************************************************************************************************************************************************************

When I was first born, I was like any other new born confused, curious, and scared. Then I met him, the man who created me, Walt Disney. The two of us soon became friends and we began to work together to make others laugh.

He showed me the world and made me many cartoons for me to star in and thanks to him, I soon became a star.

For awhile, everything was perfect. I had everything I wanted. My girl, my cartoons, my friends, my creator at my side.

But then that all changed.

One day I was called in by the president of Universal studios and we talked. He told me that he wanted me to sign a contract that would make me belong to Universal studios and not Walt. At first I didn't want to, but the president that if I didn't join him, I would never make another cartoon again.

I couldn't stand the thought of that. And everyone else had joined him, so I did the worst thing possible.

I accepted his offer and left Walt forever.

When Walt heard what the others and I did, he was heart broken. I didn't look at him, but I could hear it in his voice as he talked to the president.

"Just protect yourself, Charlie." he said in a low voice. "If they all did it to me, they'll do it to you."

That was the last thing I ever heard him say before he walked out of my life forever.

I went on with my life, still doing my cartoons. But I'll admit, it wasn't the same without Walt. Making cartoons used to be fun, but now it was work.

One day I picked up the news paper and saw Walt had a new toon. Mickey Mouse was his name. Before I knew it, that Mickey and Walt were everywhere. Mickey had reached new heights that I never could.

Soon I came to hate that mouse. I felt as if he had taken my place in Walt's heart, no... He had a bigger place then I ever did. I could see in the pictures that Walt really loved that mouse and went passed the limits to give him everything, to make him famous. And I could see that that mouse would do anything to make Walt's dreams come true.

As the years passed I regretted my decision to leave Walt and I wondered what would have happened if I had stayed with him. Would I be as famous as Mickey? Would I have same place in Walt's heart?

Then one day in 1966, I heard the worst news ever.

Walt was dead.

Gone forever.

When I heard the news, I cried. I couldn't believe it. I never got to thank him for all the good times we had, for creating me. I never got to say goodbye.

I never got to say I'm sorry!

Years, years later I finally got to meet Mickey Mouse, but surprisingly I didn't really hate him.

Something about him just reminded me of Walt and because of that, I couldn't hate him.

"I finally did it." he had said. "I made Walt's wish come true. You're finally back under Walt's name." When I heard this my eyes welled up with tears when I realized that Walt never forgot me. All this time he was thinking of us being together again.

I just wish I could have seen him again.
