    on a snowy day, 14-year-old billy prescott walks into his new foster home, his eyes fixed on the house around him, his new foster mother sandra gracia looks at him with a smile.

    Sandra: well billy, this is your new home, i hope you like it!

    than suddenly, the youngest foster child matilda rushes up to billy and hugs him.

    Matilda: omg welcome home billy! i’ve always wanted a new brother!

    billy looks at matilda with a confused expression.

    Sandra: that’s matilda, she’s very energetic, matilda, honey, give billy some space.

    Matilda: sorry mommy!

    matilda lets go of billy and goes back to playing with her dolls.

    billy continues looking around the room before he notices eugene playing video games.

    Sandra: that’s eugene, he’s probably not gonna pay attention much since he’s always stuck playing video games.

    janet, the oldest foster child walks downstairs and notices billy.

    Janet: hey mom, is this billy?

    Sandra: yes janet, this is billy, billy, this is janet, the oldest.

    Janet: hey.

    janet waves at billy before walking off towards the kitchen.

    billy continues staying quiet until he notices pedro on the couch, listening to music.

    Sandra: that’s pedro, he’s very shy and won’t talk to anyone but don’t take it personally, he’s always like that.

    sandra grabs billy’s arm and leads him upstairs.

    Sandra: now, let’s show you your room, you’ll be sharing it with freddy, he’s the same age as you.

    the two make it towards the bedroom and see freddy sitting at his desk, drawing a picture.

    Sandra: hey freddy, this is billy, he’ll be sharing a room with you, i hope you two boys get along.

    sandra glances at them before leaving the room.

    freddy glances at billy and just smiles at him.

    Freddy: hi there, i’m freddy, you’re not much of a talker, are you?

    billy just stares at freddy with a blank expression, wondering if he should say something or not.

    freddy grabs his crutch and stands up, taking a few steps towards billy.

    billy notices the crutch but doesn’t say anything.

    freddy notices and just laughs.

    Freddy: your wondering about my crutch, aren’t you? i’ve always been like this, a lot of kids at school usually make fun of me because of it but i’m used to it, whenever it’s physical or not, i don’t mind.

    billy just stares at him before noticing the superhero painting on the desk.

    Billy: …were you always a superhero fan?

    Freddy: yeah i have, do you like superheroes? if you do, who’s your favorite?
