## Background

Ozzy was born and raised in Columbia in the 1980s. He started his first day of high school at the age of 15. One of the classes, he took was drama. During his first day of drama class, Ozzy met a young opossum named Gladys. Upon meeting her for the first time, Ozzy was willing to win her heart but didn't know how. While he was on his way to the cafeteria, he spotted a poster for the play, *Cinderella,* he also learned that Gladys is Cinderella. He knew that if gets the part of the prince, he'll have the opportunity to kiss Gladys.

The auditions were complicated but Ozzy successfully got the part of the prince. While Ozzy was using his time in drama to prepare for the play, he developed a friendship with Gladys. On the night of the play, Gladys didn't show up, so Ozzy went to her house to see why she was running late. Once entering her house, Ozzy discovered that Gladys was on her bed, crying. Calmly, he asked Gladys what the problem was. She revealed to Ozzy that the glass slipper, she's supposed to take care, broke and she can't replace it.

Ozzy comforted Gladys and told her that they'll be able to work something out. The two opossums recreated the slipper best they could and returned to the school for the play. With the recreated slipper, the play was a success. Once the curtains closed, Gladys kissed Ozzy and thanked him for making her dream come true. He calmly asked Gladys if she would like to get ice cream and she said yes.

As the years went by, Ozzy and Gladys got married and they had a daughter named Heather. Gladys stayed at home to watch her daughter and Ozzy worked as a mechanic with his friends from high school. When Heather turned 10 years old, Gladys became sick and she was diagnosed with polio. Fearing that he'll lose his wife, Ozzy took time off from work to spend time with her and his daughter. 2 weeks later, Gladys passed away and Ozzy was left as a widower.

The next couple of months was hard for both Ozzy and Heather. By the time, Heather started high school, Ozzy returned to work where he received a warm welcome from his friends.

But after he marrying Gladys and becoming a father, Ozzy began to take his responsibilities seriously. He gave up his dream as an actor because he knew that his family and future mattered more than it.

Ozzy was also insecure and anxious about losing his wife for two reasons. First, he was afraid of being alone. He wouldn't have anyone to talk when he's scared, sad or frustrated. Second, with him being a widower, Ozzy's afraid that he won't be able to take care of his daughter, Heather. Ozzy tries everything to become the best father he can.
