Theodore fought against his drug addiction and, above all, himself.
His mother took her own life when he was thirteen because of his abusive father, who also abused him after his mother left.
He started hurting himself and was covered in scars. When that didn't help, he started taking drugs—anything he could get his hands on.
By the time he was 17, he was in one of the hardest times of his life and in a terrible state. It was so dark for him.
Yet, there was a tiny light: Vic. The two knew each other since ever because their families were business partners and closely connected. They had been together since they were 14.
He loved her. He loved her so much that it hurt; it hurt that she had to struggle with his drug addiction, too. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop.
