it just ended up looking like self harm scars so he thought he would make them that. Soon enough the whole page was filled with the same character and his failed maple tree. He smiled at his work for a moment and searched up popular male names on his phone.
"Louis? No. Uh...oh! Ethan! No...oh." He stopped on one that he thought would fit."Connor." He smiled and scribbled the name on the page and shoved it in his folder quietly. Evan put his phone down again and looked around. Hopefully his mom would be here soon.
    Almost like she was called Heidi opened the door to the house and entered. Evan heard his name called so he ran down the stairs and saw his mother holding something."Hey Evan! Look what I found!" Heidi held up the thing more. His eyes opened wide as he saw what it was.
    It was a cat. A black cat with one amber eye. Evan couldn't tell what the other one was because it was closed tightly."Poor thing..." Heidi began. Evan saw the tear streaks under her eyes."He just sat there in the rode, almost like he wanted to get ran over." She let out a small laugh and handed the cat to Evan.
    "The vet said that we could keep him." Heidi scratched the tom's head."I figured you would need a friend." She smiled sweetly at Evan and he returned the smile."So,what's his name?"
    The question took Evan by surprise and he looked at the cat closer. The left eye being closed reminded him of his character and he smiled to himself."C-Connor?" He smiled up at his mom.
    "That sounds wonderful sweetie!" Heidi scratched behind Connor's ear before walking off."I'm gonna fix dinner, get to know Connor a little better." Her choice of words made Evan feel weird. She spoke like this cat was a person.
Evan examined Connor closer. He was a semi-long haired breed that Evan couldn't place the name of(but he later found out it he was a Chantilly-Tiffany) He had black fur that faded to grey brown or white in some places like his tail tip or chest.
Evan made eye contact for longer then he should have because Connor clawed at his nose and ran under the coffee table. Evan sighed. He wouldn't call this a friend.

(You know how Evan is a tree expert? Me too...but with cats. Not to brag or anything. That sounds really lame I'm sorry. I also apologize for how weird this seems but it'll get better I hope.)
(Another note I expect Evan's drawing style to look a little like this:

I drew it when all I had was a ink pen and one hour to do nothing I'm sorry I ruined your eyes
